Hi there,

 

I want to report abnormal Firewall States since the update.

 

Since a week or two, (I believe with 0.4.9.10) tor started to excessively
use Firewall-States, far beyond what I observed beforehand.

 

In normal operation, I observed about 20k - 45k Firewall States for the
relay.

 

Yesterday, before I installed the update, I had 190k Firewall States,
related to Tor Relay Traffic.

 

The days before it cycled from 120 - 145k States. Also far more than normal.

 

Today, I see excessive Errors (> 20 Errors/Sek) in my Firewall, relating to
use of invalid Firewall States (pf: BAD State..) - all are Tor Related
Connections.

 

It would be nice if anyone could have a look, if your connections increased
also that much. I also wonder if this might be a type of attack?

 

Regardless of the odd connections, the relay is running well, no CPU peaks
and normal memory usage (602MB).

 

Best regards and have a nice weekend!

 

Joker
