Several denial-of-service issues have
been discovered in Tor, a connection-based low-latency anonymous communication
system.

Jowr discovered that very high DNS query load on a relay could
trigger an assertion error.

A relay could crash with an assertion error if a buffer of exactly
the wrong layout was passed to buf_pullup() at exactly the wrong
time.

Furthermore, this update disables support for SSLv3 in Tor. All
versions of OpenSSL in use with Tor today support TLS 1.0 or later.

well as the list of directory authority servers, which Tor clients use
to bootstrap and who sign the Tor directory consensus document.
