Changes in version 0.6.3 - 2018-01-23
* FIXES #24432 https://bugs.torproject.org/24432
The production moat server had issues related to redirecting to
resources properly, which are now fixed.
* FIXES #24701 https://bugs.torproject.org/24701
Adds a special surprise for the special someone who has been
automatedly requesting bridges not through driving a browser, but
through a script which is so thoroughly stupid that it doesn't
even send the URL parameters for the CAPTCHA challenge and solution.
Their script will now be delayed for quite some time and then
rickrolled. Mess with the best, die like the rest.
* FIXES #24704 https://bugs.torproject.org/24704
Bridges returned to a single request are now filtered such that
there will never be two bridges from the same IPv4 /16 or IPv6 /64.
And includes the following general changes:
* ADDS unittests for the legacy code in bridgedb/Bridges.py,
bringing the total test coverage above 90% for the first time.
Changes in version 0.6.2 - 2017-12-20
* FIXES #24636 https://bugs.torproject.org/24636
The moat API specification included an extra response type which
could be sent if there was no overlap between transports the
client supported and those which the server supported. This has
been removed from the specification, which now describes the
behaviour moat has always exhibited: if there is no overlap, the
server responds with a CAPTCHA image response which includes the
list of transports it does support.
* FIXES #24637 https://bugs.torproject.org/24637
The moat server did not respond correctly with the specified JSON
API error type when there were no bridges available. It now
responds correctly with a 404 error whose details describe why the
request could not be fulfilled. The moat server also now logs
messages if there were not the configured
MOAT_BRIDGES_PER_RESPONSE number of bridges available.
Changes in version 0.6.1 - 2017-12-13
* ADDS a shell script, scripts/test-moat, for testing either a
locally-running moat server, or a remote one through a meek
tunnel.
Thanks to David Fifield for his work on meek, assistance setting
it up, and providing the first version of this script.
* FIXES #24433 https://bugs.torproject.org/24433
The test-moat script wasn't sending an X-Forwarded-For header,
which triggered a bug in the moat server, since the CAPTCHA
solution includes an HMAC based on the client's IP (forwarded
through all the several layers of tunnels/proxies).
* FIXES #24443 https://bugs.torproject.org/24443
Due to a difference between how booleans are parsed by Python's
json library and normal Python booleans, the moat server was
generating and returning QRCodes… regardless of whether the remote
client application asked for one. This is now fixed.
* FIXES #24460 https://bugs.torproject.org/24460
There was an unhandled error when sending certain (what appears to
be possibly malicious? but in a very strange way) requests to
BridgeDB's HTTPS distributor. The robots making the requests were
attempting to request bridges, but were presenting a CAPTCHA
solution without the correct HTML form field parameters present,
which isn't possible through normal usage of the web interface.
Whoever or whatever is doing this is now going to be endlessly
redirected so that they may forever spiral in their own private
internet hell. I reserve the right come up with a worse fate for
them later, should I get bored.
* FIXES #3015 https://bugs.torproject.org/3015
BridgeDB has had a partially-implemented concept of "buckets"
since the age of the dinosaurs: write some of the unallocated
bridges to a file which should (somehow) be manually distributed.
In addition to be unused and untested, there were several issues
with the buckets, the most significant of which were the inability
to request pluggable transports in a bucket and the fact that
buckets were not persistent in any way (e.g. if i request a bucket
of 50 bridges for Gomez and another with 50 for Morticia, they
might end up with some of the same bridges, further, tomorrow
they'll end up with 50 possibly different bridges than those they
received today). All of this code is now removed.
And includes the following general changes:
* FIXES issues with JSON quote syntax and a mistaken JSON API
"type" parameter in the specification of the moat server (in the
README).
Thanks to Mark Smith and Kathy Brade for pointing out the issues.
Changes in version 0.6.0 - 2017-11-15
* ADDS a new JSON API distributor called "moat", which is intended
for use for Tor Launcher to use to build an in-browser UI for
retrieving bridges.
* CHANGES the organisation of code to add a new
bridgedb.distributors package as well as a
bridgedb.distributors.common package for code shared between
multiple distributors.
Changes in version 0.5.0 - 2017-10-28
* FIXES #23957 https://bugs.torproject.org/23957
BridgeDB now supports bridge operators choosing how their bridge
will be distributed. See the "BridgeDistribution" torrc option in
tor's manpage for details.
* FIXES #16650 https://bugs.torproject.org/16650
BridgeDB is now accessible via select remote user interfaces
through a meek tunnel.
