Summary0008109: problem with Covenant on Kali wsl
Description

Lately I've been running Windows Subsystem for Linux (wsl) Kali (using "kex --esm") and that is working great.

Except for one app that I've tried - covenant-kbx which runs, but whose listeners will only listen on Docker's loopback IP address 172.17.0.2. If I try to listen on an eth0 IP or tun0 IP, that doesn't work.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. sudo service docker start
    Starting Docker: docker.

  2. sudo covenant-kbx start

    Starting covenant
    Please wait during the start, it can take a long time...
    Opening https://127.0.0.1:7443 with a web browser
    covenant/default started
    Press ENTER to exit

  3. Create listener using default settings. (baseline showing expected bahavior)
    Connecting to http://172.17.0.2:80 will show that the web server is listening on port 80

wget http://172.17.0.2:80
--2022-12-19 19:32:08-- http://172.17.0.2/
Connecting to 172.17.0.2:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found
2022-12-19 19:32:08 ERROR 404: Not Found.

  1. Delete listener and create new listener using the IP address of any interface other than docker0

Connecting to http://10.10.14.69:80 will show there is no server listening on port 80

wget http://10.10.14.69:80 ↵ 4
--2022-12-19 19:38:48-- http://10.10.14.69/
Connecting to 10.10.14.69:80... failed: Connection refused.

I updated the package so that covenant-kbx can listen on the host network. Please run "sudo apt update && sudo apt install covenant-kbx" in a terminal, that should get you the latest version of the package (ie. version 0.6-0kali6). Tell me if it fixes the issue. Thanks!

Is there something special I will need to do for port bindings?

Oups! Please open (as root) the file /usr/share/kaboxer/covenant.kaboxer.yaml, and comment out (ie. add a '#' at the beginning of the lines) these 3 lines:

<pre>
publish_ports:

  • 7443
  • 443
    </pre>

Does that work?

Yes!

It appears that worked like a charm. Will need to do some real testing to confirm but this looks promising.

Thank you for the fix.

I have confirmed I am able to install the latest using sudo apt update && sudo apt install covenant-kbx

Covenant starts up with no issues and is able to listen on interface tun0 and eth0.

Gratitude and respect to you and happy New ear.
