<title>Tor: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
<synopsis>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Tor, the most severe of
which may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.

<background>
<p>Tor is an implementation of second generation Onion Routing, a
connection-oriented anonymizing communication service.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Tor:</p>
<ul>
<li>When configured as client or bridge, Tor uses the same TLS
certificate chain for all outgoing connections (CVE-2011-2768).
</li>
<li>When configured as a bridge, Tor relays can distinguish incoming
bridge connections from client connections (CVE-2011-2769).
</li>
<li>An error in or/buffers.c could result in a heap-based buffer overflow
(CVE-2011-2778).
</li>
</ul>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code or cause a
Denial of Service. Furthermore, a remote relay the user is directly
connected to may be able to disclose anonymous information about that
user or enumerate bridges in the user's connection.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All Tor users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/tor-0.2.2.35"
</code>
</resolution>