* FIXES #22998 https://bugs.torproject.org/23033
* FIXES #23033 https://bugs.torproject.org/23033
* FIXES #23034 https://bugs.torproject.org/23034
Upgrades BridgeDB to newer versions of Twisted and PyOpenSSL, and
fixes several issues due to non-backwards compatible changes
within those libraries.
Changes in version 0.4.0 - 2017-01-09
* FIXES #21162 https://bugs.torproject.org/21162
BridgeDB now supports arbitrarily blacklisting suspected bad
bridges from being distributed to clients. This is in response
to a suspected sybil attack by an unknown party. For more
details, see:
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-project/2016-December/000851.html
Changes in version 0.3.8 - 2016-09-22
* FIXES #20088 https://bugs.torproject.org/20088
BridgeDB now supports receiving descriptors from multiple Bridge
Authorities. See also #19690.
* FIXES #20087 https://bugs.torproject.org/20087
BridgeDB's version of Stem now supports parsing transport lines in
bridge extrainfo descriptors which contain IPv6 addresses
contained within square brackets.
Changes in version 0.3.7 - 2016-08-04
* FIXES #19691 https://bugs.torproject.org
BridgeDB (as running on Tor Project infrastructure) is now
invocated with a redirection of stdout and stderr to the flog
utility, in order to ensure that file handles are properly closed
and reopened when BridgeDB receives a SIGHUP.
And includes the following general changes:
* ADDS some files which were missing from BridgeDB PyPI packages
to the MANIFEST.in, so that they are now included.
Changes in version 0.3.6 - 2016-07-28
* FIXES #18237 https://bugs.torproject.org/18237
During descriptor parsing, BridgeDB saves copies of descriptor files
which couldn't be parsed, for later debugging purposes. To avoid
filing up the runtime directory with these files, we now delete files
older than 24 hours, every 24 hours.
* FIXES #18949 https://bugs.torproject.org/18949
Since we've upgraded the host machine which runs The Tor Project's
BridgeDB instance to Debian Jessie, this patch updates the testing
configurations and continuous integration infrastructure to run
tests on versions of Python dependencies in Debian Jessie and Stretch.
Changes in version 0.3.4 - 0.3.5 - 2015-11-30
* FIXES #14685 https://bugs.torproject.org/14685
This disables distribution of obfs2 bridges. This pluggable
transport has known distiguishers which allow adversaries to
identify client connections to obfs2 bridges, which in turn allows
these connections to be blocked/censored. With numerous obfs3 and
obfs4 bridges both readily available, users should not be
presented with an easily-configurable choice that is known to be
unsafe for the majority of users.
And includes the following general changes:
* ADDS error pages to BridgeDB's web interface, to provide
friendlier explanations for downtime, missing pages, and internal
server errors. For example: https://bridges.torproject.org/404
Changes in version 0.3.3 - 2015-10-25
* FIXES #12029 https://bugs.torproject.org/12029
BridgeDB now has an API for creating Bridge Distributors.
See the bridgedb.distribute module, or its developer documentation
at https://pythonhosted.org/bridgedb/bridgedb.distribute.html.
* FIXES PART OF #12506 https://bugs.torproject.org/12506
BridgeDB's two Distributors (HTTPS and Email) are now entirely
modularised and self-contained within separate subdirectories in
the source code. This is the first step to redesigning these
Distributors into their own separate processes, which will allow
the Distributors to remain functional while BridgeDB is reparsing
bridge descriptors.
* FIXES #15968 https://bugs.torproject.org/15968
BridgeDB now sends a Content-Security-Policy header which
explicitly allows Javascript, images, CSS, and fonts, from
https://bridges.torproject.org. All other types of content are
forbidden, including:
- embedding https://bridges.torproject.org within
<iframe>, <embed>, or <object>, and attempting to source
additional resources into its embedded context
- inline Javascript, including Javascript within SVG files
- inline CSS
- externally hosted fonts
- inline SVG, e.g. via the HTML5 <svg> tag
- any and all connections made via Javascript XMLHttpRequests,
WebSockets, sendBeacon(), and Web Workers
- plugins
- applets
BridgeDB's Content-Security-Policy does not yet make use of
certain newer, lesser supported, Content-Security-Policy v2.0
directives, such as "reflected-xss" and "frame-ancestors", but may
someday.
* FIXES #16273 https://bugs.torproject.org/16273
Several links to Tor Project gitweb URLs within the developer
documentation were outdated in that they still used the old gitweb
URL format. These are now updated.
