Making non-local sockets work -================================ - -The idea is that you identify packets with destination address matching a local -socket on your box, set the packet mark to a certain value: - -# iptables -t mangle -N DIVERT -# iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m socket -j DIVERT -# iptables -t mangle -A DIVERT -j MARK --set-mark 1 -# iptables -t mangle -A DIVERT -j ACCEPT - -Alternatively you can do this in nft with the following commands: - -# nft add table filter -# nft add chain filter divert "{ type filter hook prerouting priority -150; }" -# nft add rule filter divert meta l4proto tcp socket transparent 1 meta mark set 1 accept - -And then match on that value using policy routing to have those packets -delivered locally: - -# ip rule add fwmark 1 lookup 100 -# ip route add local 0.0.0.0/0 dev lo table 100 - -Because of certain restrictions in the IPv4 routing output code you'll have to -modify your application to allow it to send datagrams _from_ non-local IP -addresses. All you have to do is enable the (SOL_IP, IP_TRANSPARENT) socket -option before calling bind: - -fd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); -/* - 8< -*/ -int value = 1; -setsockopt(fd, SOL_IP, IP_TRANSPARENT, &value, sizeof(value)); -/* - 8< -*/ -name.sin_family = AF_INET; -name.sin_port = htons(0xCAFE); -name.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(0xDEADBEEF); -bind(fd, &name, sizeof(name)); - -A trivial patch for netcat is available here: -http://people.netfilter.org/hidden/tproxy/netcat-ip_transparent-support.patch - - -2. Redirecting traffic -====================== - -Transparent proxying often involves "intercepting" traffic on a router. This is -usually done with the iptables REDIRECT target; however, there are serious -limitations of that method. One of the major issues is that it actually -modifies the packets to change the destination address -- which might not be -acceptable in certain situations. (Think of proxying UDP for example: you won't -be able to find out the original destination address. Even in case of TCP -getting the original destination address is racy.) - -The 'TPROXY' target provides similar functionality without relying on NAT. Simply -add rules like this to the iptables ruleset above: - -# iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j TPROXY \ - --tproxy-mark 0x1/0x1 --on-port 50080 - -Or the following rule to nft: - -# nft add rule filter divert tcp dport 80 tproxy to :50080 meta mark set 1 accept - -Note that for this to work you'll have to modify the proxy to enable (SOL_IP, -IP_TRANSPARENT) for the listening socket. - -As an example implementation, tcprdr is available here: -https://git.breakpoint.cc/cgit/fw/tcprdr.git/ -This tool is written by Florian Westphal and it was used for testing during the -nf_tables implementation. - -3. Iptables and nf_tables extensions -==================================== - -To use tproxy you'll need to have the following modules compiled for iptables: - - NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_SOCKET - - NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_TPROXY - -Or the floowing modules for nf_tables: - - NFT_SOCKET - - NFT_TPROXY - -4. Application support -====================== - -4.1. Squid ----------- - -Squid 3.HEAD has support built-in. To use it, pass -'--enable-linux-netfilter' to configure and set the 'tproxy' option on -the HTTP listener you redirect traffic to with the TPROXY iptables -target. - -For more information please consult the following page on the Squid -wiki: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/Tproxy4 |
