v0.1.1
245d216

veil routes any application through any tunnel chain (WireGuard, OpenVPN, SOCKS5, HTTP, Tor) inside its own Linux network namespace, with a per-profile kill switch and isolated state. This is the free edition.

Highlights

  • Zero-capability uplink: the engine runs unprivileged (no cap_net_admin, CapEff=0) via user namespaces + a userspace uplink (pasta). install.sh builds a known-good pasta from source, so it works across Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, and openSUSE.
  • All chain backends (WireGuard / OpenVPN / SOCKS5 / HTTP / Tor) with multi-hop chaining.
  • Per-app netns isolation, per-profile kill switch (fails closed), per-profile DNS + data dir.
  • GUI + CLI; bulk import of Mullvad / Proton / IVPN configs.
  • No telemetry: zero phone-home.
  • Docker: a hardened capless image (CapEff=0) that runs on any host distro. Opt-in variants add the desktop GUI (--build-arg WITH_GUI=1) and a bundled Firefox for isolated browsing. veil-docker forwards your X11 or Wayland display (rootful Docker, or rootless podman via keep-id), and veil-docker --browser <name> runs a host-installed Chrome or Brave through the tor profile with no rebuild. See packaging/docker/.

Install

git clone https://github.com/mstampfli/veil && cd veil
sudo ./install.sh

install.sh builds and installs veil, veil-gui, and veil-bridge from source across Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, and openSUSE. (Prebuilt static binaries: see the v0.1.0 assets, or build from source here.)
