- Added new configuration field to allow configure fw interception
number queue (default to 0):
"FwOptions": {
"QueueNum": 0
}
(we still need to reconfigure nfqueue queues in order for this to
take effect).
- If the fw configuration path is not supplied, default to
/etc/opensnitchd/system-fw.json
Now it's possible to configure eBPF modules path from the
default-config.json file:
"Ebpf": {
"ModulesPath": "..."
}
If the option is not provided, or if it's empty, we'll keep loading from
the default directories:
- /usr/local/lib/opensnitchd/ebpf
- /usr/lib/opensnitchd/ebpf
- /etc/opensnitchd/ebpf (deprecated, will be removed in the future).
Closes#928
- Allow to configure system firewall configuration file path:
* via cli (-fw-config-file).
* via global configuration file.
- Allow to configure fw rules check interval.
The system fw config file contains regular iptables/nftables rules.
Previously it was hardcoded to /etc/opensnitchd/system-fw.json
The interval to check if the interception rules were added was also
hardcoded to 10 seconds. Now it's possible to configure it.
A value of "0s" disables the interval, while "" defaults to 10 seconds.
- Send errors to the server (GUI) if there's any error when reloading
the system fw rules (far from being perfect/optimal, needs a
rewrite).
- Don't load the configuration after saving it, let the watcher reload
it on write change to avoid double reload/duplicated errors.
The DNS rule to intercept DNS responses must always be at the top of
the (input-filter) rules, otherwise we won't receive DNS resolutions.
Adding, removing or changing system fw rules was removing the rule from 1st
position.
Another approach to this problem could be to remove&&add only the dns rule,
instead of disable-enable interception+rules monitor.
* Allow to configure firewall rules from the GUI (WIP)
New features:
- Configure and list system firewall rules from the GUI (nftables).
- Configure chains' policies.
- Add simple rules to allow incoming ports.
- Add simple rules to exclude apps (ports) from being intercepted.
This feature is only available for nftables. iptables is still supported,
you can add rules to the configuration file and they'll be loaded, but
you can't configure them from the GUI.
More information: #592
Before this change, we tried to determine what firewall to use based on
the version of iptables (if -V legacy -> nftables, otherwise iptables).
This caused problems (#455), and as there's no support yet for nftables
system firewall rules, it can't be configured to workaround these
errors.
Now the default firewall to use will be iptables.
If it's not available (installed), can't be used or the configuration
option is empty/missing, we'll use nftables.
Added basic nftables support, which adds the needed rules to intercept
outgoing network traffic and DNS responses. System rules will be added
soon.
What netfilter subsystem to use is determined based on the following:
- nftables: if the _iptables_ binary is not present in the system, or
if the iptables version (iptables -V) is
"iptables vX.Y.Z (nf_tables)".
- iptables: in the rest of the cases.
