A wireguard client that exposes itself as a socks5/http proxy or tunnels.
wireproxy
is a completely userspace application that connects to a wireguard peer,
and exposes a socks5/http proxy or tunnels on the machine. This can be useful if you need
to connect to certain sites via a wireguard peer, but can't be bothered to setup a new network
interface for whatever reasons.
- You simply want to use wireguard as a way to proxy some traffic.
- You don't want root permission just to change wireguard settings.
Currently, I'm running wireproxy connected to a wireguard server in another country, and configured my browser to use wireproxy for certain sites. It's pretty useful since wireproxy is completely isolated from my network interfaces, and I don't need root to configure anything.
Users who want something similar but for Amnezia VPN can use this fork of wireproxy by @juev.
- TCP static routing for client and server
- SOCKS5/HTTP proxy (currently only CONNECT is supported)
- UDP Support in SOCKS5

# TCPClientTunnel is a tunnel listening on your machine,

# This is especially useful to use wireproxy as a ProxyCommand parameter in openssh
# For example:

# Socks5 authentication parameters, specifying username and password enables

Alternatively, if you already have a wireguard config, you can import it in the wireproxy config file like this:
WGConfig = <path to the wireguard config>
# Same semantics as above
[TCPClientTunnel]
...
[TCPServerTunnel]
...
[Socks5]
...
Having multiple peers is also supported. AllowedIPs
would need to be specified
such that wireproxy would know which peer to forward to.

[Peer]
Endpoint = 192.168.0.204:51820

PersistentKeepalive = 25
[Peer]

AllowedIPs = 10.254.254.1/32, fdee:1337:c000:d00d::1/128

[TCPServerTunnel]
ListenPort = 5001
Target = service-two.servicenet:5001
[TCPServerTunnel]

Wireproxy can also allow peers to connect to it:
[Interface]
ListenPort = 5400

[Peer]
PublicKey = YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY=
AllowedIPs = 10.254.254.100/32
# Note there is no Endpoint defined here.
Wireproxy supports exposing a health endpoint for monitoring purposes.
The argument --info/-i
specifies an address and port (e.g. localhost:9080
), which exposes a HTTP server that provides health status metric of the server.
Currently two endpoints are implemented:
/metrics
: Exposes information of the wireguard daemon, this provides the same information you would get with wg show
. This shows an example of what the response would look like.
/readyz
: This responds with a json which shows the last time a pong is received from an IP specified with CheckAlive
. When CheckAlive
is set, a ping is sent out to addresses in CheckAlive
per CheckAliveInterval
seconds (defaults to 5) via wireguard. If a pong has not been received from one of the addresses within the last CheckAliveInterval
seconds (+2 seconds for some leeway to account for latency), then it would respond with a 503, otherwise a 200.
For example:
[Interface]
PrivateKey = censored
Address = 10.2.0.2/32
DNS = 10.2.0.1
CheckAlive = 1.1.1.1, 3.3.3.3
CheckAliveInterval = 3
[Peer]
PublicKey = censored
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0
Endpoint = 149.34.244.174:51820
[Socks5]
BindAddress = 127.0.0.1:25344
/readyz
would respond with
< HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable
< Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2024 00:54:59 GMT
< Content-Length: 35
< Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
<
{"1.1.1.1":1712796899,"3.3.3.3":0}
And for:
[Interface]
PrivateKey = censored
Address = 10.2.0.2/32
DNS = 10.2.0.1
CheckAlive = 1.1.1.1
/readyz
would respond with
< HTTP/1.1 200 OK
< Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2024 00:56:21 GMT
< Content-Length: 23
< Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
<
{"1.1.1.1":1712796979}
If nothing is set for CheckAlive
, an empty JSON object with 200 will be the response.
The peer which the ICMP ping packet is routed to depends on the AllowedIPs
set for each peers.
