00.13.008
Date: 2010-09-11
A temporary stable version. Accidentially, a lot of users of the stable version where led to install the beta version. For some days, until most of these users have updated to this temporary stable version, there will be no separate beta version. Please wait some days for a new beta version.
00.13.006
Date: 2010-09-10

- re-added the possibility to listen on all interfaces
- added a warning dialog with a check box for preventing DAU users from listening on all interfaces

- updated help files for JonDoFox 2.4.0
Bug fixes

00.13.001
Date: 2010-08-31
New security features
- Less secure services with only one Mix and only one operator (like Dresden) are now separated from the other services. They are only accessible by using a special filter named "Test/experimental services" in order to prevent a connection if a user does not deliberately want it.
- Anonymous HTTP header signature of the internal JonDo HTTP filter is now the same as the new JonDoFox HTTP header signature.
- If a connection from the JonDoFox browser is recognized, the internal HTTP filter of JonDo is deactivated for this connection, because JonDoFox can do the HTTP anonymization much better than JonDo alone.
- Removed global socket listener: JonDo can now only listen on "localhost" and cannot be forced any more to accept connections from outside your own computer (if you really need this feature, use JonDoConsole). This prevents others from misusing your JonDo connections in case you had accidentially allowed global access.
- Check type and ID of each account challenge in order to prevent first mixes from reading the user's balance.
Usability enhancements
- spanish translation
- Switching, disconnecting and reconnection of services is much faster now and more robust against network problems.
- Updates of infoservice and payment information on startup is much faster now.
- Support for a new type of payment rates: monthly rates that provide the same data volume each month. These rates will be introduced within the next weeks.
Bug fixes
- If anonymous mode is OFF: non-anonymous "direct" proxy can now open arbitrary long URLs, is immediately updated if its settings change and is automatically initialized when JonDo starts.
- Proxy authentication (proxy login with username and password) works again.
- Services that change their certificates are now affected by the auto-blacklist.
- Old/lost cost confirmations are now correctly restored when received from the first mix.
- KDE4 update works again
- External browser in portable mode may now be set on all operating systems and to all local file paths.
- use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost for default socket listener in order to prevent IPv6 connections to JonDo
- block internal auto-update if Java Web Start is recognized

- When a portable browser is given, internal URLs are now opened in this browser. The system default browser is ignored and is used in case of an error only.
- Removed the "block infoservice interface" error handling behaviour in InfoServiceEntry.doHTTPRequest() -- because the current implementation would be to restrictive, i.e. not all exceptions catched really indicate that the related IS does not work at all. An example for this is, that the IS seems to deliver garbage for ZLIB encoded requests from time to time but will work perfectly for PLAIN requests (ok this could also be seen as a bug in the IS -- but this is another story...) Probably the interface should be only blocked if a connection attempt failed...
