Log Message:
Update tor-dev to 2.6.7

Changes in version 0.2.6.7 - 2015-04-06
  Tor 0.2.6.7 fixes two security issues that could be used by an
  attacker to crash hidden services, or crash clients visiting hidden
  services. Hidden services should upgrade as soon as possible; clients
  should upgrade whenever packages become available.

  This release also contains two simple improvements to make hidden
  services a bit less vulnerable to denial-of-service attacks.

  o Major bugfixes (security, hidden service):
    - Fix an issue that would allow a malicious client to trigger an
      assertion failure and halt a hidden service. Fixes bug 15600;
      bugfix on 0.2.1.6-alpha. Reported by "disgleirio".
    - Fix a bug that could cause a client to crash with an assertion
      failure when parsing a malformed hidden service descriptor. Fixes
      bug 15601; bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha. Found by "DonnchaC".

  o Minor features (DoS-resistance, hidden service):
    - Introduction points no longer allow multiple INTRODUCE1 cells to
      arrive on the same circuit. This should make it more expensive for
      attackers to overwhelm hidden services with introductions.
      Resolves ticket 15515.
    - Decrease the amount of reattempts that a hidden service performs
      when its rendezvous circuits fail. This reduces the computational
      cost for running a hidden service under heavy load. Resolves
      ticket 11447.
