116) <li>We need somebody to <a

118) good libraries out there for what we want? What are the first steps? Win
119) fame by getting credit when we put out a new release because of you!
120) <li>Server CPU load is high because clients keep asking to make new
121) circuits, which uses public key crypto. Possible defenses include:
122) using helper nodes (fixed entry nodes); rate limiting the number of
123) create cells handled per second; having clients retry failed extensions
124) a few times; implementing ssl sessions; and using hardware crypto when
125) available.</li>
126) <li>Website volume fingerprinting attacks (<a
127) href="http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#back01">Back et al</a>, <a
128) href="http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#hintz02">Hintz</a>).
129) Defenses include a large cell size, <a
130) href="http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#timing-fc2004">defensive dropping</a>,
131) etc. How well does each approach work?</li>
132) <li>The end-to-end traffic confirmation attack. We need to study
133) long-range dummies more, along with traffic shaping. How much traffic
134) of what sort of distribution is needed before the adversary is confident
135) he has won?</li>
136) <li>It's not that hard to DoS Tor servers or dirservers. Are puzzles
137) the right answer? What other practical approaches are there?</li>
138) <li>What sensitive info squeaks by privoxy? Are other html scrubbers
139) better?</li>
140) </ul>
141) 
142) <p>Designer project-lets:</p>
143) <ul>
144) <li>Right now the hidden service descriptors are being stored on the
145) dirservers, but any reliable distributed storage system would do (for
146) example, a DHT that allows authenticated updates). Can somebody figure
147) out our best options and decide if they're good enough?</li>
148) <li>How hard is it to patch bind or a DNS proxy to redirect requests
149) to Tor via our tor-resolve socks extension? What about to convert UDP
150) DNS requests to TCP requests and send them through Tor?</li>
151) <li>Tor provides anonymous connections, but if you want to keep multiple
152) pseudonyms in practice (say, in case you frequently go to two websites
153) and if anybody knew about both of them they would conclude it's you),
154) we don't support that well yet. We should find a good approach and
155) interface for handling pseudonymous profiles in Tor. See <a
156) href="http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/Dec-2004/msg00086.html">this
