Overview

Package bastion runs a reverse proxy service that allows un-addressable applications (for example those running behind a firewall or a NAT, or where the operator doesn't wish to take the DoS risk of being reachable from the Internet) to accept HTTP requests.

Backends are identified by an Ed25519 public key, they authenticate with a self-signed TLS 1.3 certificate, and are reachable at a sub-path prefixed by the key hash.

Types

type Bastion

type Bastion struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Bastion keeps track of backend connections, and serves HTTP requests by routing them to the matching backend.

func New

func New(c *Config) (*Bastion, error)

New returns a new Bastion.

The Config must not be modified after the call to New.

func (*Bastion) ConfigureServer

func (b *Bastion) ConfigureServer(srv *http.Server) error

ConfigureServer sets up srv to handle backend connections to the bastion. It wraps TLSConfig.GetConfigForClient to intercept backend connections, and sets TLSNextProto for the bastion ALPN protocol. The original tls.Config is still used for non-bastion backend connections.

Note that since TLSNextProto won't be nil after a call to ConfigureServer, the caller might want to call http2.ConfigureServer as well.

func (*Bastion) ServeHTTP

func (b *Bastion) ServeHTTP(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request)

ServeHTTP serves requests rooted at "/<hex key hash>/" by routing them to the backend that authenticated with that key. Other requests are served a 404 Not Found status.

type Config

type Config struct {
	// GetCertificate returns the certificate for bastion backend connections.
	GetCertificate func(*tls.ClientHelloInfo) (*tls.Certificate, error)

	// AllowedBackend returns whether the backend is allowed to
	// serve requests. It's passed the hash of its Ed25519 public key.
	//
	// AllowedBackend may be called concurrently.
	AllowedBackend func(keyHash [sha256.Size]byte) bool

	// Log is used to log backend connections and errors in forwarding requests.
	// If nil, [log.Default] is used.
	Log *log.Logger
}

Config provides parameters for a new Bastion.
