Gerevs: A Rust Crate for Secure SOCKS5 Proxies (RFC 1928)

Welcome to Gerevs!

Gerevs is a work-in-progress Rust crate designed to simplify the creation of secure, general-purpose SOCKS5 proxies. Whether you’re building a networked application or enhancing security, Gerevs aims to provide the tools you need with minimal hassle.

Features

• Secure Connections: Ensure robust security for your proxy communications.
• General Purpose: Flexible enough to suit a variety of use cases.
• Rust Power: Leverage Rust’s performance and safety features.
• Asynchronous Execution: Built using Tokio for high performance and efficient asynchronous operations.

SOCKS5 Commands

• CONNECT
• BIND
• UDP ASSOCIATE (The proxy still doesn't support fragmentation, but I doubt it will because after scouring the internet I couldn't find client side implementations that actually bothered to implement fragmentation)

SOCKS5 Authentication

• Username password (RFC 1929)
• GSSAPI (RFC 1961)
• User defined (The library allows the user of the library to define authentication methods themselves)

Note: Gerevs is designed for server-side implementation only.

What's in the Name?

The name Gerevs is derived from the Hebrew word "גרב" (gerev), which means "sock".

Getting Started
