|
|
|
|
This library provides a simplified Swift/Obj-C implementation of the OpenVPN® protocol for the Apple platforms. The crypto layer is built on top of [OpenSSL][dep-openssl] 1.1.0i, which in turn enables support for a certain range of encryption and digest algorithms.

|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
The client is known to work with [OpenVPN®][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 limitations worth mentioning.
|
|
|
|
Unsupported:
|
|
|
|
- UDP fragmentation, i.e. `--fragment`
|
|
- Compression via `--compress` other than empty or `lzo`
|
|
- Proxy
|
|
- External file references (inline `<block>` only)
|
|
- `<connection>` blocks
|
|
|
|
Ignored:
|
|
|
|
- MTU overrides
|
|
- `--*-mtu` and variants
|
|
- `--mssfix`
|
|
- Multiple `--remote` with different `host` values (first wins)
|
|
- Custom `--redirect-gateway`, VPN is always default gateway (no [split tunnelling][issue-55] yet)
|
|
|
|
Many other flags are ignored too but it's normally not an issue.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### Requirements
|
|
|
|
- iOS 11.0+ / macOS 10.11+
|
|
- Xcode 10+ (Swift 4.2)
|
|
- Git (preinstalled with Xcode Command Line Tools)
|
|
- Ruby (preinstalled with macOS)
|
|
- [CocoaPods 1.6.0][dep-cocoapods]
|
|
- [jazzy][dep-jazzy] (optional, for documentation)
|
|
- [Disable Bitcode][issue-51]
|
|
|
|
It's highly recommended to use the Git and Ruby packages provided by [Homebrew][dep-brew].
|
|
|
|
### CocoaPods
|
|
|
|
To use with CocoaPods just add this to your Podfile:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
pod 'TunnelKit'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Testing
|
|
|
|
Download the library codebase locally:
|
|
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/keeshux/tunnelkit.git
|
|
|
|
Assuming you have a [working CocoaPods environment][dep-cocoapods], setting up the library workspace only requires installing the pod dependencies:
|
|
|
|
$ pod install
|
|
|
|
After that, open `TunnelKit.xcworkspace` in Xcode and run the unit tests found in the `TunnelKitTests` target. A simple CMD+U while on `TunnelKit-iOS` should do that as well.
|
|
|
|
#### Demo
|
|
|
|
There is a `Demo` directory containing a simple app for testing the tunnel, called `BasicTunnel`. As usual, prepare for CocoaPods:
|
|
|
|
$ pod install
|
|
|
|
then open `Demo.xcworkspace` and run the `BasicTunnel-iOS` target.
|
|
|
|
For the VPN to work properly, the `BasicTunnel` demo requires:
|
|
|
|
- _App Groups_ and _Keychain Sharing_ capabilities
|
|
- App IDs with _Packet Tunnel_ entitlements
|
|
|
|
both in the main app and the tunnel extension target.
|
|
|
|
In order to test connection to your own server, modify the file `Demo/BasicTunnel-[iOS|macOS]/ViewController.swift` and make sure to set `ca` to the PEM encoded certificate of your VPN server's CA.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
private let ca = CryptoContainer(pem: """
|
|
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
|
|
MIIFJDCC...
|
|
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
|
|
""")
|
|
|
|
## Documentation
|
|
|
|
The library is split into two 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 with [jazzy][dep-jazzy]. After installing the jazzy Ruby gem with:
|
|
|
|
$ gem install jazzy
|
|
|
|
enter the root directory of the repository and run:
|
|
|
|
$ jazzy
|
|
|
|
The generated output is stored into the `docs` directory in HTML format.
|
|
|
|
### Core
|
|
|
|
Here you will find the low-level entities on top of which the connection is established. Code is mixed Swift and Obj-C, most of it is not exposed to consumers. The *Core* module depends on OpenSSL and is mostly platform-agnostic.
|
|
|
|
The entry point is the `SessionProxy` class. The networking layer is fully abstract and delegated externally with the use of opaque `IOInterface` (`LinkInterface` and `TunnelInterface`) and `SessionProxyDelegate` protocols.
|
|
|
|
### AppExtension
|
|
|
|
The goal of this module is packaging up a black box implementation of a [NEPacketTunnelProvider][ne-ptp], which is the essential part of a Packet Tunnel Provider app extension. You will find the main implementation in the `TunnelKitProvider` class.
|
|
|
|
Currently, the extension supports VPN over both [UDP][ne-udp] and [TCP][ne-tcp] sockets. A debug log snapshot is optionally maintained and shared to host apps via the App Group container.
|
|
|
|
### LZO

|
|
Due to the restrictive license (GPLv2), LZO support is provided as an optional subspec.
