The core bug: server sent 5 TLS records in server_hello but client only
read the first one (ServerHello), then passed remaining bytes (CCS + fake
records) into RealityStream. RealityStream saw 0x14 (CCS) != 0x17 and
immediately returned an error, killing the connection.
Changes:
- reality.rs: append ChangeCipherSpec after ClientHello (RFC 8446 D.4)
export REALITY_SERVER_HANDSHAKE_RECORDS=5 constant
- xhttp.rs: drain all 5 server handshake records before creating RealityStream
- uot.rs: rebuild server_hello as proper 5-record TLS 1.3 flight:
ServerHello + CCS + fake EE (108B) + fake Cert (812B) + fake Fin (52B)
drain client CCS from raw stream before wrapping in RealityStream
- ostp-server/relay.rs: remove DNS port 53 interception — DNS queries
now pass through to the actual DNS server as regular TCP connections
- ostp-client/native_handler.rs (Windows): add explicit gateway/32 route
via real interface BEFORE setting default route via TUN to prevent loop
- ostp-client/native_handler.rs (Linux): properly detect real gateway and
add default route via TUN with metric 10 after server IP exclusion
- Remove redundant extra DNS host routes from Windows setup script
- Boxed HandshakeState in NoiseSession to reduce enum variant sizes
- Used is_ok() instead of let Ok(_) pattern
- Applied automatic clippy fixes for minor warnings
TUN Interface:
- Fixed adapter name to always be 'ostp_tun' by cleaning up stale
adapters before launch (prevents 'ostp_tun 2', 'ostp_tun 3', etc.)
- Parallelized route setup with tun2socks launch to save ~3 seconds
- Replaced fixed 2-second sleep with adapter readiness polling
- Added -NoProfile to all PowerShell calls for faster execution
Speed:
- Reduced handshake timeout from 10s to 5s
- Reduced tun2socks spawn buffer from 300ms to 0 (removed)
GUI:
- Added i18n support: English and Russian translations
- Language toggle button in header (EN/RU)
- Merged 'IP Ranges' field into 'Bypass IPs / CIDR Ranges'
- Removed separate IP ranges field
- All static text uses data-i18n attributes
- Status messages, labels, toasts all translated
- Replaced alert() calls with toast notifications
CI/CD:
- Added separate GUI build job for Windows x64 and arm64
- Produces ostp-windows-gui-{arch}.zip with: ostp-gui.exe + wintun.dll + tun2socks.exe
- Uses Tauri CLI v2 for build
Applied Kerckhoffs's principle: the protocol's security and obfuscation
now depend SOLELY on the access key. An adversary who reverse-engineers
the binary cannot build a DPI filter without knowing the key.
Changes:
- Replaced hardcoded salt string ('-ostp-psk-salt') with HKDF-SHA256.
The salt is now derived from the key hash itself — no protocol-specific
strings remain in the binary.
- Unified all secret derivation into derive_all_secrets() which produces
PSK, obfuscation key, and handshake padding range from a single HKDF
invocation.
- Handshake padding range is now key-derived: different access keys
produce different size distributions (min: 16-79, max: +48..+175).
A universal size-based filter is impossible without the key.
- HKDF-SHA256 (RFC 5869) implemented inline using existing hmac+sha2
dependencies — no new crate required.
What remains identifiable in the binary:
- 'Noise_NNpsk0_25519_ChaChaPoly_BLAKE2s' — standard Noise pattern
string, shared with many other projects, NOT OSTP-specific.
- Generic HMAC/SHA-256/ChaCha20-Poly1305 code — standard crypto
primitives used by millions of applications.
DPI/TSPU resistance:
- Handshake packets now padded with 32-128 random bytes (prevents size
fingerprinting — previously every handshake was exactly 52 bytes)
- Frame header reserved bytes randomized instead of always 0 (prevents
known-plaintext oracle inside encrypted payload)
- Padding jitter cap increased from 96 to 256 bytes for better traffic
pattern masking
GUI Windows app (tunnel/proxy not starting):
- CRITICAL: Added CREATE_NO_WINDOW flag to all reg.exe calls in sysproxy.rs.
In Tauri GUI context (no console window), Command::new('reg') was silently
failing because there was no attached console. This prevented the Windows
system proxy from being enabled.
- Added ProxyOverride bypass list (localhost;127.*;10.*;192.168.*;<local>)
to prevent proxy loop for local traffic
- Added comprehensive logging for all registry operations
- Set initial connection_state to 1 (connecting) instead of 0 — prevents
UI polling from immediately flipping back to 'disconnected' before the
handshake has a chance to begin
Code quality:
- Fixed log file paths: log_to_core_file() and log_to_file() now write next
to the executable instead of CWD. In GUI context, CWD could be
C:\Windows\System32, causing write failures or misplaced log files.
ostp-gui:
- GUI-01: Config parsing now strips JSONC comments via json_comments
crate, matching CLI behavior. Previously failed on any commented config.
- GUI-02: stop_tunnel now properly aborts the JoinHandle with a 2s
timeout instead of silently dropping it.
ostp-jni (Android SDK):
- JNI-01: Replaced all .unwrap() calls in JNI functions with safe
null_mut fallback. JNI functions must never panic.
- JNI-02: Added missing exclusions, multiplex, debug fields to
Kotlin SDK Config.toNativeJson(). Without these, serde deserialization
on the native side could fail or use wrong defaults.
- JNI-03: Replaced shutdown_background() with shutdown_timeout(3s)
to allow proper task cleanup and port unbinding.
- JNI-04: Updated Kotlin log string matchers to match professionalized
messages (Connection established, TUN tunnel established, etc.)
TUN handlers:
- TUN-01: Windows TUN cleanup guard now resets DNS via netsh. Previously
the custom DNS server remained configured after disconnect, causing
complete DNS resolution failure.
- Unified all remaining [ostp-client] log prefixes to [ostp] across
wintun_handler.rs, linux_handler.rs, and proxy.rs.
