Enhanced SOCKSv5 proxy implementation and related tools in Python3

Features:

• Implements SOCKS5 CONNECT and BIND commands.

• Adds SSL encryption with server and client certificate validation.

• Includes a fairly untested/extensible access module.

Commands:

• proxy - SOCKS5 protocol proxy

• connect - netcat but may use SOCKS5 proxy with optional SSL

• listen - netcat -l but may use SOCKS5 proxy with optional SSL

Issues

• bind status message doesn’t report the client’s IP address.

• Deal with SSL nonblocking sockets

  • https://docs.python.org/3/library/ssl.html#notes-on-non-blocking-sockets

TODO

• test Access module

• test audit log

• inetd-server : setenv for peercert, peersock

• use threads for port persist port forwarders?

• for inetd mode, use fork and os.execvp?

• testing: https://reviews.freebsd.org/source/src/browse/main/tests/atf_python/
