wiresocks

Wiresocks client that exposes itself as a socks5 proxy

What is this

wiresocks is a completely userspace application that connects to a wireguard peer, and exposes a socks5 proxy on the machine. This can be useful if you need to connect to certain sites via a wireguard peer, but do not want to setup a new network interface for whatever reasons.

Why you might want this

  • You simply want wireguard as a way to proxy some traffic
  • You don't want root permission just to change wireguard settings

Currently I am running wiresocks connected to a wireguard server in another country, and configured my browser to use wiresocks for certain sites. It is pretty useful since wiresocks is completely isolated from my network interfaces, also I don't need root to configure anything.

Usage

./wiresocks [-v] [-l addr:port] <config file path>

Sample config file

Wiresocks supports subset of the wg-quick file format.
