## Description
|
|
|
|
Most of the time when you are using a public network, you are behind some kind of firewall or proxy. One of their purpose is to constrain you to only use certain kind of protocols. Nowadays, the most widespread protocol is http and is de facto allowed by third party equipment.
|
|
|
|
This tool understands this fact and uses the websocket protocol which is compatible with http in order to bypass firewalls and proxies. Wstunnel allows you to tunnel what ever traffic you want.
|
|
|
|
My inspiration came from [this project](https://www.npmjs.com/package/wstunnel) but as I don't want to install npm and nodejs to use this tool, I remade it in Haskell and improved it.
|
|
|
|
**What to expect :**
|
|
|
|
* Good error messages and debug informations
|
|
* Static tunneling (TCP and UDP)
|
|
* Dynamic tunneling (socks5 proxy)
|
|
* Support for http proxy (when behind one)
|
|
* Support for tls/https server (with embeded self signed certificate, see comment in the example section)
|
|
* **Standalone binary for linux x86_64** (so just cp it where you want)
|
|
* Standalone archive for windows
|
|
|
|
[Binaries](https://github.com/erebe/wstunnel/tree/master/bin)
|
|
|
|
P.S: Please do not pay attention to Main.hs because as I hate to write command line code this file is crappy
|
|
|
|
## Command line
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Use the websockets protocol to tunnel {TCP,UDP} traffic
|
|
wsTunnelClient <---> wsTunnelServer <---> RemoteHost
|
|
Use secure connection (wss://) to bypass proxies
|
|
|
|
wstunnel [OPTIONS] ws[s]://wstunnelServer[:port]
|
|
Client options:
|
|
-L --localToRemote=[BIND:]PORT:HOST:PORT Listen on local and forwards
|
|
traffic from remote
|
|
-D --dynamicToRemote=[BIND:]PORT Listen on local and dynamically
|
|
(with socks5 proxy) forwards
|
|
traffic from remote
|
|
-u --udp forward UDP traffic instead of
|
|
TCP
|
|
-p --httpProxy=USER:PASS@HOST:PORT If set, will use this proxy to
|
|
connect to the server
|
|
Server options:
|
|
--server Start a server that will forward
|
|
traffic for you
|
|
-r --restrictTo=HOST:PORT Accept traffic to be forwarded
|
|
only to this service
|
|
Common options:
|
|
-v --verbose Print debug information
|
|
-q --quiet Print only errors
|
|
-h --help Display help message
|
|
-V --version Print version information
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
### Simplest one
|
|
On your remote host, start the wstunnel's server by typing this command in your terminal
|
|
```
|
|
wstunnel --server ws://0.0.0.0:8080
|
|
```
|
|
This will create a websocket server listenning on any interface on port 8080.
|
|
On the client side use this command to forwards traffic trought the websocket tunnel
|
|
```
|
|
wstunnel -D 8888 ws://myRemoteHost:8080
|
|
```
|
|
This command will create a sock5 server listenning only on loopback interface on port 8888 and will forwards traffic.
|
|
|
|
Ex: With firefox you can setup a proxy using this tunnel by settings in networking preferences 127.0.0.1:8888 and selecting socks5 proxy
|
|
|
|
### When behind a corporate proxy
|
|
An other useful example is when you want to bypass an http proxy (a corporate proxy for example)
|
|
The most reliable way to do it is to use wstunnel as described below
|
|
|
|
Start your wstunnel server with tls activated
|
|
```
|
|
wstunnel --server wss://0.0.0.0:443 -r 127.0.0.1:22
|
|
```
|
|
The server will listen on any interface on port 443 (https) and restrict traffic to be forwarded only to the ssh daemon.
|
|
|
|
**Be aware that the server will use self signed certificate with weak cryptographic algorithm.
|
|
It was made in order to add the least possible overhead while still being compliant with tls.**
|
|
|
|
**So do not rely on wstunnel to protect your privacy, if you want to do so, forwards only traffic that is already secure by design (ex: https)**
|
|
|
|
Now on the client side start the client with
|
|
```
|
|
wstunnel -L 9999:127.0.0.1:22 -p mycorporateproxy:8080 wss://myRemoteHost:443
|
|
```
|
|
It will start a tcp server on port 9999 that will contact the corporate proxy, negociate a tls connection with the remote host and forward traffic to the ssh daemon on the remote host.
|
|
|
|
You can now access your server from your local machine on ssh by using
|
|
```
|
|
ssh -p 9999 login@127.0.0.1
|
|
```
|
