NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tor package and not the tor package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.21 relevant fixed versions and status.

The hidden-service feature in Tor before 0.3.0.8 allows a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) in the connection_edge_process_relay_cell function via a BEGIN_DIR cell on a rendezvous circuit.
