the users will find here the most suitable choice for a local Tor daemon.

+
+ Debian Security Enhancements
+ ============================
+
+ The first new feature on Vidalia is a general-purpose set of code compiler
+ enhancements that at both, compile and run time, intend to provide security
+ protection feature.
+
+ In a nutshell, it helps Vidalia software to be more resistant to memory
+ corruption attacks. This attacks are very easy to find on untrusted third
+ party data coming from the network, data that could have been forged to look
+ like Tor's but associated to malicious remote attacker.
+
+ The second one is an out-of-the-box security profile for AppArmor, a
+ mandatory access control software that confines processes to certain
+ resources.
+
+ The basic idea behind AppArmor is that you lock an application to a certain
+ minimal well-known predefined list of resources, making certain amount of
+ attacks to be unable to succeed.
+
+ Please note that this AppArmor profile is prepared to cover only the
+ 'default's installation' scenario, in which you use a system's wide Tor
+ instance started by regular Tor init scripts (this configuration is
+ described here as "Default Configuration: Simplest and Painless").
+
+ Any other role is not supported, mainly because of the complex amount of
+ scenarios you may find to run Vidalia.
+
+ Sadly enough, current status of AppArmor on Debian Unstable is broken when
+ using stock kernels (Check out status on #661151).
