Yes, it does!

[Vadim Smirnov]

Meanwhile, there is no such tool. When I have spare time, I plan to add a simple user interface for Wiresock VPN Client to provide basic information about tunnel status, IP address, etc.

[Vadim Smirnov]

I also noticed that when I starting the service, the TUN network adapter does not appear, as it did normally when the wireguard client was started.

WireSock does not add a virtual network adapter, NAT and encryption are applied to packets on the fly. This is very similar to how the Cloudflare WARP client works.

[SOCKS5]: S2C_AFTER: 4.0.0.0 : 2304 -> 192.168.1.105 : 64262 etc.

This is my fault, I didn’t test the configuration when both SOCKS5 and Wireguard are running on the same IP. Please download update v.1.1.5 and check how it works.

[Vadim Smirnov]

It looks like you have a firewall in between that is blocking SOCKS5.

If this is the case and if you are interested in further research, I think we could find & add another suitable method instead of SOCKS5.

[Vadim Smirnov]

It’s really weird. It looks like you have a firewall in between that is blocking SOCKS5. Web browsers use SOCKS4 by default, and maybe that matters. To clarify, could you please capture the Dante traffic on the server side? For example, for my test machine in Oracle cloud:

ubuntu@instance-20211213-2206:~$ sudo tcpdump -D
1.ens3 [Up, Running]
2.lo [Up, Running, Loopback]
3.any (Pseudo-device that captures on all interfaces) [Up, Running]
4.bluetooth-monitor (Bluetooth Linux Monitor) [none]
5.nflog (Linux netfilter log (NFLOG) interface) [none]
6.nfqueue (Linux netfilter queue (NFQUEUE) interface) [none]
ubuntu@instance-20211213-2206:~$ sudo tcpdump -vv -i ens3 -w file.pcap port 1080
tcpdump: listening on ens3, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 262144 bytes
11 packets captured
11 packets received by filter
0 packets dropped by kernel

The resulted capture in Wireshark:

[Vadim Smirnov]

Well, Dante resets the connection immediately after processing the packet with authentication methods:

This is confusing if your browser connects fine… Could you please double-check if [CLIENT EXT IP]/32 in Dante configuration file matches your external IP? It behaves like you have a wrong IP address there.

You could try to change it to 0.0.0.0/0, restart Dante and check if it helps. For the security reasons, you could consider enabling username/password authentication.

[Vadim Smirnov]

Hmm, a little confusing. However, when you start the application specifying debug level “all” it also creates PCAP files with traffic captures. Could you please share the wiresock_ext.pcap? It should contain something like on the screenshot below:

[Vadim Smirnov]

Good evening, Dziadek!

I think the problem is with Dante server:

[SOCKS5]: associate_to_socks5_proxy: Failed to receive socks5_ident_resp:: 10054

Error code 10054 (WSAECONNRESET) means that connection was reset by the remote peer (Dante). How have you configured the Dante server? According to the log, it does not use username/password authentication, right? How have you limited access to it? By an IP address?

[Vadim Smirnov]

Hi,

Sorry, this is my fault, I had not tested the installer on Windows 7. I’ve just updated the installer, please re-download and try to install.

[Vadim Smirnov]

Thanks for pointing this out, I have fixed it in 1.0.32.

[Vadim Smirnov]

Socksify is just sample demo code to illustrate the approach. It is not supposed to be an end-user application. Also, please note that it does not support UDP, it is TCP only. However, it can be extended to socksify UDP.

[Vadim Smirnov]

I’m sorry, this is my fault. I was so keen about the new SOCKS5 feature that had not tested the latest build without it. The handshake without SOCKS5 was broken in v.1.0.47 and v.1.0.48.

Please download v1.0.49 and give it a try.

[Vadim Smirnov]

From what I can see, your WireGuard server at google.com:2408 does not respond. Handshake Initiate packets are sent out, but a Handshake Response is never received.

BTW, does Google provide WireGuard service?

[Vadim Smirnov]

Thanks for your reply, I dont understand that you said dont specify, i try to delete “AllowedApps” line and restart wiresock service and there is no connection over VPN, i also try leave blank AllowedApps = “blank” , it doesnt work too.

Since I’m usually running WireSock VPN Client for the Chrome browser app, it was straightforward to test. I have commented out AllowedApps and restarted service. Now, Firefox/Edge also show the VPN address on https://www.whatismyip.com/. Here is the resulted configuration file (key and passwords are stripped out):

[Interface]
PrivateKey = PRIVATE_KEY=
Address = 10.66.66.2/32, fd42:42:42::2/128
DNS = 94.140.14.14, 94.140.15.15
MTU = 1420

[Peer]
PublicKey = PUBLIC_KEY=
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0, ::/0
Endpoint = oracle.sshvpn.me:50812
#AllowedApps = chrome
DisallowedIPs = 192.168.1.0/24
Socks5Proxy = oracle3.sshvpn.me:1080
Socks5ProxyUsername = SOCKS5_USER
Socks5ProxyPassword = SOCKS5_PASSWORD

Can you share your config file? Also, if you experience any problems, then try running Wiresock VPN Client as a console application with -log-level all and share the output.

About Socksify sample, can you support it tunnell all apps, not only selected apps ?

This is relatively easy to do, just remove the application name check, and it will tunnel every new TCP connection via the SOCKS5.

 

[Vadim Smirnov]

I don’t think I understand your question. If you want Wiresock VPN Client to tunnel all the applications over WireGuard tunnel, then just don’t specify AllowedApps parameter in the configuration file.

Socksify sample serves a different task, it forwards the selected application via the SOCKS5 proxy server. I will consider making the background service based on the Socksify sample code.
