Go-SOCKS5

Implementation of socks5 client and server in Golang.

This project is for learning purposes and not a clean, well-tested or production ready project.

Supported Auth Methods

• No Authentication Required
• Username/Password

Important Notes (From RFCs and other resources)

• Use socks5h to delegate resolving to proxy server. The client will resolve addresses locally when using socks5

• In the username/password method since the request carries the password in cleartext, this subnegotiation is not recommended for environments where "sniffing" is possible and practical.

• RFC 1928 - SOCKS Protocol Version 5
• RFC 1929 - Username/Password Authentication for SOCKS V5

Client Usage

Use DialContext for CONNECT and UDP ASSOCIATE commands. Use Listen for BIND command. (BIND feature is still under development)
