feat: implement comprehensive TCP jailing with host-side PREROUTING
Replaced port-specific OUTPUT rules with comprehensive TCP interception using host-side PREROUTING rules. This closes all potential bypass routes for applications using non-standard ports. Key Changes: ## Traffic Interception Strategy - **Before**: Namespace OUTPUT rules for ports 80 and 443 only - **After**: Host PREROUTING rules for ALL TCP traffic from namespace ## Security Improvements - ✅ Blocks ALL TCP traffic (not just HTTP/HTTPS) - ✅ Prevents bypass via custom ports (8080, 3306, 22, etc.) - ✅ Ensures complete network isolation - ✅ Provides comprehensive audit trail ## Technical Implementation - Added vethHost field to Linux struct for interface tracking - Changed from namespace 'ip netns exec iptables OUTPUT' rules - To host 'iptables PREROUTING -i veth_interface' rules - All TCP traffic redirected to HTTPS proxy port for handling ## Bypass Prevention Applications can no longer escape jail by using: - HTTP on non-standard ports (8080, 3000, etc.) - Database connections (3306, 5432, 27017) - SSH connections (22) - Custom API ports - Any other TCP-based protocols This provides true network jailing instead of just HTTP/HTTPS proxying. Tested: Build succeeds, all tests pass. Co-authored-by: f0ssel <[email protected]>
