Releases: evilsocket/opensnitch
v1.6.0-rc.3
NOTE: this version is still WIP, so bear in mind that it may have bugs. If you install it, please, report any problems and help us to improve it, your feedback is invaluable !
What's new
- Added option to send alerts/messages to the server/GUI (477e6aa).
Note: You may see some alerts that were already happening, mainly related to eBPF and custom/hardened kernels. - Allow to filter connections by network interface (#726, 4a0f7a3)
- eBPF modules compilation automated for x86_64 architecture (at the bottom of the page)
For version 1.6.x and kernel >= 5.19
For version 1.6.x and kernel < 5.19
What's changed
-
System firewall (nftables) improvements and new features:
- Allow to create complex rules from the GUI, hopefully in an easy manner (c28643d)
- Allow to apply quotas on connections (not apps) (97b141e)
- Allow to apply rate-limits on connections (not apps) (7fcf864)
- Allow to filter by IP protocols, IP addresses, UID/GID, packet metainformation (f0a9d02,
09ec869, b8d6ead, fc96b24) - Added helpers to allow inbound or outbound connections (i.e.: preconfigured rules to exclude a service/application from being intercepted) (814ed52)
-
Better and more capable processes interception (7cbfca6, c64b2df, 1a493b9) Related: #736
-
Privacy/Security enhanced: Rules files saved with restrictive permissions, allow to configure GUI's unix socket path (736c3f9, 915b325, 820e7d5)
-
eBPF modules are loaded from /usr/lib/opensnitchd/ebpf/ now, to avoid errors upgrading them (474a637)
-
Bug fixes.

v1.6.0-rc.1
What's new
-
Added option to configure system firewall (nftables) from the GUI (d9e0c59):
- Apply global policies (for example: drop input while allowing output traffic).
- Add exclusiones graphically (for example to allow certain services like VPN)
- Open ports when the default policy is DROP.
The GUI doesn't allow yet to configure all the options. However you can edit the configuration file manually if you need to, it's a quite complete frontend to nftables.
Documentation: https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch/wiki/System-rulesPlease, note that this is a WIP feature. If you find any bug, please open a new issue, or drop a comment in this post: #592 thank you!
-
Added option to send events to Syslog (7b610c0):
Also a WIP feature. If you find any bug, please open a new issue, or drop a comment in this post: #638 thank you!
-

v1.5.0-rc.1
[UPDATE 17/12/2021] daemon x86_64 packages (deb/rpm) rebuilt, because somehow it was uploaded with debug traces, consuming up to 1GB of RAM.
What's new
- 0526b84 Intercept in kernel connections (#513): WireGuard, IP tunnels, NFS and SMB connections, etc (#454, #502 , #500)
Note: if WireGuard or other VPNs are still not intercepted, be sure that you have the correct eBPF module (#454 (comment))
- 8d3540f Added Reject action. Besides Deny, now you can reject connections, i.e., the application making the request won't wait the default timeout (~30s) to close the connection, improving the user experience in some situations. (Read more: #481)
You can enable it by editing a rule or by creating a new one. - 3b6c041 New rules types to block or allow:
- list of IPs and network ranges.
- lists of domains with regular expressions (you can use PiHole regexp lists for example).
- 4ea0904 Allow to filter connections by PID (also known as "by this session" / "by this instance")
What's Changed
- 479b8de improved connections parsing.
- github.com/golang/protobuf deprecated by @themighty1 in #505
- need to generate go.sum otherwise we get errors by @themighty1 in #506
- Allow to intercept more kernel connections by @gustavo-iniguez-goya in #513
- Prompt UI height and width fixes by @ryanolton in #540