Thanks to David Fifield for the bug report and patches.
* FIXES #16330 https://bugs.torproject.org/16330
BridgeDB can now handle bridge-server-descriptors with
extra-info-digest fields which have two values, as well as both
bridge-server-descriptors and bridge-extrainfo descriptors which
contain Ed25519 key material and signatures. See Tor proposals
#220 and #228 for more information on the changes to these
descriptors. Note that BridgeDB can now parse this information,
but does not yet make use of any Ed25519 cryptographic material
within bridge descriptors.
https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/proposals/220-ecc-id-keys.txt
https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/proposals/228-cross-certification-onionkeys.txt
Thanks to Atagar for patching Stem.
* FIXES #16616 https://bugs.torproject.org/16616
The HSDir flag can now be included within bridge-networkstatus
documents. BridgeDB now has unittests which guarantee that its
parsers safely ignore this flag, as well as any flags unknown to
BridgeDB which may appear in the future.
Thanks to Roger Dingledine for alerting me about the change.
* FIXES #16649 https://bugs.torproject.org/16649
Mobile users, and other users with small screen pixel ratios, will
find that the UI of BridgeDB's HTTPS Distributor has greatly
increased in usability and readability.
And includes the following general changes:
* FIXES an error when requesting the non-HTML version of the
bridges page (e.g. https://bridges.torproject.org/bridges?format=plain)
* REMOVES the `bridgedb test` commandline option.
BridgeDB's tests can be run via `python setup.py test` or `make
test` (or `make coverage` for generating HTML test coverage
statistics).
* CHANGES the HTTPS Distributor to HTML-encode Bridge Lines.
Previously, a malicious Pluggable Transport Bridge could include
in its PT arguments something like "evil=<script>[…]</script>" and
if such a Bridge were to be distributed to a user, that user's web
browser would execute the script (if Javacript was enabled).
Other characters, including non-ASCII, control characters, double
quotes, and backslashes, are also sanitised from Bridge Lines.
Thanks to Robert Ransom for the patches.
* CHANGES BridgeDB's module/package version numbers to be
compliant with PEP440.
* CHANGES the layout of BridgeDB's source code directories.
Rather than storing BridgeDB's source in "lib/bridgedb/", it is
now kept in "bridgedb/". Similarly, the directory containing
BridgeDB's tests has been moved from "lib/bridgedb/test/" to
"test/", which means that the tests are no longer installed when
running `python setup.py install` or `make install`.
* ADDS several improvements to the developer documentation at
https://pythonhosted.org/bridgedb.

Changes in version 0.3.2 - 2015-05-01
* FIXES a problem with the calculation of Levenshtein distances
between blacklisted email addresses and those on incoming
email. This fixes a problem with the fuzzy matching implemented in
#9385: https://bugs.torproject.org/9385.
* FIXES #1839 https://bugs.torproject.org/1839
BridgeDB's distributors now rotate their hashrings at
configurable scheduled intervals.
* FIXES #4771 https://bugs.torproject.org/4771
BridgeDB now records which of the HTTPS Distributor's
sub-hashrings are used for clients coming from Tor Exit nodes and
other known proxies.
* FIXES #12504 https://bugs.torproject.org/12504
Which Pluggable Transports BridgeDB distributes is now easily
configurable via the bridgedb.conf configuration file.
* FIXES #13202 https://bugs.torproject.org/13202
Old bridges running Tor-0.2.4.x with Pluggable Transports like
scramblesuit and obfs4proxy have a bug which causes them to not
include the PT arguments in the `transport` line they submit to
the BridgeAuthority in their extrainfo descriptors. This causes
BridgeDB to have broken bridge lines for these bridges.
For example, scramblesuit requires a `password=` in the
`ClientTransportPlugin` for clients to connect to it. If BridgeDB
receives a line in that bridge's extrainfo which says
`transport scramblesuit 1.2.3.4:1234` (without a password), then
when BridgeDB gives clients a bridge line for that bridge, it'll
look like "Bridge scramblesuit 1.2.3.4:1234" - meaning that it won't
work. This fixes the issue by excluding broken transports from
being distributed to clients.
* FIXES #15517 https://bugs.torproject.org/15517
For all clients who are coming from IPv6 addresses and are not
using Tor, who go to https://bridges.torproject.org, BridgeDB now
groups these clients together by /32. This "grouping" causes all
IPv6 clients within the same IPv6 /32 to get the same bridges.
Previously, BridgeDB grouped IPv6 clients by /64 (which is
ridiculously small, considering standard IPv6 allocation sizes).
