Freshness: upstream tracker timestamp is available; use API updated time as primary recency signal.
CVE-2012-3518 low priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (tor), 16 status rows across 16 suites (hardy, lucid, natty, oneiric, precise, quantal, raring, saucy, trusty, upstream, utopic, vivid, wily, xenial, yakkety, zesty): released 11, ignored 4, DNE 1.
The networkstatus_parse_vote_from_string function in routerparse.c in Tor before 0.2.2.38 does not properly handle an invalid flavor name, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and daemon crash) via a crafted (1) vote document or (2) consensus document.
