From 46dbcd4833115401fecbb052365b4c7725874414 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gregory Maxwell Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2016 22:44:14 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Do not absolutely protect local peers from eviction. With automatic tor HS support in place we should probably not be providing absolute protection for local peers, since HS inbound could be used to attack pretty easily. Instead, this counts on the latency metric inside AttemptToEvictConnection to privilege actually local peers. --- src/net.cpp | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/net.cpp b/src/net.cpp index 8abfc4b430..b022255bdf 100644 --- a/src/net.cpp +++ b/src/net.cpp @@ -884,8 +884,6 @@ static bool AttemptToEvictConnection(bool fPreferNewConnection) { continue; if (node->fDisconnect) continue; - if (node->addr.IsLocal()) - continue; vEvictionCandidates.push_back(CNodeRef(node)); } }
