HosProxy - Converting SMTP Server Into HTTP Proxy

If you are Stuck in a LAN without Internet Connection , but with access to an Email System Only , you can use HosProxy to create  Http proxy over the SMTP Proxy which will allow you to browse to the internet ! In a simpler way , we are going to use the email system as http-proxy to navigate the web !

Here’s the full-summary from edge-security.com :

HoSProxy is made up of two parts:
  • HosTunnel: You need an external server (outside LAN) which must be running HoSTunnel (with root privileges to listen on port 25) and which receives and sends emails with encoded and packaged http requests/responses.

  • HoSProxy: An internal proxy connected to the web browser, that sends HTTP request trough emails via the company SMTP server, and polls for responses in the company POP/IMAP server.

The configuration file is hosproxy.cfg.

Once HoSProxy is configured, it listens in 8008 port and you only have to connect your web browser to that port and enjoy the web ;).
