<h1>Use syncthing to share large file over tor </h1>
|
|
<p>Onionshare is a good choice when you want to share small files over tor. But onionshare cannot handle big files, when tor circuit fails(which is quite common) your download simply fails, and it does not support resuming the download at where it fails. Syncthing is a better alternative for sharing big files over tor, it does not need any setup or hosting, and it will automatically retry at break point when network fails.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Syncthing is FOSS software and has E2EE by default, and can run without a clearnet ip address. This means you can just spin up a client, and your data will be encrypted and sent through syncthing network. If you have a threat model that needs a way to reliably share files with minimum exposure, this setup will be suitable.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Syncthing has its own relays for supporting transmission of files between peers which are both behind the nat, and it works when both parties are behind tor. This guarantees the anonymity of both parties.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>OPSEC Recommendations:
|
|
|
|
<br>1.Hardware : (Personal Computer / Laptop)
|
|
<br>2.Host OS: Linux (Or Qubes OS)
|
|
<br>3.Hypervisor: libvirtd QEMU/KVM (Or Qubes OS's Xen)
|
|
<br>4.Guest OS: Whonix setup
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
It is highly recommended to use whonix for this setup, because there are always cases that an app might not honor your proxy setting and somehow connects directly. It is always a good idea to put sensitive app behind whonix gateway, so your clearnet ip will never be exposed

<h2><b>Initial Setup </b></h2>
|
|
<p>The first thing to do is to get syncthing to your whonix workstation.</p>
|
|
<p>For simplicity you can just do</p>
|
|
<pre><code class="nim">sudo apt-get install syncthing
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
<p>Sometimes apt might not contains the up to date package, then you need to get it from the site</p>
|
|
<img src="1.png" class="imgRz">
|
|
|
|
<p>Next verify the sha256sum according to <a href="https://syncthing.net/security/">https://syncthing.net/security/</a></p>
|
|
<pre><code class="nim">curl -s https://syncthing.net/release-key.txt | gpg --import
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Check the gpg fingerprint, it should be like this</p>
|
|
<pre><code class="nim">
|
|
gpg --fingerprint
|
|

<p>Then download verify the checksum file, and check the checksum to see if it matches</p>

|
<p>Next you need to do some changes in the tor browser, so you can access the web panel</p>
|
|
<p>type about:config inside the address bar, accept the risk and continue</p>
|
|
<img src="2.png" class="imgRz">
|
|
<p>search for no_proxies_on in the search bar, and add 127.0.0.1 to it</p>
|
|
<img src="3.png" class="imgRz">
|
|
<p>Editing your tor browser is fine if you are just using it to access local syncthing instance, but you should revert the change if you want to access the internet. Changing tor config might bring some unexpected browser fingerprint issue. You should get a separate whonix vm if paranoid.</p>

<h2><b>Sync files</b></h2> </br> </br>
|
|
<p>After the previous setup, you can share the file you want</p>
|
|
<p>Syncthing over tor is really slow! Because if both parties are behind tor, your file will probably goes through a circuit like this: </p>
|
|
<img src="Syncthing_circuit.jpg" class="imgRz">
|
|
<p>I personally tried this setup, and it took me 4 hours 30 minutes to send a 10GB file. So be patient when you are sending some large files</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You and your peer will only see the relay server's ip address, unlike the vpn setup which will expose the vpn ip you are using, which you can check here <a href="https://blog.nowhere.moe/opsec/syncthingvpn/index.html">https://blog.nowhere.moe/opsec/syncthingvpn/index.html</a></p>
|

<p>You peer also won't know you are using tor if you do not tell him</p>
|

<img src="remote_node.png" class="imgRz">
|

|
<p>Choose add folder to create a new sharing Folder, and choose to share this folder with your peer</p>
