   A group of security researchers just developed a new family of attacks   
   dubbed OnionFlation, that turn tors denial of service defense mechanism   
   against its own users. This enables attackers to essentially bring down   
   any onion service of their choosing. This class of attacks actually takes   
   advantage of an asymmetry in onion routing, which reveals a persistent   
   issue facing the tor network. As a result, these types of attacks are   
   difficult to properly patch or defend against. I use my own Onion Service   
   to demonstrate the principals of this attack in real time.
