[BUG] Request bridges button error #751

Open ghost opened 1 year ago

ghost commented 1 year ago

Hello! I hasten to inform you that requesting bridges from the official Tor website does not work. Screenshot of the error (screenshot 1) and the button I tried to request bridges (screenshot 2) attached.

Maybe it's because the bridges request page moved here https://bridges.torproject.org/options/.

I hope for a speedy fix.

Tor allowed in our country. Bridges are needed to bypass the corporate firewall

Device model: Samsung OS version: Android 7

Thank you. This is a known issue with old certificates on Android 7. Android 8+ does not have this issue.

Can you try using "Snowflake AMP" bridge option?

Thank you very much for your response. Snowflake works. In that case, I suggest to remove this button for Android 7 users it will be useful for people not to think that the app is broken :)

The old certificates may be a problem for stock android 7, but most custom roms (ie; lineageos on cm-14.1 branch) running android 7 have updated to current certificates.

LineageOS/android@1784c3e

Can I install required certificates by myself?

If you have root access, then yes. Just replace the cert files in /system. It does not require rebuilding the ROM.

Where can I download required certificates and is there any way to fix this problem on phones without root?

And can you fix it on your side?

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/ca-certificates/+/refs/tags/android-security-8.1.0_r91 The certs get copied to system/etc/security/cacerts/ from the ca-certificates/files/ directory. You don't need to install root. Enable root access for adb or just reboot into recovery mode and use adb while in recovery mode.
