+The Tor Browser bundle incorporates Tor, Firefox, and the Vidalia user |
|
149 |
+interface (and optionally Pidgin IM). Components are pre-configured to |
|
150 |
+operate in a secure way, and it has very few dependencies on the |
|
151 |
+installed operating system. It has therefore become one of the most |
|
152 |
+easy to use, and popular, ways to use Tor on Windows. |
|
153 |
+<br /> |
|
154 |
+However, there is currently no comparable package for Linux and Mac OS |
|
155 |
+X, so this project would be to implement Tor Browser Bundle for these |
|
156 |
+platforms. This will involve modifications to Vidalia (C++), possibly |
|
157 |
+Firefox (C) then creating and testing the launcher on a range of |
|
158 |
+operating system versions and configurations to verify portability. |
|
159 |
+<br /> |
|
160 |
+Students should be familiar with application development on one or |
|
161 |
+preferably both of Linux and Mac OS X, and be comfortable with C/C++ |
|
162 |
+and shell scripting. |
|
163 |
+<br /> |
|
164 |
+Part of this project could be usability testing of Tor Browser Bundle, |
|
165 |
+ideally amongst our target demographic. |
|
166 |
+That would help a lot in knowing what needs to be done in terms of bug |
|
167 |
+fixes or new features. We get this informally at the moment, but a more |
|
168 |
+structured process would be better. |

|

+Tor 0.2.0.x系列的<a href="<svnsandbox>doc/design-paper/blocking.html">一个重要改进</a |
|
227 |
+>是提高了抵抗政府机关或者组织探测的能力。但是 Tor 的反审查设计在某些方面仍然需要 |
|
228 |
+更好的机制来改进。比如,现在 Tor 只能在一个 地址/端口 对上进行监听, |
|
229 |
+有<a href="<svnsandbox>doc/spec/proposals/118-multiple-orports.txt">建议放开这个限制</a>, |
|
230 |
+并允许客户端可以连接到任意给定的 Tor 地址和端口上,但是,这需要大量的工作。另外一个 |
|
231 |
+提高反审查能力的方案(更加复杂和困难)希望能够提高 Tor 对端口扫描的抵抗能力。现在,恶意 |
|
232 |
+的扫描者可以通过尝试连接一个假定的 Tor 主机,向其发送 Tor 协议包,并检查它的响应来确定 |
|
233 |
+它是否在运行<a href="<svnsandbox>doc/spec/proposals/125-bridges.txt"> Tor 网桥</a>。 |
|
234 |

|
325 |
+There are a number of status changes inside Tor of which the user may need |
|
326 |
+to be informed. For example, if the user is trying to set up his Tor as a |
|
327 |
+relay and Tor decides that its ports are not reachable from outside |
|
328 |
+the user's network, we should alert the user. Currently, all the user |
|
329 |
+gets is a couple log messages in Vidalia's 'message log' window, which they |
|
330 |
+likely never see since they don't receive a notification that something |
|
331 |
+has gone wrong. Even if the user does actually look at the message log, |
|
332 |
+most of the messages make little sense to the novice user. |
|
333 |
+<br /> |
|
334 |
+Tor has the ability to inform Vidalia of many such status changes, and |
|
335 |
+we recently implemented support for a couple of these events. Still, |
|
336 |
+there are many more status events the user should be informed of and we |
|
337 |
+need a better UI for actually displaying them to the user. |
|
338 |
+<br /> |
|
339 |
+The goal of this project then is to design and implement a UI for |
|
340 |
+displaying Tor status events to the user. For example, we might put a |
|
341 |
+little badge on Vidalia's tray icon that alerts the user to new status |
|
342 |
+events they should look at. Double-clicking the icon could bring up a |
|
343 |
+dialog that summarizes recent status events in simple terms and maybe |
|
344 |
+suggests a remedy for any negative events if they can be corrected by |
|
345 |
+the user. Of course, this is just an example and one is free to |
|
346 |
+suggest another approach. |
|
347 |
+<br /> |
|
348 |
+A person undertaking this project should have good UI design and layout |
|
349 |
+and some C++ development experience. Previous experience with Qt and |
|
350 |
+Qt's Designer will be very helpful, but are not required. Some |
|
351 |
+English writing ability will also be useful, since this project will |
|
352 |
+likely involve writing small amounts of help documentation that should |
|
353 |
+be understandable by non-technical users. Bonus points for some graphic |
|
354 |
+design/Photoshop fu, since we might want/need some shiny new icons too. |

369 |
+with, our unit test coverage should rise substantially, especially in |
|
370 |

|
645 |

|
646 |

|
647 |
+<a href="https://svn.torproject.org/svn/torctl/trunk/doc/howto.txt">Tor 控制协议</a> |
|
648 |
+中增加一个事件来报告一个电路在试图通过一个节点时成功或者失败的情况,这样,一个 |
|
649 |
+基于节点的监视器就可以通过这些事件报告来被动的收集其他节点的带宽和可靠性信息。 |
|
650 |
+这样一个扫描机制还可以讲某些节点的不正常情况也报告给认证服务器,但是,现在还没有 |
|
651 |
+这样的一个通信机制的实现,然而,我们的确需要它。 |

