NVD Description

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

Tor before 0.4.9.11 is prone to a use-after-free (and potential double free) of a conflux object when a recovery leg revives a conflux set whose last linked leg has already been closed. A malicious exit node could use this to crash a client. This is TROVE-2026-026.
