well typically, I had some question in my head about how socks5 proxies work exactly, I read some on RFC 1928 and seems like something not really clear…

first of all, aren’t socks5 limited to websites alone? Maybe…In term of establishing the connection between you and that website? exploit some vulnerabilities inside it? They can indeed be used to establish connections between devices—whether it’s a laptop, desktop, or any other device?
what I need to know and make things clear is:

1 – if you can implement that between a device and another, like a simple tcp connection. I mean as chatrooms work and so on

2- any specific ideas of how to implement that? using asynchronous programming?

3 – Which crates I shall use on?

4 – the idea is about making a windows tool tunneling socks5 over named pipes, as a persistence technique, I heard abt the Veiled crate which uses XChaCha20-Poly1305 for encryption…Ed25519 for authentication and Argon2 for password hashing3…is it a good idea to add such crate on the project?

5- which is the client and server? and how the hole project work? i asked someone abt if we’ve the ability to implement this, like a scenario for Device-to-Device Communication/Connection and he said:

"
you send data to the server, the server sends the data to device, the devices send the data to target...

same other way around

their device will be a client as well basically...

on your pc, you can just use socks5/4 as client

and parse it on the server

it will be like

Chrome -> Server -> Victim device

Your server parses the socks5 protocol, and sends stuffs to victim
"

what did he mean by all this? is this correct?..

I know it’s kind of newbie question, but hopefully someone will make stuffs clearer and easier, I hope so…

thank you all, and really appreciate for any help ^^
