CVE-2010-0383  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-200  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade tor to version 0.2.1.22, 0.2.2.7 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. Tor before 0.2.1.22, and 0.2.2.x before 0.2.2.7-alpha, uses deprecated identity keys for certain directory authorities, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to compromise the anonymity of traffic sources and destinations.
