A new Live page shows current download and upload per peer, updated
every 2 seconds, with the last 2 minutes as a chart and a small chart
per peer. The server reads the WireGuard counters every 2 seconds and
keeps 2 minutes in memory; GET /api/v1/live serves them, with since=
for only the newer steps. The dev simulator now adds traffic in
proportion to the time between samples.
Traffic and latency charts label the x-axis with clock times every
3 hours (6 on phones, the date at midnight), or dates for the 7- and
30-day ranges. The hover readout for hourly bars shows the clock
time range instead of "3 h ago".
Settings -> Upkeep -> Backup & restore lists the config.json.bak-* files
that update leaves behind and removes one or all of them; they hold the
same secrets as a backup. Removing needs a signed-in user and is logged.
After a successful update only the newest 3 copies are kept, and a copy
that would overwrite an older one (version unknown, or the same version
twice) gets the time appended. The backup card now also names preshared
keys and authenticator app secrets.
The update notice uses the existing compareVersions instead of its own.
Settings is grouped into Access (users, sign-in, iOS app and API tokens),
Web interface (address and HTTPS), Logs & history and Upkeep
(updates, backup). Session length moved to Sign-in and no longer asks for
a restart. Log level, log size and traffic history share one card; the
country lookup is its own switch. Each card says how it saves.
The log viewer moved to a new Log page in the sidebar, with a filter for
changes only, and the Dashboard's Log link opens it.
Once a day the server asks Gitea or GitHub, as picked under Settings ->
Updates, for the latest release. A newer one shows as a pill in the
sidebar, a banner on the Dashboard and in the Updates card with its
release notes and the commands to update this server. Drafts and
pre-releases are ignored, nothing about the server is sent, and the check
can be switched off. POST /updates/check checks now.
The public addresses stack on the left and the other checks are rows in
one list on the right, each with its raw setting right after the status.
Below 1000px the addresses move above the list.
The public IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, with their uplink, lead the card.
Every other check is a tile with a plain-word status, the raw setting
and, when it fails, what is wrong. The header counts passing or failing
checks.
A full-access token could create a user or reset a password, sign in as
that user and so reach backups and two-step sign-in settings. Users,
passwords, API tokens and the sign-in rules in PATCH /settings now need
a signed-in user again. /auth/me no longer returns tokenId, and
/settings no longer returns adminUsername.
Bitwarden moves elements around in <body>. A moved dialog stayed open but
fell out of the top layer to the bottom of the page, so a confirmation
seemed to vanish and its checkbox stayed ticked unsaved.
Every argon2 run takes 64 MiB and nothing limited how many ran at once,
so parallel sign-in attempts could run the server out of memory (8 at
once used about 600 MB). At most two now run at once; at most 16
sign-ins wait for one, more get HTTP 429. 30 parallel sign-ins peaked
at 275 MB.
A sign-in attempt now counts toward the lockout before its password is
checked, so parallel attempts cannot get past it; a right password
takes its own attempt back. IPv6 addresses are locked out by /64.
With net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1, Linux ignores router announcements
unless accept_ra is 2, so a server that gets its IPv6 route by SLAAC
(e.g. a Raspberry Pi at home) lost IPv6 once the route expired.
The sysctl file now also sets accept_ra=2 for the default and for every
network card and the IPv6 default-route interface, except where
accept_ra is 0. "update" rewrites the file, which fixes existing
installs. A new health check warns while the uplink still has
accept_ra=1.
Beside the page, the sidebar now stays in place while the page scrolls,
so the account link and Sign out are always visible; it scrolls by
itself in very short windows. On a phone it still stacks above the page.
Also show the version with one 'v': release builds already start with it.
Seven pages captured from a demo instance with sample data from the
simulator: dashboard (under the introduction), peers, peer, server,
settings, my account and sign-in. Images live in screenshots/.
The signed-in user's profile, password and own app tokens move from the
Settings card to their own page at #/account, ready for more user
functions. The sidebar footer links to it with the user's name. Users
can now set their own note; the page header shows when and from where
the session started, which the server now records. Settings keeps the
Users table, where your own row links to My account.
The single admin account becomes a list of users; config.json moves to
version 2 and the old admin is migrated on first start. Every user is an
admin. Sessions are tied to a user and their password, so deleting a user
or resetting a password signs them out at once. API tokens belong to the
user who made them and go away with that user.
Admins add users with a temporary password and choose whether it must be
changed at first sign-in; until then the API refuses everything but the
password change. Settings gets My account and Users cards, and the token
table shows each token's owner. 'GHOSTWIRE passwd [username]' resets any
user's password. A failed update now also restores config.json, since the
new version may have upgraded it.
Replace the Kamon ghost with the horned Hannya mask in favicon.svg,
apple-touch-icon.png, the web UI and the setup page. The wordmark and
katakana use Shippori Mincho B1 ExtraBold, bundled as a subset (ASCII
and katakana, 21 KB) under the SIL OFL and served from the binary.
The server pings a peer's tunnel address every 30 s and shows the median
of the last 5 minutes in the peer list (with a 1-hour sparkline) and a
24-hour chart on the peer page. Off by default; "active" pings only
while the device sends traffic, "always" keeps the tunnel up.
The uplink check only reported the IPv4 default route. Split it into
IPv4 and IPv6 uplink rows, and add a public address row for each, read
from the uplink interface (private addresses are shown as behind NAT).
In a terminal, install now asks for the domain, Let's Encrypt email,
endpoint, WireGuard port and admin password, shows a summary and changes
nothing until confirmed. Re-runs offer the current settings and say how
many devices need a new config when the endpoint or port changes.
Flags still work and skip their question; -y or no terminal skips all
questions. New -port flag sets the WireGuard UDP port. Every value is
checked before the system is touched.
Add peer and Issue new config offer the same choice as the web UI: show
the config now or send a one-time setup link (1 h, 24 h or 7 d, PIN on by
default). The link sheet shares the link through the iOS share sheet and
shows the PIN, expiry and a QR code of the link. The peer page gets a
setup link card with share, copy and revoke.
A config can now be handed over as a one-time link, valid for 1 h, 24 h or
7 days and protected by a PIN by default. Keys are made only when the link
is opened; the link works once and is revoked after 5 wrong PINs. Issuing a
new config offers the same choice, and the current config keeps working
until the link is used.
Remove the option to paste a client's public key, in the web UI, the API
and the iOS app.
