+Changes in version 0.2.1.29 - 2011-01-15
+  o Major bugfixes (security):
+    - Fix a heap overflow bug where an adversary could cause heap
+      corruption. This bug potentially allows remote code execution
+      attacks. Reported by "debuger". Fixes CVE-2011-0427. Bugfix on
+      0.1.2.10-rc.
+    - Prevent a denial-of-service attack by disallowing any
+      zlib-compressed data whose compression factor is implausibly
+      high. Fixes the second part of bug 2324; reported by "doors".
+
+  o Minor bugfixes:
+    - Prevent calls from Libevent from inside Libevent log handlers.
+      This had potential to cause a nasty set of crashes, especially
+      if running Libevent with debug logging enabled, and running
+      Tor with a controller watching for low-severity log messages.
+      Bugfix on 0.1.0.2-rc. Fixes bug 2190.
+    - Fix compilation on mingw when a pthreads compatibility library
+      has been installed. (We don't want to use it, so we shouldn't
+      be including pthread.h.) Fixes bug 2313; bugfix on 0.1.0.1-rc.
+    - Add a check for SIZE_T_MAX to tor_realloc() to try to avoid
+      underflow errors there too. Fixes bug 2324.
+    - Fix a bug where we would assert if we ever had a
+      cached-descriptors.new file (or another file read directly into
+      memory) of exactly SIZE_T_CEILING bytes. Found by doors; fixes
+      bug 2326; bugfix on 0.2.1.25.
+    - Fix a bug where we would declare that we had run out of virtual
+      addresses when the address space was only half-exhausted. Bugfix
+      on 0.1.2.1-alpha.
+    - Correctly handle the case where AutomapHostsOnResolve is set but no
+      virtual addresses are available. Fixes bug2328, bugfix on
+      0.1.2.1-alpha. Bug found by doorss.
+    - Correctly handle wrapping around to when we run out of virtual
+      address space. Found by cypherpunks, bugfix on 0.2.0.5-alpha.
+    - Fix a bug with handling misformed replies to reverse DNS lookup
+      requests in DNSPort. Bugfix on Tor 0.2.0.1-alpha. Related to a
+      bug reported by doorss.
+    - Fix some potential asserts and partsing issues with grossly
+      malformed router caches. Fixes bug 2352. Found by doorss. Bugfix
+      on Tor 0.2.1.27.
+    - Zero out a few more keys in memory before freeing them. Fixes bug
+      2384 and part of bug 2385. These key instances found by
+      "cypherpunks". Bugfix on 0.0.2pre9.
+
+  o Minor features:
+    - Update to the January 1 2011 Maxmind GeoLite Country database.
+    - Introduce output size checks on all of our decryption functions.
+
+  o Build changes:
+    - Tor does not build packages correctly with Automake 1.6 and earlier;
+      added a check to Makefile.am to make sure that we're building with
+      Automake 1.7 or later.
+
+
 Changes in version 0.2.1.28 - 2010-12-17
   Tor 0.2.1.28 does some code cleanup to reduce the risk of remotely
   exploitable bugs. We also took this opportunity to change the IP address
