wgslirpy
A command line tool (and a Rust library) for accepting incoming connections within a Wireguard link and routing them to external network using usual opeating system's socket API.
This allows creating a sort of VPN server without root access, e.g. from Android app or when using unprivileged containers.
Features
- Maintaining Wireguard connection with one peer, using Boringtun library.
- Decoding incoming TCP or UDP connections using smoltcp library
- Forwarding TCP and UDP connections from Wireguard to external world, exchanging traffic between userspace and real sockets.
- For UDP, hole punching / NAT traversal should work (not tested though)
- For TCP, half-closed connections and backpressure should work
- Crude DNS server for resolving IPv4 and IPv6 addresses using host's name resolution mechanism.
- Reverse mode for specific TCP and UDP ports - forwarding connections from host to Wireguard.
Limitations
- No ICMP (except of pings to specific address for testing). This affects UDP's "port unreachable"s.

Installation
Download a pre-built executable from Github releases or install from source code with cargo install --path . or cargo install wgslirpy.
CLI options
wgslirpy --help output
Usage: wgslirpy [-k <private-key>] [-f <private-key-file>] -K <peer-key> [-p <peer-endpoint>] [-a <keepalive-interval>] -b <bind-ip-port> [-D <dns>] [-P <pingable>] [--mtu <mtu>] [--tcp-buffer-size <tcp-buffer-size>] [--transmit-queue-capacity <transmit-queue-capacity>] [-u <incoming-udp...>] [-t <incoming-tcp...>]
Expose internet access without root using Wireguard
Options:
-k, --private-key main private key of this Wireguard node, base64-encoded
-f, --private-key-file
main private key of this Wireguard node (content of a
specified file), base64-encoded
-K, --peer-key peer's public key
-p, --peer-endpoint
address of the peer's UDP socket, where to send keepalives
-a, --keepalive-interval
keepalive interval, in seconds
-b, --bind-ip-port
where to bind our own UDP socket for Wireguard connection
-D, --dns use this UDP socket address as a simple A/AAAA-only DNS
server within Wireguard network
-P, --pingable reply to ICMP pings on this single address within Wireguard
network
--mtu maximum transfer unit to use for TCP. Default is 1420.
--tcp-buffer-size in-application socket TCP buffer size. Note that operating
system socket buffer also applies.
--transmit-queue-capacity
nubmer of outgoing (to wireguard) packets to hold in a queue
-u, --incoming-udp
forward this host UDP port into Wireguard network. You need
to specify triplet of socket addresses: host, source
(optional) and dest. Host address is address to bind
operating system socket to. source and dest addreses are
used within Wireguard network. Example: -u
0.0.0.0:1234,10.0.2.1:1234,10.0.2.15:1234
-t, --incoming-tcp
forward this host TCP port into Wireguard network. You need
to specify triplet of socket addresses: host, source
(optional) and dest. Host address is address to bind
operating system socket to. source and dest addreses are
used within Wireguard network. If source port is 0,
roundrobin is used. Example: -t 0.0.0.0:1234,,10.0.2.15:1234
--help display usage information
Wireguardless (GUE/FOU) mode
You can opt out Wireguard layer using special keywords INSECURE and GUE as local and peer keys respectively.
This way wgslirpy would just send IPv4/IPv6 packets directly as UDP datagrams.
Example session
gateway$ wgslirpy -k INSECURE -K GUE -b 127.0.0.1:6556 --dns 10.0.2.1:53 -P 10.0.2.1
peer# ip fou add port 6555 gue local 127.0.0.1 peer 127.0.0.1 peer_port 6556 dev lo
peer# ip link add guegue type sit remote 127.0.0.1 local 127.0.0.1 encap gue encap-sport 6555 encap-dport 6556 encap-csum
peer# ip link set guegue netns testing-wgslirp
peer# ip netns exec testing-wgslirp ip link set guegue up
peer# ip netns exec testing-wgslirp ip addr add 10.0.2.15/24 dev guegue
peer# ip netns exec testing-wgslirp ip route add default dev guegue
peer# ip netns exec testing-wgslirp ping 10.0.2.1
64 bytes from 10.0.2.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=2.53 ms
...
You can also use simpler mode with ipip and fou instead of sit and gue, but that wouldn't support IPv6.
