- o Major bugfixes (security):
- - Resist a hashtable-based CPU denial-of-service attack against
- relays. Previously we used a naive unkeyed hash function to look up
- circuits in a circuitmux object. An attacker could exploit this to
- construct circuits with chosen circuit IDs in order to try to create
- collisions and make the hash table inefficient. Now we use a SipHash
- construction for this hash table instead. Fixes bug 40391; bugfix on
- 0.2.4.4-alpha. This issue is also tracked as TROVE-2021-005.