+<b>为Debian/Ubuntu提供更好的Tor+Vidalia的打包</b> |
|
659 |
+<b></b> |
|
660 |
+<br /> |
|
661 |
+目前在Debian/Ubuntu上,Vidalia 的缺省安装包运行的不算太好。当前的安装包用 debian-tor |
|
662 |
+用户缺省的以守护进程运行 Tor,但是没有在缺省的 torrc 文件中定义 |
|
663 |
+<a href="<svnsandbox>doc/spec/control-spec.txt">控制端口</a>。 |
|
664 |
+因此,Vidalia 会发现无法找到已经运行的 Tor 程序于是试图自行启动一个新的 Tor 进程, |
|
665 |
+然后,这个进程会失败并退出,Vidalia 会得到一个错误消息并报告给用户,用户会因此而 |
|
666 |
+感到困惑,他们实际上已经有一个可用的 Tor 进程了,但仍然被报告错误。 |
|
667 |
+<br /> |
|
668 |
+现在的解决方案是,告诉用户停止掉缺省的 Tor 守护进程,让 Vidalia 来启动 Tor,或者向 |
|
669 |
+用户解释如何在他们的 torrc 文件中设定控制端口和密码。Debian 上的一个更好的解决办法 |
|
670 |
+应该是使用 Tor 的ControlSocket,这样Vidalia可以通过Unix domain socket与 Tor 通讯,最好 |
|
671 |
+能够在 Tor 的 Debian 发布包中将其设定为缺省的方式,这样,如果用户同样用 debian-tor |
|
672 |
+组来运行 Vidalia的话,Vidalia就可以用基于文件的认证方式(cookie)来连接 Tor。 |
|
673 |
+<br /> |
|
674 |
+首先要做的是为 Vidalia 增加对 Tor 的 ControlSocket 的支持,开发并测试符合Debian和Ubuntu |
|
675 |
+标准的发布包,并确认它能够和已有的 Tor 发布包一起正常工作。我们可以为此提供一个资料库 |
|
676 |
+以及相应的host服务。 |
|
677 |
+<br /> |
|
678 |
+接下来的挑战是,既然在固定的位置(<code>/etc/tor/torrc</code>)可以找到 Tor 的控制文件, |
|
679 |
+那么我们应该可以找到一个办法允许 Vadilia 修改 Tor 的控制文件(torrc)。我们能想到的最好的 |
|
680 |
+办法是当 Vadilia 启动后它可以通过控制端口(ControlSocket)向 Tor 提供一个新的配置,但是, |
|
681 |
+有个问题是这可能会覆盖用户自己希望的配置。另外一个不错的想法是,由 Vadilia 创建一个临时 |
|
682 |
+配置文件并提示用户手工将其覆盖<code>/etc/tor/torrc</code>,这同样有个问题,用户会被 |
|
683 |
+要求直接操作文件,但通常我们不应该这样。 |
|
684 |
+<br /> |
|
685 |
+打算在这方面做点工作的志愿者,应该具备Debian的包管理相关的知识以及有一定的 C++ 开发经验, |
|
686 |
+Qt的经验不是必须的,但是多少会有些帮助。 |

+<b>Tor/Polipo/Vidalia 的自动更新框架</b> |
|
696 |
+<br /> |
|
697 |
+我们需要一个良好的可认证的更新框架。现在 Vidalia 通过检查 Tor 的目录信息,可以发现用户在 |
|
698 |
+运行一个较旧的或者不再被推荐的 Tor 版本,并通知用户。但它只是简单的弹出一个小小的消息框 |
|
699 |
+告诉用户他需要手动升级自己的 Tor 版本。我们的目标是能够扩展 Vidalia 的功能使之能够自动下载 |
|
700 |
+最新的 Tor 并自动安装。我们希望在可能的时候通过 Tor 来完成这个事情,但是也可以考虑其他 |
|
701 |
+更好的办法。如果时间许可,我们也希望可以一起更新 Tor 套件中的其他软件,比如 Polipo 和 Vidalia |
|
702 |
+自己。 |
|
703 |
+<br /> |
|
704 |
+要完成这项工作,研究者必须首先评估已有的自动更新框架,比如 OS X上的 Sparkle,并评估它们的 |
|
705 |
+功能,弱点,安全问题,以及与 Vidalia 的整合性。如果找不到合适的现成的解决方案,那么研究者就 |
|
706 |
+需要自行设计一个自动更新框架,并写出设计文档供其他开发者讨论和评估它的安全风险。研究者 |
|
707 |
+需要实现他自己的框架(或者整合一个既有的)并进行测试。 |
|
708 |
+<br /> |
|
709 |
+从事这项工作需要良好的 C++ 开发经验,Qt 的开发经验会有所帮助但不是必需的,同时,还需要充分 |
|
710 |
+了解常见的安全相关问题,比如包签名验证等。 良好的写作能力也是非常重要的,因为这项工作的一个 |
|
711 |
+重要步骤是首先要写出设计文档供讨论和评估,并以此决定它的实现优先度。 |