For all clients who are coming from IPv4 addresses and are not
using Tor, BridgeDB now groups these clients together by /16.
Previously, BridgeDB grouped IPv4 clients by /24. (This latter
change was technically made as part of #4771.)
* FIXES #15464 https://bugs.torproject.org/15464
The setup procedure for creating a BridgeDB Continuous Integration
build machine is now simplified and generalised to include build
environments like Jenkins, not just TravisCI.
* FIXES #15866 https://bugs.torproject.org/15866
BridgeDB now ignores nearly all the information in the
networkstatus-bridges file created by the BridgeAuthority.
* ADDS benchmark tests to BridgeDB's test suite, and some of
BridgeDB's algorithms have been revised to improve their speed.
Changes in version 0.3.1 - 2015-03-24
* FIXES #14065 https://bugs.torproject.org/14065
When requesting vanilla IPv6 bridges from
https://bridges.torproject.org, BridgeDB would respond with IPv4
addresses. It now correctly responds with IPv6 addresses.
And includes the following general changes:
* FIXES an issue with the filtering of hashrings while answering
requests for Pluggable Transports. (commit 3ef37df6)
* FIXES the return value from the GnuPG interface initialization
function (bridgedb.crypto.initializeGnuPG) when creating a test
signature has failed.
* CHANGES the way BridgeDB handles the case where it parses to
duplicate extrainfo descriptors (for the same Bridge) which also
have identical timestamps. Before, we assumed this wasn't
possible. It turns out that it not only is possible, but that
usually every batch of descriptors has at least one Bridge with
such a set of perfectly identical extrainfo descriptors. Even
stranger, it appears that only Bridges started for the first time
quite recently (within the last eight hours) display this
behaviour. BridgeDB now logs these errors, rather than leaving
them unhandled.
(commit a27d7905)
* ADDS an environment variable check to setup.py which controls
whether the setup.py script tries to install the dependencies
listed in the requirements.txt file with easy_install. If the
environment variable BRIDGEDB_INSTALL_DEPENDENCIES=0, then
setup.py will not use easy_install. When BridgeDB is installed
via `make install` the default is to not use easy_install;
however, when installed via `python setup.py install`, the default
is to use easy_install to check for, find, and install
dependencies. (NOTE: the latter is *not* recommended.)
(commit d035fe64)
Changes in version 0.3.0 - 2015-03-21
* FIXES #2895 https://bugs.torproject.org/2895
BridgeDB no longer assumes that any extrainfo descriptor files are
in chronological order.
* FIXES #4405 https://bugs.torproject.org/4405
BridgeDB now has a built-in timer mechanism for scheduling
cronjobesque events. This is now used to routinely download and
parse the list of Tor exit relays in a completely asynchronous
manner.
* FIXES #9380 https://bugs.torproject.org/9380
BridgeDB now uses Stem (https://stem.torproject.org) for its
parsers, and has better classes for parsing and storing
information on Bridges and their Pluggable Transports.
Additionally, all of BridgeDB's parses and the new
Bridge/PluggableTransport classes all have 100% unittest and
integration test coverage.
* FIXES #10385 https://bugs.torproject.org/10385
BridgeDB now uses python-gnupg (https://pypi.python.org/gnupg)
instead of GPGME (libgpgme11 and pygpgme). Previously, when using
GPGME, BridgeDB was unable to sign emails with a subkey whose
master private key was not present, causing all signing to be
broken. Additionally, GPGME tried to access and modify the
BridgeDB users $HOME directory, and GPGME would also try to create
signatures with encryption-only subkeys, and try to
encrypt/decrypt with signing-only subkeys. All of these issues are
no more, because the writhing tangled mass of bugs known ad GPGME
is gone for good.
* FIXES #11216 https://bugs.torproject.org/11216
BridgeDB no longer parses any extrainfo descriptor files
cumulatively. Before, a Bridge which had a descriptor in
cached-extrainfo and in cached-extrainfo.new and supported obfs3,
obfs4, and scramblesuit transports would be parsed twice,
resulting in the Bridge having six transports. This is no longer
the case.
* HOTFIXES an issue with non-deterministic unittest failures in
the Mechanize-based integrations tests in
lib/bridgedb/test/test_https.py. hotfix/0.2.4-mechanize-tags
* FIXES part of #12507 https://bugs.torproject.org/12507
BridgeDB now has semi-automated developer documentation builds at
https://pythonhosted.org/bridgedb/.
