Proxychains
Proxychains is a SOCKS proxy chain tool and TCP traffic redirector that forces outgoing network connections from applications into a specified sequence of proxy servers. It functions as a proxy sequence orchestrator, routing TCP network traffic through multiple SOCKS or HTTP proxies to anonymize network paths and bypass firewalls.
The tool includes a remote DNS resolver that performs domain name resolution through a remote proxy to prevent DNS leaks and hide queries. This ensures that network traffic from applications that are not proxy-aware is redirected through the configured intermediaries.
The project provides capabilities for anonymous network tunneling, network traffic routing, and secure proxy chaining to mask origin addresses and bypass restrictive network filters.
Features
- Proxy Chaining - Routes TCP network traffic through a nested sequence of multiple SOCKS or HTTP proxy nodes.
- Network Traffic Routing - Routes application data through a sequence of proxies to bypass restrictive firewalls and filters.
- SOCKS Proxies - Provides SOCKS proxying capabilities to route network packets between clients and servers through a chain.
- TCP Proxies - Intercepts and forwards raw TCP traffic streams into a specified chain of proxy servers.
- Traffic Redirection Tools - Forces outgoing TCP connections into SOCKS or HTTP proxies at the packet level.
- Symbol Interposition - Intercepts standard C library network calls by preloading a custom shared library to redirect traffic.
- System Call Interposition - Redirects TCP connection requests by overriding the connect system call.
- Anonymization Proxies - Creates a chain of proxy servers to mask the user's origin and enhance TCP connection privacy.
- Proxy-Tunnelled Resolution - Performs domain name lookups through an established proxy connection to prevent local information leakage.
- DNS Leak Protection - Prevents DNS leaks by performing domain name resolution through a remote proxy.
- Protocol-Transparent Forwarding - Forwards raw byte streams between applications and proxy chains without modifying the original payload.
- Proxy Orchestrators - Orchestrates the specific ordering patterns of multiple proxies to secure network paths.
- Network Security and Proxies - Forces application TCP connections through various proxy types.
- Network Tunneling and Proxying - Tool for forcing network connections through proxies.
