Eve cannot reroute data to fake HS without knowledge of onion identity private key. Active (Mallory) attacker can drop or modulate circuits stream without decryption. Worse attack scenario: obtain a copy of identity private keys >50% DA -- Directory Authority nodes (undercover operations, installing bugs, TEMPEST, etc) and full emulate connection with fake consensus to virtual Tor network through DPI on ISP-level and decrypt all the traffic on the fly. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
