GenX25519 command - Create new X25519 keypair
Help for command "GenX25519"
Purpose:
Create new X25519 keypair
Description:
Use this to create a new X25519 keypair, which can be used for WireGuard.
Both the private and public key will be shown.
The public key can be shared and is used to identify a peer.
Also, it can always be retrieved from the private key using the GetPublicX25519 command.
The private key should be kept in a secure place and never be shared.
It cannot be recovered once lost.
Usage:
GenX25519

GetPublicX25519 command - Retrieve public X25519 key from a private one
Help for command "GetPublicX25519"
Purpose:
Retrieve public X25519 key from a private one
Description:
Use this if you have a private X25519 key and want to get its corresponding public key.
Usage:
GetPublicX25519 [private]
Parameters:
private - The private X25519 key you want to get the corresponding public key of.
Turns out %S refers to ANSI/UTF-8 and %s to UTF-16.
This commit fixes a buffer overflow reported by AddressSanitizer and removes an unnecessary conversion to UTF-16.
The open-source project began with version 1.00, build 9022.
With the exception of an informative message fallback for builds older than 9428 (2014), all checks were for closed-source builds.
Also, the default timeout value is set to 30000 (milliseconds) instead of 10000.
The change is made because it was reported that some routers failed to connect in time.

Please note that the implementation is not 100% conformant to the protocol whitepaper (https://www.wireguard.com/papers/wireguard.pdf).
More specifically: all peers are expected to send a handshake initiation once the current keypair is about to expire or is expired.
I decided not to do that because our implementation is meant to act as a server only. A true WireGuard peer acts, instead, as both a client and a server.
Once the keypair is expired, we immediately delete the session.
The cookie mechanism can be implemented in future.
As for authentication: unfortunately using the already existing methods is not possible due to the protocol not providing a way to send strings to a peer.
That's because WireGuard doesn't have a concept of "users": it identifies a peer through the public key, which is determined using the source address.
As a solution, this commit adds a special authentication method: once we receive the handshake initiation message and decrypt the peer's public key, we check whether it's in the allowed key list.
If it is, we retrieve the associated Virtual Hub and user; if the hub exists and the user is in it, the authentication is successful.
The allowed key list is stored in the configuration file like this:
declare WireGuardKeyList
{
declare 96oA7iMvjn7oXiG3ghBDPaSUytT75uXceLV+Fx3XMlM=
{
string Hub DEFAULT
string User user
}
}
WireGuard does not provide any configuration messages, meaning that we cannot push the IP address we receive from the DHCP server to the client.
In order to overcome the limitation we don't perform any DHCP operations and instead just extract the source IP address from the first IPv4 packet we receive in the tunnel.
The gateway address and the subnet mask can be set using the new "SetStaticNetwork" command. The values can be retrieved using "OptionsGet".
In future we will add a "allowed source IP addresses" function, similar to what the original WireGuard implementation provides.

SetStaticNetwork command - Set Virtual Hub static IPv4 network parameters
Help for command "SetStaticNetwork"
Purpose:
Set Virtual Hub static IPv4 network parameters
Description:
Set the static IPv4 network parameters for the Virtual Hub. They are used when DHCP is not available (e.g. WireGuard sessions).
You can get the current settings by using the OptionsGet command.
Usage:
SetStaticNetwork [/GATEWAY:gateway] [/SUBNET:subnet]
Parameters:
/GATEWAY - Specify the IP address of the gateway that will be used for internet communication.
/SUBNET - Specify the subnet mask, required to determine the size of the local VPN network.
The "session created" and "session deleted" messages were useful when a single OPENVPN_SERVER object handled multiple UDP sessions.
Now that each session has its own OPENVPN_SERVER object and session creations/deletions are logged by PROTO, the messages are redundant.
In future we will change the OpenVPN implementation so that the multi-session handling code is deleted.
The messages were like this:
OpenVPN Module: The OpenVPN Server Module is starting.
OpenVPN Session 1 (192.168.122.211:47390 -> 0.0.0.0:1194): A new session is created. Protocol: UDP
OpenVPN Session 1 (192.168.122.211:47390 -> 0.0.0.0:1194): Deleting the session.
OpenVPN Module: The OpenVPN Server Module is stopped.

Help for command "ProtoOptionsSet"
Purpose:
Sets an option's value for the specified protocol
Description:
This command can be used to change an option's value for a specific protocol.
You can retrieve the options using the ProtoOptionsGet command.
To execute this command, you must have VPN Server administrator privileges.
Usage:

Previously, the file needed to be present in order for the setup to work.
This commit removes the requirement so that the setup can be ran from the build directory without the need to copy the file (which is now removed from the repository).
SoftEther VPN originally created the NIC in the UP state and never changed it, even when the the client was not connected.
The behavior was changed in 59e1483dbf, which also added the NicDownOnDisconnect option
The option was disabled by default for backwards compatibility with scripts that don't check whether the NIC is down, but it's not ideal.
This commit forces the correct behavior and removes the commands "TUNDownOnDisconnectEnable", "TUNDownOnDisconnectDisable" and "TUNDownOnDisconnectGet".
PortsUDPSet: This command can be used to specify a single or multiple UDP ports the server should listen on. "0" can be specified to disable the UDP listener.
Administrator privileges are required to execute the command.
PortsUDPGet: This command can be used to retrieve the UDP ports the server is listening on.
The two commands replace the functionality that was previously provided by OpenVpnEnable and OpenVpnGet, respectively.
Now that Proto supports UDP, the server can handle multiple protocols on each UDP port.
The UDP ports are specified by the "OpenVPN_UdpPortList" configuration setting, because:
- OpenVPN is currently the only UDP protocol supported by SoftEther VPN to allow a custom port number.
- Before Proto was introduced, a unified interface for the protocols didn't exist; each protocol implementation had to create its own listener.
In preparation for the upcoming WireGuard implementation, this commit renames "OpenVPN_UdpPortList" to "PortsUDP", which should clarify that the setting is global.
The change is reflected in the code. Also, the ports are now stored in a LIST rather than a string. The conversion between string and LIST only happens when loading/saving the configuration.
The default UDP ports are now the same as the TCP ones (443, 992, 1194, 5555).
This allows an OpenVPN client to bypass a firewall which is aware of the protocol and is able to block it.
The XOR mask set on the server has to be the same on the client, otherwise it will not be able to connect with certain obfuscation modes.
A special OpenVPN client built with the "XOR patch" is required in order to use this function, because it has never been merged in the official OpenVPN repository.
Two parameters are added to the server configuration: "OpenVPNObfuscationMethod" and "OpenVPNObfuscationMask".
Their value can be retrieved with "OpenVpnObfuscationGet" and set with "OpenVpnObfuscationEnable" in the VPN Command Line Management Utility.
With server certificate validation enabled, vpnclient unconditionally
stopped connection on untrusted server certificate. Added account
configuration parameter to retry connection if server certivicate failed
validation.
On startup client creates TUN interface in UP state and kept it UP even
if connection to the server was lost. Creating interface in DOWN state,
turning it UP on successful (re-)connection to server and DOWN on either
disconnect or connection loss would enable DHCP client (say dhclient5)
to detect necessity for lease renewal.
Added a client configuration parameter to create TUN interface in DOWN
state and commands to enable, disable, and query the configuration
parameter.
Enabling the parameter causes client to put all unused TUN interfaces
DOWN, create new TUN interfaces in DOWN state, and turn TUN interfaces
corresponding to active sessions DOWN on connection loss or
disconnecting from server.
Disabling the parameter forces client to turn all TUN interfaces UP and
create new TUN interfaces in UP state.
Default value is 'Disable'.
