History

CyberMind-FR 5fa5924533 fix(mitmproxy): Add per-instance haproxy_router_enabled override Allow disabling HAProxy router mode per-instance via UCI option `mitmproxy.<instance>.haproxy_router_enabled`. This prevents port conflicts when running multiple mitmproxy instances (e.g., mitmproxy-out on 8888 and mitmproxy-in on 8889) where only the inbound instance needs HAProxy router mode.

SecuBox mitmproxy App

LXC container with mitmproxy for HTTPS traffic inspection and threat detection.

Multi-Instance Support

SecuBox supports multiple mitmproxy instances for different traffic flows:

Instance	Purpose	Proxy Port	Web Port	Mode
out	LAN → Internet (outbound proxy)	8888	8089	transparent
in	WAN → Services (WAF/reverse)	8889	8090	upstream

Instance Commands

# List all instances
mitmproxyctl list-instances

# Status of specific instance
mitmproxyctl status out
mitmproxyctl status in

# Shell into instance
mitmproxyctl shell in

# Start/stop instances (via init.d)
/etc/init.d/mitmproxy start
/etc/init.d/mitmproxy stop

UCI Configuration

Instances are configured in /etc/config/mitmproxy:

config instance 'out'
    option enabled '1'
    option description 'LAN->Internet Proxy'
    option container_name 'mitmproxy-out'
    option proxy_port '8888'
    option web_port '8089'
    option mode 'transparent'

config instance 'in'
    option enabled '1'
    option description 'WAF/Reverse Proxy'
    option container_name 'mitmproxy-in'
    option proxy_port '8889'
    option web_port '8090'
    option mode 'upstream'
    option haproxy_backend '1'

Sync Routes Command

Syncs HAProxy vhost configurations to mitmproxy routing table:

mitmproxyctl sync-routes

This generates /srv/mitmproxy/haproxy-routes.json:

{
  "devel.cybermind.fr": ["192.168.255.1", 3000],
  "play.cybermind.fr": ["192.168.255.1", 8501],
  "glances.maegia.tv": ["192.168.255.1", 61208],
  "factory.maegia.tv": ["192.168.255.1", 7331]
}

HAProxy Integration Commands

Command	Description
`mitmproxyctl haproxy-enable`	Enable threat inspection for all vhosts
`mitmproxyctl haproxy-disable`	Disable inspection, restore direct backends
`mitmproxyctl sync-routes`	Regenerate routes from current HAProxy config

Enabling HAProxy Inspection

# Enable inspection mode
mitmproxyctl haproxy-enable

# This will:
# 1. Create mitmproxy_inspector backend (127.0.0.1:8889)
# 2. Store original backends in UCI (haproxy.$vhost.original_backend)
# 3. Redirect all vhosts through mitmproxy
# 4. Sync route mappings
# 5. Restart services

Ports

Port	Instance	Service
8888	out	Proxy port (LAN outbound)
8889	in	Proxy port (HAProxy/WAF)
8089	out	mitmweb UI (outbound)
8090	in	mitmweb UI (WAF)

haproxy_router.py Addon

The router addon:

Loads routes from /data/haproxy-routes.json
Routes requests by Host header to real backends
Stores original host in flow.metadata['original_host']
Falls back to LuCI (127.0.0.1:8081) for unknown hosts

Route File Format

{
  "hostname": ["ip", port],
  "*.wildcard.domain": ["ip", port]
}

Supports wildcard matching with *.domain.tld patterns.

Dependencies

lxc - Container runtime
crowdsec - Threat intelligence (optional)
geoip2 - Python GeoIP library (optional)
