Description

In Whonix, ZeroNet runs on the workstation and Tor on the gateway. These are two different VMs connected by internal network. All outgoing connections are forced through Tor.

ZeroNet's localhost connection is redirected Tor's ControlPort to the gateway, where the ephemeral Tor hidden service is created. Tor then is pointing the hidden service's virt port the workstation on 10.152.152.10:15441.

Since ZeroNet is only listening on 127.0.0.1:15441, no incoming Tor hidden service connection will ever reach ZeroNet.

ZeroNet continues to function, it fails to notice broken Tor hidden services connection. Do you consider this a bug?