+The Tor project currently lacks a solid test suite to ensure that a |

774 |
+many known issues as possible. It should attempt to decloak the |

|

|
779 |
+the <a href="http://metasploit.com/research/projects/decloak/">metasploit |
|
780 |
+decloak website</a>. A person interested in defending Tor could start |
|
781 |
+by collecting as many workable and known methods for decloaking a |
|
782 |
+Tor user. (<a href="https://torcheck.xenobite.eu/">This page</a> may |
|
783 |
+be helpful as a start.) One should be familiar with the common pitfalls but |
|
784 |
+possibly have new methods in mind for implementing decloaking issues. The |
|
785 |
+website should ensure that it tells a user what their problem is. It |
|
786 |
+should help them to fix the problem or direct them to the proper support |
|

788 |
+to prevent Tor information leakage. |

|
799 |
+Provos's <a href="http://monkey.org/~provos/libevent/">Libevent</a> |
|
800 |
+library. Tor already uses Libevent for its low-level asynchronous IO |
|
801 |
+calls, and could also use Libevent's increasingly good implementations |
|
802 |
+of network buffers and of HTTP. This wouldn't be simply a matter of |
|
803 |
+replacing Tor's internal calls with calls to Libevent: instead, we'll |
|
804 |
+need to refactor Tor to use Libevent calls that do not follow the |
|
805 |
+same models as Tor's existing backends. Also, we'll need to add |
|
806 |
+missing functionality to Libevent as needed — most difficult likely |
|
807 |
+will be adding OpenSSL support on top of Libevent's buffer abstraction. |
|
808 |
+Also tricky will be adding rate-limiting to Libevent. |

+<b>Improving the Tor QA process: Continuous Integration for Windows builds</b> |
|
816 |
+<br /> |
|
817 |
+It would be useful to have automated build processes for Windows and |
|
818 |
+probably other platforms. The purpose of having a continuous integration |
|
819 |
+build environment is to ensure that Windows isn't left behind for any of |
|
820 |
+the software projects used in the Tor project or its accompanying.<br /> |
|
821 |
+Buildbot may be a good choice for this as it appears to support all of |
|
822 |
+the platforms Tor does. See the |
|
823 |
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BuildBot">wikipedia entry for |
|
824 |
+buildbot</a>.<br /> |
|
825 |
+There may be better options and the person undertaking this task should |
|
826 |
+evaluate other options. Any person working on this automatic build |
|
827 |
+process should have experience or be willing to learn how to build all |
|
828 |
+of the respective Tor related code bases from scratch. Furthermore, the |
|
829 |
+person should have some experience building software in Windows |
|
830 |
+environments as this is the target audience we want to ensure we do not |
|
831 |
+leave behind. It would require close work with the Tor source code but |
|
832 |
+probably only in the form of building, not authoring.<br /> |
|
833 |
+Additionally, we need to automate our performance testing for all platforms. |
|
834 |
+We've got buildbot (except on Windows — as noted above) to automate |
|
835 |
+our regular integration and compile testing already, |
|
836 |
+but we need to get our network simulation tests (as built in torflow) |
|
837 |
+updated for more recent versions of Tor, and designed to launch a test |
|
838 |
+network either on a single machine, or across several, so we can test |
|
839 |
+changes in performance on machines in different roles automatically. |

+specified by the user) to gather data in a self-contained way, with |
|
874 |
+parameters easily configurable by the user. Blossom is presently |
|
875 |
+implemented as a single Python script that interfaces with Tor using the |
|
876 |
+Controller interface and depends upon metadata about Tor nodes obtained |
|
877 |
+via external processes, such as a webpage indicating status of the nodes |
|
878 |
+plus publically available data from DNS, whois, etc. This project has |
|
879 |
+two parts: (1) Determine which additional metadata may be useful and |
|
880 |
+rework Blossom so that it cleanly obtains the metadata on its own rather |
|
881 |
+than depend upon external scripts (this may, for example, involve |

895 |
+Develop and implement a means of affording Blossom |
|
896 |
+users the ability to qualitatively describe the exit node that they |
|
897 |
+want. The Internet is an inconsistent place: some Tor exit nodes see |
|
898 |
+the world differently than others. As presently implemented, Blossom (a |
|
899 |
+tool for monitoring and selecting appropriate Tor circuits based upon |
|
900 |
+exit node requirements specified by the user) lacks a sufficiently rich |
|
901 |
+language to describe how the different vantage points are different. |
|
902 |
+For example, some exit nodes may have an upstream network that filters |
|
903 |
+certain kinds of traffic or certain websites. Other exit nodes may |
|
904 |
+provide access to special content as a result of their location, perhaps |
|
905 |
+as a result of discrimination on the part of the content providers |
|
906 |
+themselves. This project has two parts: (1) develop a language for |
|
907 |
+describing characteristics of networks in which exit nodes reside, and |
|
908 |
+(2) incorporate this language into Blossom so that users can select Tor |
|
909 |
+paths based upon the description. |
