41 of 112 configuration commands appear in a test. Record the rest as a
plan, ordered by how much of the product each gap covers against how much
of a fixture it needs, so the next person does not have to redo the survey.
Includes the two limitations left deliberately unasserted, and why pinning
the current behaviour there would be wrong.
tcppm and udppm forward a port each, so test both directions of each: a
request through the TCP mapper reaching its target, a datagram through the
UDP one coming back answered, and a mapper whose rules deny the client
answering nothing.
tlspr takes its destination from the name in the handshake, so point that
name at 127.0.0.1 with nsrecord and give the certificate the same name: the
name then both chooses where the request goes and is what the client checks.
dnspr answers from its cache, including the documented 0.0.0.0 record, which
is handed out as an address rather than withheld.
auto is asked to serve an HTTP proxy request, SOCKS4, SOCKS5 and a TLS
handshake on one port, and to make nothing of a request that is none of
them. Its protocols reach different places, so there are two origins.
The SOCKS UDP association was only checked for the port it binds. Send
datagrams through it as well, large and small, and check a second
association gets its own port - and that one bound inside an intport range
still relays.
A UDP service has no socket to connect to, so readiness is found by asking
until it answers rather than racing it.
A rewrite only reached the copy of the request kept for logging. On a
direct connection the server is sent the request line held in the header
buffer, which was parsed and reduced to its path before the filters ran, so
the rewrite showed up in the log and nowhere else. Through an HTTP parent
the rewritten copy is what goes out, which is why it appeared to work
there.
Splice the new path back into that buffer. The destination was chosen, and
the access rules applied to it, before the rewrite happened, so a rewrite
that changes the method or the authority is left alone: acting on it would
send the request somewhere the rules never saw. Say so in the manual.
The copy needed to notice a rewrite is only taken when a request filter
exists, so a proxy without one does no extra work.
The filter walked its list of access rules but tested the first entry each
time round, so anything pcre_extend appended was never consulted and the
command did nothing at all. Test the entry the loop is on.
pcre_extend takes an ACE and no FILTER_ACTION - the rule keeps the action it
was given - so correct the manual, which documented an argument the command
does not read.
The tests cover matching and denial, rule order, client headers, matching
options, the access rule a pcre rule carries, pcre_extend, and rewriting a
reply header and reply data. Request rewriting is covered through an HTTP
parent, which is the path where it reaches the wire.
OpenSSL 3 adds a subject and authority key identifier when it signs;
LibreSSL, which is the openssl on a stock macOS, does not. Python has
verified strictly since 3.13 and rejects a chain whose certificate has no
Authority Key Identifier, so the macOS runners refused a certificate the
Linux ones accepted. Ask for both by name, and make the self-check strict
so the next such gap is caught before a handshake.
httpsrv parsed Content-Length and never read what followed. The reply is
followed by a close, and closing a socket that still holds unread data
resets the connection instead of ending it, so a POST could cost the client
the reply it was about to read. Windows does that reliably; the same test
passes on Linux and macOS, which is why it looked flaky. Drain the body,
bounded at a megabyte.
The test CA was built with -addext, which LibreSSL - the openssl on a stock
macOS - does not apply the same way, leaving a certificate that is not
usable as a CA and a client that cannot build a chain to it. Put the
extensions in a file both accept, and verify the generated chain before any
of it is handed to a proxy, so a failure there is not read as a fault in
the proxy.
The MITM case reached its origin by address, so it depended on the
certificate 3proxy spoofs carrying an IP alternative name. It does when the
upstream certificate is copied, which is what happens on Linux and macOS
but not on Windows, where the client then refused the connection. Point a
name at 127.0.0.1 with nsrecord instead, and check the chain rather than
the name: an intercepted certificate names the upstream host, not the one
that was asked for. The log assertions gain from it too, since the name is
better evidence than a port that the request was seen.
nsrecord needs nserver as well as nscache, and has to follow nscache, so
say that in the manual: the record goes into the table nscache allocates,
and the table is only consulted when nserver is set.
The port-range fallback was exercised with a range the same case had
already used, so on a busy machine it could fail to bind for the ordinary
reason rather than the one under test. Use privileged ports, which nothing
can take.
When a case fails, print what its servers wrote: the reason usually goes to
the server's stderr, which was captured and then thrown away.
Three arrangements, with key material generated for the run rather than
kept in the tree: a proxy wrapped in TLS, a proxy that reaches a TLS parent
and verifies it against the CA, and MITM.
The MITM case checks what interception is for: the decrypted request line,
URI and all, reaches the log, where the same request through a plain
CONNECT tunnel leaves only the host and port.
The origin runs in its own process there so the proxy log holds only what
the proxy saw, and log assertions wait, since a record is written when the
connection finishes rather than when the reply arrives.
Verification of the spoofed certificate is deliberately not strict: 3proxy
issues those without an Authority Key Identifier, which Python rejects
under its 3.13 defaults.
The cmake Windows build links vcpkg's pcre2, whose DLL lives in
c:/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/bin. Running the tests without that on PATH
started a 3proxy that died at load with 0xC0000135 before opening a socket,
which the suite could only report as "never listened".
Report the reason instead of leaving it blank: name the exit code, and say
when a body is empty because the request failed rather than because the
reply carried nothing.
