From 8f4e67f152a9625a1c66c20de00679286b2c187c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Wladimir J. van der Laan" Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2015 20:12:08 +0200 Subject: net: Automatically create hidden service, listen on Tor Starting with Tor version 0.2.7.1 it is possible, through Tor's control socket API, to create and destroy 'ephemeral' hidden services programmatically. https://stem.torproject.org/api/control.html#stem.control.Controller.create_ephemeral_hidden_service This means that if Tor is running (and proper authorization is available), bitcoin automatically creates a hidden service to listen on, without user manual configuration. This will positively affect the number of available .onion nodes. - When the node is started, connect to Tor through control socket - Send `ADD_ONION` command - First time: - Make it create a hidden service key - Save the key in the data directory for later usage - Make it redirect port 8333 to the local port 8333 (or whatever port we're listening on). - Keep control socket connection open for as long node is running. The hidden service will (by default) automatically go away when the connection is closed. --- src/net.cpp | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'src/net.cpp') diff --git a/src/net.cpp b/src/net.cpp index e18e8d0e2..9d01f2557 100644 --- a/src/net.cpp +++ b/src/net.cpp @@ -216,6 +216,7 @@ void AdvertizeLocal(CNode *pnode) } if (addrLocal.IsRoutable()) { + LogPrintf("AdvertizeLocal: advertizing address %s\n", addrLocal.ToString()); pnode->PushAddress(addrLocal); } } -- cgit v1.2.3 From 09c1ae1c01076f64fe0654f371200668306e5e18 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Wladimir J. van der Laan" Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2015 17:48:45 +0200 Subject: torcontrol improvements and fixes - Force AUTHCOOKIE size to be 32 bytes: This provides protection against an attack where a process pretends to be Tor and uses the cookie authentication method to nab arbitrary files such as the wallet - torcontrol logging - fix cookie auth - add HASHEDPASSWORD auth, fix fd leak when fwrite() fails - better error reporting when cookie file is not ok - better init/shutdown flow - stop advertizing service when disconnected from tor control port - COOKIE->SAFECOOKIE auth --- src/net.cpp | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) (limited to 'src/net.cpp') diff --git a/src/net.cpp b/src/net.cpp index 9d01f2557..ada4a1bb6 100644 --- a/src/net.cpp +++ b/src/net.cpp @@ -263,6 +263,14 @@ bool AddLocal(const CNetAddr &addr, int nScore) return AddLocal(CService(addr, GetListenPort()), nScore); } +bool RemoveLocal(const CService& addr) +{ + LOCK(cs_mapLocalHost); + LogPrintf("RemoveLocal(%s)\n", addr.ToString()); + mapLocalHost.erase(addr); + return true; +} + /** Make a particular network entirely off-limits (no automatic connects to it) */ void SetLimited(enum Network net, bool fLimited) { -- cgit v1.2.3
