# Status report for April 2015 - Attended SponsorR quaterly meeting in Washington DC
April 12th to 17th. Wrote a report on tor-internal@. - Review TorSoP proposals and made comment on some of them. Tor has accepted DonnchaC for the SoP. I will be his primary mentor and George the secondary. Pretty excited to start this project! Proposal here: https://gist.github.com/DonnchaC/03ad5cd0b8ead0ae9e30 - Worked on the tor CVEs released on the 6th fixed in a new tor release. Turns out that #15515 was (is) a pretty serious DoS on hidden service. This attack has been observed in the network after we've deployed the fix and a warning. - Worked on the HS popularity leak issue. See ticket #15714 for more information which is a parent ticket that is part of the complete issue of popularity. Also #4862 analysis and replied. - Improved functionnalities of the HS health monitoring tool. (#13209) https://gitlab.com/hs-health/hs-health It's now running full time. Also, big win for this tool, detection of #15801 (described in next bullet point). - Worked on #15801 which is a pretty serious issue where right now ~35% of HSDir in the network are not usable. Out of this, two tickets came to life and one of them reviving proposal 237. * https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/15849 * https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/15850 - Review and work on multiple patches for 0.2.7. Here some that worth mentionning: #15816: bug found by Yawning after the HSFECTH (#14847) was merged. With that ticket we got #15822 fixed and #15881 fully implemented. #6411: big review (ADD_ONION feature from Yawning). #14917: Important issue that I was able to reproduce and added a proposed solution. We don't have consensus on it yet. Please commnet! :) #14391: Finally merged! It's a big refactor of the HS descriptor cache lookup function.
