"Tor Code Audit Finds 17 Vulnerabilities"
A comprehensive code security audit focusing on several components of the Tor anonymity network conducted by researchers at Radically Open Security discovered more than a dozen vulnerabilities, including an issue classified as "high risk." The researchers conducted that audit between April and August 2023, covering the Tor browser, exit relays, exposed services, infrastructure, and testing and profiling tools. The audit, a crystal box penetration test (where the tester has access to the source code), uncovered a total of 17 security issues.
