Re: Bypassed Proxy

Hi Paul and thank you for your reply.

I did try the extension and Squid blocked it right away.

The user has hotspot shield installed on his PC, which I believe is a similar extension to the one you mentioned. 
My squid.conf blocks domains, I have a bypass list of IPs for local company servers and Skype For Business.

The user has hotspot shield installed, both the chrome extension and the desktop software, although the chrome extension is always Off from what I have seen (red icon when off, green when on).

He is getting by squid with some sort of VPN, I thought squid can be configured against such things?

Sam,
I haven’t followed your thread closely so what I am about to mentio may already have been discussed.  Apologies if this is the case.
 
As Alex says, the connections to youtube receive a 503 but then there are successful connects on port 443 to numerous site by IP address rather than hostname.
 
Doing a reverse lookup on the IP addresses shows some are in the northghost.com dns domain name.
 
I looked up northghost.com and they offer an app for mobiles or an add-on for Chrome called Touch VPN.  Perhaps this might be being used by your user although I don’t really know how it works and whether it really is how the user appears to be pypassing the proxy.
 
In your squid.conf or other access control systems, do you allow urls specified by IP as well as hostnames?

Hello, 
 
 
Eliezer’s recommended fix did not work.
 
The user was on YouTube watching UFC all day today.
 
Here’s a copy of the log at the time.

I know 503 is an error, but the user was using youtube without any hassles.
Those IPs are for Digital Ocean and Alentus Corporation.
 
Squid is being “fooled” somehow. 
 I did notice the 503, which made it more confusing to me.
The reason I investigated the issue was because I saw youtube working on the client’s PC with a blue shield-like icon along with some words on top of the youtube page (was not close enough to see the exact logo/words). The video was working fine, but that blue shield extension seems to be the reason behind “fooling” squid.
 
Both the chrome extension and the Desktop client are installed on the machine.
 
I tried replicating that, but I couldn’t even connect the client.
 
What should I be looking for in cache.log?
 
 
Thanks again!
 
Sam

What makes you think this user was able to access youtube? AFAICT, Squid
responded with an error (TAG_NONE/503) and did not contact the origin
server (HIER_NONE/-).

I did notice the 503, which made it more confusing to me.

In any case, I applied the ACL’s to the squid.conf as Eliezer recommended, now I’ll wait till the user comes back in tomorrow to see if it worked.



I understand that you want Squid to redirect users instead of responding
with an error. This 503 response could be due to Squid being unable to
bump the user connection for some reason. Successful bumping is required
to redirect users.

You may see more details inside that error response itself. Others on
the list may be able to help you to get to that response in Squid logs
or packet captures.


HTH,

Alex.
