Description

The daemon in Tor through 0.4.1.8 and 0.4.2.x through 0.4.2.6 does not verify that a rendezvous node is known before attempting to connect to it, which might make it easier for remote attackers to discover circuit information. NOTE: The network team of Tor claims this is an intended behavior and not a vulnerability

Affected configurations

• torproject tor (<= 0.4.1.8) • torproject tor (>= 0.4.2.0 <= 0.4.2.6)
