Hello, i was wondering if Tor do have any limits on the amount of inbound connection per source IP?
My question is whenever a Tor Relay could be subject to DOS attack by a single powerful server (let's say that with a single IP) but with some powerful GPU to accelerate RSA operations? I'm wondering if a single server with a powerful GPU (ie: Amazon AWS with GPU) could trigger 50.000/RSA&second operations with 50.000 newconnection/seconds to a single Tor Relay? That's to ask if there's some kind of limits in place to prevent a possible DOS attack like this, by evaluating the amount of asymmetric crypto operations per source IP / time and deciding whenever to slow it down. -- Fabio Pietrosanti (naif) HERMES - Center for Transparency and Digital Human Rights http://logioshermes.org - https://globaleaks.org - https://tor2web.org - https://ahmia.fi -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
