We start receiving notifications from the UI, which allow us to change
configurations and perform actions on the daemon.
The concept of Node has also been introduced, which identifies every
daemon (client) connected to the UI (server).
These options has been added:
- Enable/Disable firewall interception (for all nodes)
- Change daemons (clients) configuration. globally or per node.
- Change prompt dialog options.
We have fixed some bugs along the way:
- Close audit client connection gracefully.
- Exclude our own connections from being intercepted.
- Better handling of client connection status with the UI.
We probably has also introduced some other bugs (not listed here).
Added ProcMonitorMethod, which can be "proc", "ftrace" or "audit".
Parameters passed by command line take prevalence over default
configuration.
breaking changes: config options changed from xx_yy to XxYy.
Config example:
{
"DefaultAction": "allow",
"DefaultDuration": "once",
"InterceptUnknown": true,
"ProcMonitorMethod": "audit"
}
If we can't communicate with the server (UI), apply the default
configured action. For example, if the UI is doing too much work and it
reaches the timeout, or if there's a programming error (python exception
for instance).
If the file /etc/opensnitchd/default-config.json exists,
read it and apply the options to the default rule when there's no client
connected.
If it doesn't exist, just apply the default rule, allow connections
once.
Config example: {"default_action": "deny", "default_duration": "once"}
