Re: [tor-relays] Reminder: exit nodes probably shouldn't be using Google's DNS servers

2016-02-25 Thread Steve Snyder
I assume you mean the name resolutions.  Yes, the resolutions are cached. 

The history of queries is tracked implicitly by the resolver. I've set mine to 
no more than 10 queries per second, so the 11th query from the same IP address 
to the same TLD would be rejected.

Re: [tor-relays] Reminder: exit nodes probably shouldn't be using Google's DNS servers

2016-02-25 Thread Tristan
According to the Tor manual, IPV4 DNS queries are cached by default, but
the UseIVP4Cache option says this:

NOTE: This option, along UseIPv6Cache and UseDNSCache, can harm your
anonymity, and probably won’t help performance as much as you might expect.
Use with care!

Not sure if it's on by default, or if I should turn it on.

Re: [tor-relays] Reminder: exit nodes probably shouldn't be using Google's DNS servers

2016-02-25 Thread Steve Snyder
The OpenNIC servers may not be appropriate for use by a high-speed Tor 
exit relay.


I run an OpenNIC DNS server, and my VPS vendor insisted that I 
rate-limit the server to avoid it being used as a DDOS vector.  I'm 
guessing that this is not an uncommon position to take for public DNS 
servers.


The OpenNIC servers you select for use may be perfectly fine for your 
level of use but don't assume it is automatically true.

their DNS servers to my exit relay, and I no longer see any log errors

2016-02-25 Thread Teófilo Couto
Hi there to all!
Some time ago, in some meetings with our "collective" folks, we started to 
implement OpenNIC based local DNS resolvers to be used by every TOR / CJDNS 
host we manage!

http://goo.gl/2Yki6M

Not a good "policy" to use DNS services from "PRISM cousins"...
Props to all the TOR Community!

Same for me Tristan.  It's becoming a problem here.  My last
notices.log.gz was over a meg in length.  About 40,000 pages per
month on a small exit.  Most entries were dns related.

  That link almost makes it seem like we shouldn't use
any public DNS servers. Can you reliably run an exit server on
just a local resolver? I have Unbound, OpenDNS, and Google DNS
on my exit relay, and I still get "all nameservers failed."
  Also, does this apply to Orbot? Because the latest
update changed Orbot's VPN mode from OpenDNS to Google.

Re: [tor-relays] Reminder: exit nodes probably shouldn't be using Google's DNS servers

2016-02-23 Thread Tristan
That link almost makes it seem like we shouldn't use any public DNS
servers. Can you reliably run an exit server on just a local resolver? I
have Unbound, OpenDNS, and Google DNS on my exit relay, and I still get
"all nameservers failed."

Also, does this apply to Orbot? Because the latest update changed Orbot's
VPN mode from OpenDNS to Google.

 That this also protects Tor users from having their DNS queries logged is
 good as well, but that isn't necessarily the driver for the institution. ;)

Do not presume that pointing dns locally prevents passive monitors
anywhere along your network graph of clearnet hops from seeing your
dns queries there. And ultimately, exit IP can be observed and correlated
from the roots down with increasing difficulty. That said, yes, local is still
better, and often more performant, than pointing to a privacy joke like google.

Would anybody like to share a guide about how to set one of those up

As others have suggested, using unbound is probably the best option.

It's the default resolver, replacing bind, in OpenBSD 5.6+ (see unbound(8) [1] 
and unbound.conf(5) [2]).


Otherwise running ${package_manager_install_command} unbound will typically 
get it installed.


To make unbound a private resolver for Tor, configure it to listen only to 
your family's Tor exits.


In [/var/unbound]/etc/unbound.conf:
---8---
server:
num-threads: 2
interface: 127.0.0.1
interface: ::1
interface: aaa.bbb.ccc.ppp
#   outgoing-interface: aaa.bbb.ccc.rrr
access-control: 127.0.0.0/8 allow
access-control: tor.ex.it.one/32 allow
access-control: tor.ex.it.two/32 allow
...
hide-identity: yes
hide-version: yes
---8---

On OpenBSD, I've had unbound run out of file descriptors while doing Tor exit 
traffic lookups.  The result is unbound logs 'too many open files' and 
quits/fails to restart.


The fix I chose was to boost unbound's resource limits while leaving other 
daemons at the defaults.  Here's how.


The unbound user _unbound is by default in the login class daemon (see 
login.conf(5) [3]).  I moved the _unbound user into login class unbound 
(i.e., used vipw, changed _unbound user's class entry from daemon to unbound). 
 I then defined the unbound class' openfiles limits somewhat higher than the 
default for daemon class.


The openfiles-cur for daemon class is 512, while the openfiles-max for daemon 
class is left at default of 1024.  I chose 5120 and 8192 for the unbound class 
out of an excess of caution, and not because I have yet tested limits between 
512 / 1024 and those higher numbers.  The failure mode suggested that unbound 
was hitting 512 and not attempting to raise the limit.


In /etc/login.conf:
---8---
# Override resource limits for certain daemons that will be started by the
# system but which we load heavily
# change _unbound user from 'daemon' class to 'unbound' class in
# master.passwd to pick up this setting
unbound:\
:openfiles-cur=5120:\
:openfiles-max=8192:\
:tc=daemon:
---8---

In the end, Tor exits are much more effective if the DNS resolver works.  The 
problem of unbound quitting after logging 'too many open files' hasn't 
reoccurred for about 2 weeks running under the new limits.  I'll give it 
another week and declare victory.

Various public ipv6 dns servers, and yes that one is Google's.

