Tor · Tor · CVE-2017-0376
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Tor versions prior to 0.3.0.8
**Description**
The issue allows for a denial of service, causing an assertion failure and daemon exit in the `connection edge process relay cell` function. This occurs when a BEGIN DIR cell is sent on a rendezvous circuit.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 0.3.0.8, update to version 0.3.0.8 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `connection edge process relay cell` function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