* FIXES #12805 https://bugs.torproject.org/12805
BridgeDB is now packaged on PyPI, in the hopes that someday other
organisations will be able to run their own BridgeDBs.
* FIXES #12843 https://bugs.torproject.org/12843
BridgeDB will no longer distribute bridges which it believes are
located in Iran or Syria.
* FIXES #12872 https://bugs.torproject.org/12872
BridgeDB now has geolocational information for Bridges, telling it
which country each Bridge's primary ORAddress is within, as well
as geolocational information for each PluggableTransport address.
Thanks to Alden S. Page for the patches.
* FIXES #15155 https://bugs.torproject.org/15155
The instructions for obtaining a copy of Tor Browser should now be
more clear.
Thanks to Jens Kubieziel, Nick Mathewson, and Peter Palfrader.
And includes the following general changes:
* CHANGES BridgeDB's continuous integration infrastructure to run
tests for:
- Twisted-13.2.0 (Debian Wheezy version),
- Twisted-14.0.2 (Debian Jessie version), and
- Twisted-15.0.0 (latest and greatest)
As well as testing both:
- pyOpenSSL-0.13.1 (Debian Wheezy version), and
- pyOpenSSL-0.14 (Debian Jessie version).

Changes in version 0.2.4 - 2015-02-03
* HOTFIXES a UnicodeDecodeError resulting from patches for #12627.
https://bugs.torproject.org/12627
* FIXES #9874 https://bugs.torproject.org/9874
BridgeDB now has integration tests for all bridge distributors.
Thanks to trygve for the patches.
* FIXES #12871 https://bugs.torproject.org/12871
Bridge Buckets now work, even if the code for calculating Bridge
stability is disabled.
Thanks to Matt Finkel for the patches.
* FIXES part of #12029 https://bugs.torproject.org/12029
Major sections of the bridgedb.Bridges module, which holds
BridgeDB's main data structures for storing and parsing Bridges,
have been refactored in preparation for upcoming changes to use
Stem's parsers (see #9380 https://bugs.torproject.org/9380)
* FIXES #12932 https://bugs.torproject.org/12932
Arguments for Pluggable Transports in the bridge lines which
BridgeDB distributes to users are now properly
space-separated. This issue was affecting the deployment of the
obfs4 PT (see #12130 https://bugs.torproject.org/12130).
* FIXES #13123 https://bugs.torproject.org/13123
Previously, there were two additional whitespace characters at the
beginning of bridge lines handed out by BridgeDB's HTTPS
distributor, which would be annoyingly copy+pasted into TorLauncher
and torrcs, etc. These are now gone.
* FIXES #12664 https://bugs.torproject.org/12664
Previously, for the bridge lines handed out by BridgeDB's HTTPS
distributor, the newlines were not properly pasted when a user
would copy+paste the lines. This is now fixed. Additionally, there
is now a "Select All" button (JS must be enabled) to select all
text for the bridge lines, to attempt to reduce user copy+paste
errors. If the display area which contains the bridge lines is
clicked, and JS is enabled, it has the same effect as clicking the
"Select All" button.
* FIXES #14064 https://bugs.torproject.org/14064
The bridge lines handed out by BridgeDB's HTTPS distributor are
now displayed with a horizontal scrollbar if they are too long to
fit into the display area.
* FIXES #11345 https://bugs.torproject.org/11345
BridgeDB now supports giving users QRCodes for their bridge lines,
to facilitate getting bridges into Tails and onto mobile devices.
* FIXES #12130 https://bugs.torproject.org/12130
BridgeDB's distributors now have options to distribute obfs4 bridges.
And includes the following general changes:
* CHANGES the integration tests based on Mechanize to only run on
CI servers, not locally on developers laptops, since it requires
the running BridgeDB test/staging instance to offer a plaintext
HTTP interface. See commit 24acf6a72.
https://gitweb.torproject.org/bridgedb.git/commit/?id=24acf6a72931c602631c97dbbeb582c22cf446cb
* ADDS better installation instructions in README.rst for
developers who wish to test their changes to BridgeDB.
Thanks to Alden Page for the patch.
Changes in version 0.2.3 - 2014-07-26
* FIXES #5463 https://bugs.torproject.org/5463
BridgeDB can now OpenPGP sign outgoing emails.
* FIXES #9385 https://bugs.torproject.org/9385
BridgeDB now has the ability to blacklist email addresses, and
configurable options to fuzzy match and block addresses which are
similar enough to those in the blacklist.
