TPROXY interferes DNAT port forwarding rules

in flag
GreenVine

I'm setting up TPROXY on my VyOS router to forward certain traffic to a local transparent proxy. It works pretty well, until I discovered that all of my DNAT port forwarding rules are no longer working (connection timeout when connecting from external network).

Environment

  • Router: 10.0.0.1/24 (Proxy is running on 1234 port and adding SO_MARK with 0xff)
  • Internal Host: 10.0.0.2/24 (Port 80 should be exposed to the public)

TPROXY Rules

ip rule add fwmark 1 table 100
ip route add local 0.0.0.0/0 dev lo table 100

nft add table myproxy
nft add chain myproxy prerouting { type filter hook prerouting priority 0 \; }
nft add rule myproxy prerouting ip daddr { 127.0.0.1/32, 224.0.0.0/4, 255.255.255.255/32 } return
nft add rule myproxy prerouting meta l4proto tcp ip daddr 10.0.0.0/24 return
nft add rule myproxy prerouting mark 0xff return
nft add rule myproxy prerouting meta l4proto { tcp, udp } mark set 1 tproxy to 127.0.0.1:1234 accept

nft add chain myproxy output { type route hook output priority 0 \; }
nft add rule myproxy output ip daddr { 127.0.0.1/32, 224.0.0.0/4, 255.255.255.255/32 } return
nft add rule myproxy output meta l4proto tcp ip daddr 10.0.0.0/24 return
nft add rule myproxy output mark 0xff return
nft add rule myproxy output meta l4proto { tcp, udp } mark set 1 accept

nft add table filter
nft add chain filter divert { type filter hook prerouting priority -150 \; }
nft add rule filter divert meta l4proto tcp socket transparent 1 meta mark set 1 accept

DNAT Rules

$ nft list table nat

table ip nat {
    chain PREROUTING {
        type nat hook prerouting priority dstnat; policy accept;
        iifname "pppoe0" tcp dport { 8080 } counter packets 7 bytes 400 dnat to 10.0.0.2:80
    }
}

Symptoms

Connecting RouterPublicIP:8080 is timing out. Ideally it should forward traffic to 10.0.0.2:80.

I guess inbound DNAT traffic is erroneously forwarded to the proxy (instead of the actual host 10.0.0.2), however I couldn't figure out the correct nft rules.

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried adding additionally `meta l4proto tcp ip saddr 10.0.0.0/24 return` to `myproxy prerouting` (before the `tproxy` rule, of course).

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
