Can you explain in detail how this is supposed to work? Am I supposed to run this (Docker here) on my local server or on a remote server that the block is not affecting??
hectorm · 3 years ago
You should run it inside the network affected by the blockage.

If you use Docker you can run the following command to start the server and configure your browser to use it as an HTTP proxy.

  docker run -p 8080:8080 docker.io/hectorm/demergi:latest

Can anyone from India confirm if this proxy server [1] is enough to bypass the block?

Basically it is a proxy that alters HTTPS traffic to prevent DPI systems from detecting the domain during the TLS handshake. At least in Spain it works for me to bypass the blocking of the major ISPs [2].

If anyone wants to quickly spin up a Haiku VM I leave here my Docker image [1].

It's just a proof of concept but some people are using it for CI as well [2].

so it runs Ubuntu which fires up a virtual machine that runs windows. Why not run the VM directly without Ubuntu !? (and without Docker)
hectorm · 4 years ago
You can of course set this up manually outside Docker, I provide this image so that you can easily have a preconfigured installation with VNC, RDP, bind shell and a Samba server.

Well they seem to add vnc and netcat shell listeners to the startup scripts so it is kind of backdoored on purpose already outside of what's in the iso
hectorm · 4 years ago
During the installation I add Netcat to have a bind shell, this way you can get a CMD shell from Linux using the "vmshell" command included in the image.

So yes, technically it's backdoored but only for yourself :)

The ISO is downloaded from WinWorld, which is a website dedicated to archiving old software, it's certainly community maintained but at least gets some scrutiny. I also searched the checksum and it matches with other sources, but as there is no longer an official Microsoft source you can never be entirely sure.

I've done my best to confirm the legitimacy but if anyone has an original CD it would be awesome if they could confirm it.

Questions about this implementation's legality? Liability? Security?

https://github.com/hectorm/docker-qemu-win2000/blob/master/D...

Makes me think this is done as a POC, but definitely fork a local copy as you can just swap that line out with your local copy of a Win2k ISO

hectorm · 4 years ago
Effectively this is done as a POC, don't expect any security on a machine running Windows 2000 nowadays.

Regarding legality, I hope that Microsoft doesn't claim any rights, since the Windows 2000 image has been published in WinWorld for years without issues.
