[Security] In Root Mode, Block Internet Connection For Tor Configured Apps If Tor Is Not Connected!

Open ThatAnnoyingVegan opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Conditions: 0. Running As Root.

  1. InviZible Firewall is connected.
  2. X app is allowed to be connected with Mobile, WiFi, and VPN.
  3. "Route All Traffic Through TOR" is either on/off, in either case, X app is allowed for Tor connection. (This switch doesn't stop apps from connecting to the internet, if Tor is not connected.)
  4. Now, if I open X app when Tor even VPN isn't connected but Mobile/WIFI is ON, it shows my real IP and ISP on sites like Browserleaks.
  5. I would like Tor configured apps to not connect to the Internet if Tor is not running, and when Tor is running with Prority for Tor if VPN is running alongside. Thank You.

This can only be an option for advanced users. By default, all traffic is routed through Tor if it is running. If I implement your suggestion, all users using only DNSCrypt or I2P will have their internet connection blocked.

I thought about it. Here is what I think, Disabling "Route all traffic through Tor", Now selecting an application from the list would only connect them to the Internet (using mobile or WiFi data) if Tor is connected or VPN if selected through system's or InviZible's firewall, this way users wouldn't have to worry about IP leak. Let me know what do you think.

@ThatAnnoyingVegan Such behavior is not obvious and will therefore cause questions and misconfigurations.
