Is it possible to be sure that one of these connecting clients is in fact a client and not just intermediate relay in the circuit? How many relays with guard flag are there? What is the percentage of relays with guard flag set in population of all relays? Recently there was a bug corrected (#17772) when all relays were treated like entry guards, while only relays with a guard flag should be treated like entry guards. Correcting this bug obviously made "entry guard pool" smaller. Can it make correlation attack easier, as now the attacker has a smaller pool (only relays with the guard flag) to consider and it's more probable that client will connect to a relay controlled or observed by the attacker? - -- Oskar Wendel, [email protected] Pubkey at https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?search=0x6690CC52318DB84C -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJWhtQVAAoJEGaQzFIxjbhMwvYH/ioliWR+AtgoYa6+H0x1cWQE goOfHFT+z/GLQyMsIpfk102xznAGHLrpcCVH6Jek3D8RS66G1c3CRD58m2YjEt4j yduJ6gUP87mOluwHQP4nfpq75riAMMFUhpFZonVLtUyKfmZiem9C6U7BJjPCoU1Q Jy5SJx6khpoGpBIY8SWlwEvQ86+n2+lO/gTZQ5Ve+5Yt38u6UXvRi5BzBuqFMfqa r4MctjxyQe0SEkhfp9TwDNtlvS0SnZkG+vLFHRGTn1afP+JJeKkUXC0VnM7jrhOo /iMQXK6MGkmQg+/jDfepVQjx+EmJpIDBDozTo9jEUD0LvluHEn0qcqGpBdqLwHA= =Nbm1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
