SimpleX setup with dispvm

Yes, as mentioned here:

Send Telegram Messages over Tor with Whonix ™

But I think we could circunvent it using bwrap rules,

  • Unix Time-sharing System Namespace: --unshare-uts option when invoking bwrap.
  • Custom Hostname: --setenv

For example

bwrap --unshare-uts --setenv HOSTNAME "custom"

I did little test, this also makes Telegram display: “XEN”.


I think a Linux guru who understands namespaces could help us create a fake system using bwrap.

Xen-specific system files:

/sys/hypervisor/uuid

/proc/xen

/dev/xen

/proc/cpuinfo

Like:

  --bind /tmp/fake-proc/cpuinfo /proc/cpuinfo 

Maybe we could consider other sandbox solutions, like Podman


I found these interesting references:

A little off topic, but worth to mention:

“…to camouflage and modify in real time the flags in TCP/IP packets that discover your system.”