* FIXES #11139 https://bugs.torproject.org/11139
You can now email BridgeDB from Riseup email addresses!
* FIXES #12147 https://bugs.torproject.org/12147
An additional issue with BridgeDB's code for scheduling actions
was identified by Robert Ransom, who also provided a unittest to
demonstrate the issue and test for future regressions. The issue
pointed out has also been fixed.
* FIXES #12635 https://bugs.torproject.org/12635
The links in BridgeDB's email and HTTPS distributor UIs have been
changed from the obsolete
https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en#downloads-beta
to https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.
* FIXES #12650 https://bugs.torproject.org/12650
BridgeDB's translation files sometimes take a little while to
update because real live human volunteers need to go to
Transifex.org and convert the strings between languages. Then I
need to import the strings, check all of them by hand to make sure
there's no funny business which could harm users in them, and then
commit all the diffs. Sadly, there isn't much more we can do to
speed up this process, so sometimes BridgeDB's UI falls back to
English when it doesn't have new enough translations files. Sorry!

Changes in version 0.2.2 - 2014-06-06
* FIXES #9874 https://bugs.torproject.org/9874
BridgeDB's email and HTTPS distributors were written in a manner
that makes them largely impossible to write unittests for. Since
the recent rewrite of BridgeDB's email distributor server backends
for version 0.2.1, BridgeDB email distributor is now testable and
has near 100% code coverage, see
https://coveralls.io/r/isislovecruft/bridgedb
* FIXES #12086 https://bugs.torproject.org/12086
BridgeDB was found to accept incoming emails sent to any email
address whose local part included the word bridges, e.g. emails
sent to '[email protected]' would be responded to as if
they were destined for BridgeDB's real email address.
- BridgeDB now strictly checks that the local part of the email
address that an incoming email was sent to (after removing plus
aliases, i.e. '+es_ES', '+fa', etc.) exactly matches BridgeDB
configured email address username.
- BridgeDB now checks that the domain name portion of the email
address that an incoming email was sent to either matches the
domain name portion of BridgeDB's configured email address, or
is a subdomain of that domain.
* FIXES #12089 https://bugs.torproject.org/12089
There has been a bug for quite some time now where BridgeDB could
be used to email arbitrary email addresses (as long as these
addresses were ones which BridgeDB allows, i.e. Gmail or Yahoo
email addresses). This was due to BridgeDB not checking that the
email address used in the SMTP 'MAIL FROM:' command on an incoming
message matched the one used in that email's 'From:'
header.
- BridgeDB now checks that the email addresses in the SMTP 'MAIL
FROM:' and the 'From:' header on that incoming email match, in
addition to the previous checks that the email address' domain
is in the set of allowed domains.
* FIXES #12090 https://bugs.torproject.org/12090
BridgeDB has been replying with an empty email. I don't actually
know for sure if this one is fixed. Before deploying version
0.2.1, the continuous integration tests showed email responses
being correctly generated, and I was also able to receive
correctly formed email responses from BridgeDB on a local testing
instance on my laptop. It appears that this bug occurs only on the
deployment server at ponticum.torproject.org, possibly due to the
outdated Python version in Debian Wheezy. I have not been able to
reproduce this bug on any other machine.
* FIXES #12091 https://bugs.torproject.org/12091
BridgeDB wasn't properly ignoring emails whose DKIM signature
verification header read "X-DKIM-Authentication-Results: dunno".
- Bridgedb now marks incoming emails which have a
"X-DKIM-Authentication-Results: dunno" header as invalid and
ignores them.
* FIXES #12147 https://bugs.torproject.org/12147
If a user refreshed https://bridges.torproject.org/bridges after
successfully solving a CAPTCHA, BridgeDB would reply with a new
set of bridges for each page refresh. This was due to the use of
`getInterval()` in `IPBasedDistributor.getBridgesForIP()`. The
correct function to use is `getIntervalStart()`. This had been
noted in a "XXX FIXME" comment above the call for quite some time,
however, when the `bridgedb.schedule` (previously called
`bridgedb.Time`) module was revised to support CAPTCHA timeouts
(#11215), the call to `getInterval()` was mistakenly not replaced
with the correct function.
- BridgeDB CAPTCHAs must be solved within 10 minutes.
- Hashring rotation for bridges in BridgeDB HTTPS distributor
occurs every 3 hours. Refreshing the page with bridges on it
will return these same bridges for that time period, and
afterwards redirect back to the CAPTCHA page.

"Unfortunately, peanut butter!"
You guys totally just made my day. Thanks.
