wgephemeralpeer

Note for OpenWrt users: For building directly on the device, do a checkout of the revision tagged with v1.0.4.

This repository contains a library that can be used to negotiate ephemeral peers in the realm of Mullvad.

Additionally, there is a small utility called mullvad-upgrade-tunnel, designed to be used in conjunction with wg-quick for establishing post-quantum-secure WireGuard tunnels.

Installation instructions

  1. Download the appropriate release of mullvad-upgrade-tunnel tool from https://github.com/mullvad/wgephemeralpeer/releases. Alternatively, to build from source, see the following section.
  2. Go to https://mullvad.net/en/account/wireguard-config and download a WireGuard configuration file.
  3. Open the configuration file and locate the [Interface] section. Add PostUp = mullvad-upgrade-tunnel -wg-interface %i at the end of the section.

Your configuration file should now look something like this:

[Interface]
# Device: Mellow Merlin
PrivateKey = <redacted>
Address = 10.64.37.199/32,fc00:bbbb:bbbb:bb01::1:25c6/128
DNS = 10.64.0.1
PostUp = mullvad-upgrade-tunnel -wg-interface %i

[Peer]
PublicKey = 5JMPeO7gXIbR5CnUa/NPNK4L5GqUnreF0/Bozai4pl4=
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0,::0/0
Endpoint = 185.213.154.66:51820

You can now use wg-quick to start and stop your tunnel as usual by running wg-quick up <config> and wg-quick down <config> respectively.

When executing wg, you should be able to see a preshared key: (hidden) line underneath the peer section, indicating that a PSK has been successfully configured for your tunnel.

Build from source

To build from source, run make in the repository. Note that the result may depend on the go-version you have installed. If podman is installed you can also use the release targets to build in a container.

macOS

The WireGuard client available in the App Store unfortunately does not support PostUp. If you would like to use mullvad-upgrade-tunnel, you can instead install WireGuard with Homebrew and follow the configuration instructions provided from above.

Windows

PostUp is disabled by default in Windows. To enable PostUp, you need to modify the registry using the following command reg add HKLM\Software\WireGuard /v DangerousScriptExecution /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f.

For more information, you can refer to this link.

In Windows, the %i parameter is referred to as %WIREGUARD_TUNNEL_NAME%. Therefore, the command should be updated as follows:

PostUp = mullvad-upgrade-tunnel -wg-interface %WIREGUARD_TUNNEL_NAME%

SaveConfig

wg-quick offers a SaveConfig option. If set to true, the configuration is saved from the current state of the interface upon shutdown. However, please note that this option cannot be used in conjunction with mullvad-upgrade-tunnel. When negotiating a PSK, you will use an ephemeral peer that is only temporarily valid and accepted on the VPN relay. Thus, using SaveConfig will replace your regular configuration with the ephemeral peer, and subsequent attempts to establish a tunnel will fail.

Key Encapsulation Methods

By setting the -kem <kem> flag, you can use one of the following key encapsulation methods when negotiating the preshared key. The default value is cme-mlkem.

  • cme (Classic McEliece 460896 Round3)
  • mlkem (ML-KEM-1024)
  • cme-mlkem (Classic McEliece 460896 Round3 + ML-KEM-1024)
  • mlkem-cme (ML-KEM-1024 + Classic McEliece 460896 Round3)

Obsolete methods that are still supported:

  • cme-kyber (Classic McEliece 460896 Round3 + Kyber1024)
  • kyber (Kyber1024)
  • kyber-cme (Kyber1024 + Classic McEliece 460896 Round3)
