Comment 1 Jan Lieskovsky 2008-12-09 10:00:42 UTC

This issue affects all versions of the tor package, as shipped
with Fedora releases of 8, 9 and 10.

Please upgrade to latest upstream packages or apply the above patch.

CVE description missing in the comment #0:

Tor before 0.2.0.32 does not properly process the ClientDNSRejectInternalAddresses configuration option in situations where an exit relay issues a policy-based refusal of a stream, which allows remote exit relays to have an unknown impact by mapping an internal IP address to the destination hostname of a refused stream.

Comment 3 Tomas Hoger 2008-12-09 10:23:20 UTC

All current Fedora versions are already updated to upstream version 0.2.0.23:
