Hmm, this sounds like a bug report then :-/ Apps should not be able to use the control port, as far as I know. I don't think its possible to allow apps to use the Tor control port in a secure way, unless there is some kind of query-only "guest" mode.
Orbot should really use ControlSocket to use a UNIX domain socket on the filesystem so it can be protected by file permissions. .hc arrase: > NetCipher looks good, but, is there a method to find the orbot control port? > > I was reading the library and i cannot see a method to connect to the > daemon and i would like to manage my own hidden service. > > I don't understad why orbot uses a random port every run for control port, > do not adds an extra securety layer, is only tedious > > now i'm parsing proc file to catch the port number > > 2016-11-14 12:54 GMT+01:00 Hans-Christoph Steiner <[email protected] >> : > >> >> Hi, welcome! >> >> If you want to add Tor support to apps, you'll definitely be interested >> in our NetCipher library, which is where we do all our Tor integration >> work: >> >> https://github.com/guardianproject/netcipher >> >> .hc >> >> arrase: >>> Hi, I'm interested in developing applications under Tor and I've known >> your >>> project, I find it interesting. >>> >>> Here is my github: >>> >>> https://github.com/arrase >>> >>> I am currently interested in writing something like TorChat or Ricochet >> for >>> android >>> >>> >>> >>> _______________________________________________ >>> List info: https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/listinfo/guardian-dev >>> To unsubscribe, email: [email protected] >>> >> >> -- >> PGP fingerprint: EE66 20C7 136B 0D2C 456C 0A4D E9E2 8DEA 00AA 5556 >> https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=vindex&search=0xE9E28DEA00AA5556 >> _______________________________________________ >> List info: https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/listinfo/guardian-dev >> To unsubscribe, email: [email protected] >> > -- PGP fingerprint: EE66 20C7 136B 0D2C 456C 0A4D E9E2 8DEA 00AA 5556 https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=vindex&search=0xE9E28DEA00AA5556 _______________________________________________ List info: https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/listinfo/guardian-dev To unsubscribe, email: [email protected]
