[tor-dev] [CRITICAL] Deep Fingerprinting Traffic Correlation

Hi,

I was the one who raised the issue of DeepCorr being able to perform traffic correlation with a high degree of accuracy but it seems like that WTF-PAD which is currently implemented in Tor does defend against the DeepCprr attack. I could be wrong but this seems to be my understanding. The feasability of this attack decreased when W-T (Walkie-Talkie) a half duplex anti-traffic correlation startegy is used. The accuracy with a W-T defense in place is 49% compared to a 90% accuracy with WTF-PAD. Thera There has been a new deep learning attack which is extremely effective against the current implementation of WTF-PAD in Tor. This new attacks is called Deep Fingerprining proposed here : https://arxiv.org/pdf/1801.02265.pdf.

Thanks
