- o Minor bugfixes:
- - Refrain from needlessly rejecting SOCKS5 requests that contain
- IP address strings when SafeSocks in enabled as this prevents
- user from connecting to IP address they know without relying on
- DNS for resolving. Fixes bug 22461, bugfix on Tor 0.2.6.2-alpha.
+ o Minor bugfixes (client, usability):
+ - Refrain from needlessly rejecting SOCKS5-with-hostnames and SOCKS4a
+ requests that contain IP address strings, even when SafeSocks in
+ enabled, as this prevents user from connecting to known IP addresses
+ without relying on DNS for resolving. SafeSocks still rejects SOCKS
+ connections that connect to IP addresses when those addresses are _not_
+ encoded as hostnames. Fixes bug 22461, bugfix on Tor 0.2.6.2-alpha.
