![iOS 13+](https://img.shields.io/badge/ios-13+-green.svg) ![macOS 10.15+](https://img.shields.io/badge/macos-10.15+-green.svg) [![License GPLv3](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-GPLv3-lightgray.svg)](LICENSE) [![Unit Tests](https://github.com/passepartoutvpn/tunnelkit/actions/workflows/test.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/passepartoutvpn/tunnelkit/actions/workflows/test.yml) [![Release](https://github.com/passepartoutvpn/tunnelkit/actions/workflows/release.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/passepartoutvpn/tunnelkit/actions/workflows/release.yml) # TunnelKit This library provides a generic framework for VPN development on Apple platforms. ## OpenVPN TunnelKit comes with a simplified Swift/Obj-C implementation of the [OpenVPN®][dep-openvpn] protocol, whose crypto layer is built on top of [OpenSSL 1.1.1][dep-openssl]. The client is known to work with OpenVPN® 2.3+ servers. - [x] Handshake and tunneling over UDP or TCP - [x] Ciphers - AES-CBC (128/192/256 bit) - AES-GCM (128/192/256 bit, 2.4) - [x] HMAC digests - SHA-1 - SHA-2 (224/256/384/512 bit) - [x] NCP (Negotiable Crypto Parameters, 2.4) - Server-side - [x] TLS handshake - Server validation (CA, EKU) - Client certificate - [x] TLS wrapping - Authentication (`--tls-auth`) - Encryption (`--tls-crypt`) - [x] Compression framing - Via `--comp-lzo` (deprecated in 2.4) - Via `--compress` - [x] Compression algorithms - LZO (via `--comp-lzo` or `--compress lzo`) - [x] Key renegotiation - [x] Replay protection (hardcoded window) The library therefore supports compression framing, just not newer compression. Remember to match server-side compression and framing, otherwise the client will shut down with an error. E.g. if server has `comp-lzo no`, client must use `compressionFraming = .compLZO`. ### Support for .ovpn configuration TunnelKit can parse .ovpn configuration files. Below are a few details worth mentioning. #### Non-standard - Single-byte XOR masking - Via `--scramble xormask ` - XOR all incoming and outgoing bytes by the ASCII value of the character argument - See [Tunnelblick website][about-tunnelblick-xor] for more details #### Unsupported - UDP fragmentation, i.e. `--fragment` - Compression via `--compress` other than empty or `lzo` - Connecting via proxy - External file references (inline `` only) - Static key encryption (non-TLS) - `` blocks - `vpn_gateway` and `net_gateway` literals in routes #### Ignored - Some MTU overrides - `--link-mtu` and variants - `--mssfix` - Multiple `--remote` with different `host` values (first wins) - Static client-side routes Many other flags are ignored too but it's normally not an issue. ## WireGuard TunnelKit offers a user-friendly API to the modern [WireGuard®][dep-wireguard] protocol. ### Manual Xcode steps If you add any `TunnelKitWireGuard*` Swift package to the "Link with binary libraries" section of your app or tunnel extension, you are bound to hit this error: ``` ld: library not found for -lwg-go ``` because part of the WireGuardKit package is based on `make`, which SwiftPM doesn't support yet. Therefore, make sure to follow the steps below for proper integration: - Copy `Scripts/build_wireguard_go_bridge.sh` somewhere in your project. - In Xcode, click File -> New -> Target. Switch to "Other" tab and choose "External Build System". - Type a name for your target. - Open the "Info" tab and replace `/usr/bin/make` with `$(PROJECT_DIR)/path/to/build_wireguard_go_bridge.sh` in "Build Tool". - Switch to "Build Settings" and find SDKROOT. Type in `macosx` if you target macOS, or type in `iphoneos` if you target iOS. - Locate your tunnel extension target and switch to "Build Phases" tab. - Locate "Dependencies" section and hit "+" to add the target you have just created. - Repeat the process for each platform. ## Installation ### Requirements - iOS 13.0+ / macOS 10.15+ - SwiftPM 5.3 - Git (preinstalled with Xcode Command Line Tools) - golang (for WireGuardKit) It's highly recommended to use the Git package provided by [Homebrew][dep-brew]. ### Caveats Make sure to set "Enable Bitcode" (iOS) to NO, otherwise the library [would not be able to link OpenSSL][about-pr-bitcode] (OpenVPN) and the `wg-go` bridge (WireGuard). Recent versions of Xcode (latest is 13.1) have an issue where the "Frameworks" directory is replicated inside application extensions. This is not a blocker during development, but will prevent your archive from being validated against App Store Connect due to the following error: ERROR ITMS-90206: "Invalid Bundle. The bundle at '*.appex' contains disallowed file 'Frameworks'." You will need to add a "Run Script" phase to your main app target where you manually remove the offending folder, i.e.: rm -rf "${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${PLUGINS_FOLDER_PATH}/YourTunnelTarget.appex/Frameworks" for iOS and: rm -rf "${BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR}/${PLUGINS_FOLDER_PATH}/YourTunnelTarget.appex/Contents/Frameworks" for macOS. ### Demo Download the library codebase locally: $ git clone https://github.com/passepartoutvpn/tunnelkit.git There are demo targets containing a simple app for testing the tunnels. Open `Demo/TunnelKit.xcodeproject` in Xcode and run it on both iOS and macOS. For the VPN to work properly, the demo requires: - _App Groups_ and _Keychain Sharing_ capabilities - App IDs with _Packet Tunnel_ entitlements both in the main app and the tunnel extension targets. In order to test connectivity in your own environment, modify the file `Demo/Demo/Configuration.swift` to match your VPN server parameters. Example: private let ca = CryptoContainer(pem: """ -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIFJDCC... -----END CERTIFICATE----- """) Make sure to also update the following constants in the `*ViewController.swift` files, according to your developer account and your target bundle identifiers: private let appGroup = "..." private let tunnelIdentifier = "..." Remember that the App Group on macOS requires a team ID prefix. ## Documentation The library is split into several modules, in order to decouple the low-level protocol implementation from the platform-specific bridging, namely the [NetworkExtension][ne-home] VPN framework. Full documentation of the public interface is available and can be generated by opening the package in Xcode and running "Build Documentation" (Xcode 13). ### TunnelKit This component includes convenient classes to control the VPN tunnel from your app without the NetworkExtension headaches. Have a look at `VPN` implementations: - `MockVPN` (default, useful to test on simulator) - `NetworkExtensionVPN` (anything based on NetworkExtension) ### TunnelKitOpenVPN Provides the entities to interact with the OpenVPN tunnel. ### TunnelKitOpenVPNAppExtension Contains the `NEPacketTunnelProvider` implementation of a OpenVPN tunnel. ### TunnelKitWireGuard Provides the entities to interact with the WireGuard tunnel. ### TunnelKitWireGuardAppExtension Contains the `NEPacketTunnelProvider` implementation of a WireGuard tunnel. ## License Copyright (c) 2022 Davide De Rosa.
