Post by: SirNomDePlum on July 19, 2013, 11:15 am

What is the "Tor ControlPort "torrc" Rewrite Vulnerability"?

It is discussed here https://secunia.com/advisories/26301

Anything for us Tor users to be worried about? If yes, what are ways to defend ourselves?

Thanks.

Ignore this completely.  It's a vulnerability from 2007 and versions prior to 1.2.x.
