Like, an onion service whose clock is off by an hour, thus causing the hsdir to cache it for less time than we would otherwise expect? I don't think that's an issue because the lifetime field is the number of seconds after which the descriptor should expire; and not an absolute date string. So the lifetime says "3 hours" and HSDirs will hold it for 3 hours before expiring it, regardless of clock times. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/26769#comment:7> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