Resolver traffic is split across all the forwarders and I'm caching

Re: [tor-relays] Reminder: exit nodes probably shouldn't be using Google's DNS servers

2015-01-08 Thread eric gisse
That was my bug report, thanks for the quick turnaround on that one :3

My problem was that my infrastructure, including that tor exit node,
is puppetized. But a problem with that resulted in dhcp  blitzing
/etc/resolv.conf and I kept putting in google dns out of sheer muscle
memory and I simply forgot to put it back.

It is pretty easy. This is the relevant configuration snippet from my
puppet manifest:

  # setup internal DNS cache / resolver

  include bind
  bind::server::conf { '/etc/bind/named.conf':
directory   = '/etc/bind',
listen_on_addr  = [ 'any' ],
listen_on_v6_addr   = [ 'any' ],
forwarders  = [ '2001:4860:4860::8844',
'2001:1608:10:25::1c04:b12f', '2600::1' ],
allow_query = [ 'any' ],
statistics_file = '/etc/bind/named.stats',
recursion   = 'yes',
extra_options   = {
'forward'   = 'only',
'auth-nxdomain' = 'no',
}
  }


+ some other symlinks to account for the fact this isn't a RHEL box
like the module implicitly assumes.

I even have DNSSEC query validation setup, as the forwarders seem to support it.

Now I have named caching again. For those who are unclear, it helps a
LOT. From rndc stats:

++ Cache Statistics ++
[View: default]
53446329 cache hits
 5246190 cache misses
15049168 cache hits (from query)
 3044495 cache misses (from query)


The exit node in question sits between 10 and 20mb/s continuously, and
goes through a crazy amount of traffic. Something like 50T last month.

I even threw on a squid proxy on regular http and that's caching
something like 5-10% of all requests and overall http bandwidth.

Where it gets interesting is now that I've moved all of my DNS traffic
into a native ipv6 stack (outside of v4 local queries), I can say that
all the udp traffic I get is not legitimate/requested.

Which is looking to be a lot of traffic.

I got dinged with a nice udp DDoS the other day, and now its' even
more clear about what traffic is bad on tcpdump.

 Hi, all!

 While looking into a bug report, I noticed that an exit node was using
 one of Google's well-known public DNS servers for its own DNS server.

 No disrespect to the operators of Google's fine public DNS service,
 but my sense is that using it for a Tor exit node might not be the
 greatest idea for users' privacy, having one DNS provider that gets to
 see so many requests.  It's probably a better idea to have your own
 local cacheing DNS server.

 Would anybody like to share a guide about how to set one of those up
 safely and migrate correctly?

[tor-relays] Reminder: exit nodes probably shouldn't be using Google's DNS servers

2015-01-08 Thread Nick Mathewson
Hi, all!

While looking into a bug report, I noticed that an exit node was using
one of Google's well-known public DNS servers for its own DNS server.

No disrespect to the operators of Google's fine public DNS service,
but my sense is that using it for a Tor exit node might not be the
greatest idea for users' privacy, having one DNS provider that gets to
see so many requests.  It's probably a better idea to have your own
local cacheing DNS server.

Would anybody like to share a guide about how to set one of those up
safely and migrate correctly?

best wishes,

I know people have already started to make specific suggestions and I
don't intend to comment on those. But I wanted to say that in general
there is another consideration: AS and other network level
vulnerabilities.  Obviously recursive resolution may send queries
wherever, but using a local resolver should limit the network
adversaries seeing exit DNS traffic. The flip side is that, against
such an adversary, using a DNS server that supports encryption of
queries and responses is probably more important than it being local.
(At least until Tor starts choosing exits to minimize exposure to network
adversaries on the destination link ;)

I like to chain unbound up to dnscrypt-proxy in order to encrypt DNS  
traffic for this very reason.


dnscrypt-proxy frequently is unable to keep up however, so I currently  
have unbound configured to make queries directly if dnscrypt-proxy is not  
responding.

I was actually just looking into this, and it strangely seems that
OpenBSD doesn't have one. You're right, too - as far as I know, if
you're using DHCP (which is indeed an 'if' in the context of servers),
the dynamic nameserver settings will override resolv.conf.tail's.

That said, you can find dhclient.conf one-liners to set a permanent
primary DNS server on IRC or your search engine of choice. I haven't
tested any (and I don't need any, having a static IP), so I won't
copy-and-paste any here.

I also can't find any mention of resolv.conf.head in the OpenBSD source
code, or any reason online for why it doesn't exist, so I may write a patch.

For what it's worth, most *nix OSs have files that are prepended and/or
appended to /etc/resolv.conf, which are the intended way of doing this.
They often come with corresponding man pages, too. OpenBSD has
/etc/resolv.conf.tail, and Ubuntu has base, head, and tail in the
/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d directory.

I actually just switched to unbound, which is included in the OpenBSD
base system as of the most recent release.

Aside from starting it, all you have to do is add the following to your
/etc/rc.conf.local so that it starts up on boot:

unbound_flags=

And add 'nameserver 127.0.0.1' as the first line of your
/etc/resolv.conf.tail (and, for the time being, /etc/resolv.conf - see
the man pages for details). I still have an OpenDNS server and a Google
server listed below it in case something goes wrong with the local one.

Here's Michael Lucas's guide, which includes information on how to test
your DNS server, how to restrict access (although that seems to be
default now), and how to set up DNSSEC in a minute or two:

http://blather.michaelwlucas.com/archives/580

Ignore his installation instructions. They were written before it was
included in the base system.
