privacypass-rs

An implementation of Privacy Pass in Rust, compatible with https://github.com/privacypass.

Described in the post https://kobi.one/2019/01/05/exploring-privacypass.html.

The example-data folder contains example configuration files for both the client and the server, a secret key for the server and a public commitment for the key to be used by the client.

Building

The code relies on the Apache Milagro Crypto Library, and is included as a submodule in the repository.

To be able to build and run, as described later, get the submodule:

git submodule update --init --recursive

Docker

To use docker to build and run the privacypass-rs server, execute the following commands:

cd docker
docker build -t privacypass-server .
docker run -ti -p2416:2416 privacypass-server

Running with example data

To execute with the example data, you can execute the following commands:

• For the server:

cd example_data
cargo run --bin privacypass-rs-server

• For the client:

cd example_data
cargo run --bin privacypass-rs-client

The example configuration files are configured for running both the server and client locally.

To make the processes print debug logs, add before each cargo run command the environment variable RUST_LOG=privacypass_rs=debug.

Example public server

I'm running a test server at privacypass.kobi.one. To use it, change example_data/server_settings.yaml to point to the server as follows:

server_address: privacypass.kobi.one:2416
