#22728: Long-lived onion service circuits can enable guard discovery -------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: mikeperry | Owner: (none) Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Medium | Milestone: Tor: unspecified Component: Core Tor/Tor | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: guard-discovery, tor-hs | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: -------------------------------------+----------------------------------
Comment (by mikeperry): Ok, I agree. It seems like simply closing circuits is not going to buy us much here. How about providing the ability for clients to migrate circuits to an IP/RP? That way, if a client *should* rotate away from a node, it can. Additionally, if a node goes down because of DoS or any byzantine reason, this would mean that the circuit doesn't have to be destroyed. Basically, we could do conflux (https://www.cypherpunks.ca/~iang/pubs/conflux- pets.pdf) without the split-flow control stuff (at least not at first, though I suspect that the flow control pieces will be useful against congestion attacks). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/22728#comment:4> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
