Tor fixes some security vulnerabilities (0.2.2.34)

Source: Internet
Author: User

French researcher Eric filior claims to have discovered a critical vulnerability in Tor's anonymous network encryption system, allowing attackers to discover hidden nodes on the network and even exploit the vulnerability to control users' computers.

The vulnerability is related to Tor encryption implementation. Researchers did not disclose Attack Details. The Tor Project Foundation issued a statement to refute part of the Filiol statement, stating that his data is flawed and that his statement was exaggerated. It also pointed out that the researchers did not share the research data with Tor. Tor then released a new version of Tor 0.2.2.34, which fixes a series of security vulnerabilities, but it is irrelevant to the study of Filiol. Tor encourages users to upgrade immediately.
