Comment (by arma):

 Looking at the open tickets in milestone 0.2.7, we have:

 Crashes, probably should backport:

 * #18710 (assert on surprising input to local DNSPort)
 * #19152 (difficult-to-trigger crash when openssl runs out of memory)

 Probably no need to backport:

 * #19150 (pointer arithmetic issue, not thought exploitable)
 * #19203 (tor might not warn if you reference an unNamed relay by
 nickname)

 And then there is this one, which isn't listed anywhere as pending on
 0.2.7, but I think we want it:

 * #20384 (prevent remote crash)
