Descriptions

The daemon in Tor through 0.4.1.8 and 0.4.2.x through 0.4.2.6 does not verify that a rendezvous node is known before attempting to connect to it, which might make it easier for remote attackers to discover circuit information. NOTE: The network team of Tor claims this is an intended behavior and not a vulnerability

** EN DISPUTA ** El demonio en Tor hasta la versión 0.4.1.8 y versiones 0.4.2.x hasta la versión 0.4.2.6, no comprueba que un nodo rendezvous sea conocido antes de intentar conectarse a él, lo que podría facilitar a atacantes remotos descubrir información del circuito. NOTA: El equipo de red de Tor afirma que este es un comportamiento previsto y no una vulnerabilidad.
