virtual-test-environment

VM lab environment for testing on-path VPN attacks

Requirements

• Virtualbox (5.2 or older)
• Vagrant 2.2.x

Setup base virtual network

1. Start all 6 VMs (3 routers and 3 edge nodes): cd virtual-test-environment; ./boot_all.sh
2. Go do something else cause its gonna take a while..
3. ssh to some machine:

• ssh by port: ssh -l vagrant localhost -p 22111
• ssh with vagrant: cd edgers/vpn-server/; vagrant ssh or cd <path-to-vagrantfile>; vagrant ssh

4. Restart all the machines to make network changes take effect: ./stop_all.sh then ./start_all.sh
5. Make sure edge nodes can ping eachother: ping 192.168.3.2

Build VPN server

1. Copy setup scripts to vpn server VM: cd virtual-test-environment/edgers/vpn-server; ./copy_vpn_setup.sh
2. Ssh to vpn server VM: cd virtual-test-environment/edgers/vpn-server; vagrant ssh
3. Run interactive script to setup vm as a OpenVPN server: ./setup_vpn.sh

• Keep hitting Enter or y to leave all default values

4. Run script to generate client config file: ./make_client_configs.sh

Connect client to VPN server

1. Run script to copy client1 config file from vpn server to client vm: cd virtual-test-environment/edgers/client; ./copy_client_config.sh
2. Ssh to the client VM: cd virtual-test-environment/edgers/client; vagrant ssh
3. Install OpenVPN on the client vm: ./connect.sh
4. Connect to the local vpn server: sudo openvpn --client --config client1.ovpn &

Setup DNS server on "web-server" node

1. Run script to copy dns setup scripts to vm: cd virtual-test-environment/edgers/web-server; ./copy_dns_setup.sh
2. Ssh to server vm: cd virtual-test-environment/edgers/web-server; vagrant ssh
3. Run docker install script: ./install_docker.sh
4. Start the dns bind docker container: ./start_dns.sh (may need to log back in for new docker permissions)
5. Check to make sure its alivee: docker ps or docker logs bind

Setup attack router for dns inject attack

1. Start script to copy attacker setup to vm: cd virtual-test-environment/routers/router1; ./copy_attacker_setup.sh
2. Ssh to router vm: cd virtual-test-environment/routers/router1; vagrant ssh
3. Run the setup script to install spoofing libraries and repo: ./setup_attacker.sh
4. Change to dns attack folder: cd VeepExploit/server-side-attack/dns-sside/full_scan
5. Compile the attack script: make
6. Run the attack: sudo ./uud_send <dns_server_ip> <src_port (53)> <vpn_server_ip> <start_port> <end_port>

Test the DNS Injection

1. Either run the overload script or simply turn off the local DNS server to ensure the real responses do not beat our injected responses: docker stop bind (on web-server VM)
2. Query for our test domain from the VPN client node: nslookup yo.com 192.168.3.2 (yo.com is hardcoded as the domain name response in the injection script)3. Make sure there is a conntrack entry on the VPN server for our clients lookup: sudo conntrack -L | grep 192.168.3.2 | grep udp
3. Start the injection script from the attack node once the client has issued the request: sudo ./uud_send 192.168.3.2 53 192.168.2.2 32000 62000

Teardown

1. Stop all the VMs: ./stop_all.sh
2. Destroii all VMs in our path: ./destroy_all.sh
