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® protocol, whose crypto layer is built on top of OpenSSL 1.1.1.

The client is known to work with OpenVPN® 2.3+ servers.

  • Handshake and tunneling over UDP or TCP
  • Ciphers
    • AES-CBC (128/192/256 bit)
    • AES-GCM (128/192/256 bit, 2.4)
  • HMAC digests
    • SHA-1
    • SHA-2 (224/256/384/512 bit)
  • NCP (Negotiable Crypto Parameters, 2.4)
    • Server-side
  • TLS handshake
    • Server validation (CA, EKU)
    • Client certificate
  • TLS wrapping
    • Authentication (--tls-auth)
    • Encryption (--tls-crypt)
  • Compression framing
    • Via --comp-lzo (deprecated in 2.4)
    • Via --compress
  • Compression algorithms
    • LZO (via --comp-lzo or --compress lzo)
  • Key renegotiation
  • 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 <character>
    • XOR all incoming and outgoing bytes by the ASCII value of the character argument
    • See Tunnelblick website for more details

Unsupported

  • UDP fragmentation, i.e. --fragment
  • Compression via --compress other than empty or lzo
  • Connecting via proxy
  • External file references (inline <block> only)
  • Static key encryption (non-TLS)
  • <connection> 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® 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 12.0+ / macOS 10.14+
  • SwiftPM 5.3
  • Git (preinstalled with Xcode Command Line Tools)

It's highly recommended to use the Git package provided by Homebrew.

Caveats

Make sure to set "Enable Bitcode" (iOS) to NO, otherwise the library would not be able to link OpenSSL (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 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.
