- Upgraded hashing algorithm to SHA-512, and store the raw hash instead of a string copy, which is way cheaper to compute and compare.
- Only ever close sockets once in CRConServer::SetPassword().
- Made the game server & game client RCON singletons static.
- Added calls to gracefully shutdown RCON server and RCON client on Engine/SDK shutdown.
- Added more prints so RCON user knows when its shutdown, or when their password change is in effect, etc.
- Fixed bug where we could tokenize an empty string when we dispatch a console command.
CConnectedNetConsoleData was allocated and deallocated manually, but std::vector is able to do it on its own. The vector type has been swapped out with CUtlVector as this removed the need of having to cast size types to a 32bit int to make it more compatible with the other sdk/engine types without throwing compiler warnings.
If 'sv_rcon_maxconnections' is set higher than current auth socket count, reopen listen socket. If its set lower, close all sockets until auth socket count matches 'sv_rcon_maxconnections'. Sockets are getting closed in reverse order, so the netcon that connected last will be disconnected first.
* Decoding and encoding is done into a single buffer, from raw buffers to avoid extraneous copies.
* Added base class holding all core logic for encoding, decoding, receiving and processing of the RCON protocol. This code was initially identical between all implementations of RCON, deduplicating this avoids bugs.
* Added more sophisticated error handling, stop right away when decoding for example fails.
* Added ability to have more than one active authenticated net console on the server. Controlled by cvar 'sv_rcon_maxconnections' (default 1).
* Max packet size for accepted, but not authenticated sockets is now controled by cvar 'sv_rcon_maxpacketsize' (default 1024).
* Prevent attacker from being able to abuse and overflow the banned list vector.
* Improved IPv6 comparison performance.
* Change size fields of payload frame from unsigned to signed.
* Close all accepted sockets on RCON server shutdown.
RCON upgrade with additional logging system improvements:
* Netconsole's can now log received messages in color, even when the RCON server has ANSI colors disabled; logs are fully composed locally.
* RCON server now also sends the log type over the wire, along with the (already existing) context.
* SDK logging code is now shared with the standalone netconsole application.
* Improved logging readability for the standalone netconsole application.
Check if we are initialized, have at least one socket, and in case of a console log, if we have at least 1 authorized netconsole before serializing the message and sending the result.
If an error occurs during init, and 'Error' is called, the program will segfault. Fixed by only running the 'send' code from RCON after it has been initialized.
* Use game's CNetAdr RCON and socket creator.
* Add support for constructing host from [ip]:port format in the netconsole client.
* Pass 'netadr_t' parameter by reference to 'CSocketCreator::OnSocketAccepted'.
* Used 'htonl'/'ntohl' for constructing the length prefix.
* Used static socket/address members instead of pointers.
* Used const qualifier where possible.
* Changed length prefix field type to 'u_long'.
* Removed extraneous include.
* Properly escaped percentage characters on the RCON game client for the ImGui console.
* Use c++ methods as much as possible.
* Use enum types for accessing NavMesh objects from array.
* Use size_t for for loops when testing against size types.
* Don't compute strlen twice of more on the same string.
* Don't use unnecessary c string casts if there is a method with a std::string overload.
* Don't create string objects from string pointers if we could use them directly.
* Don't initialize RCON password twice on each change, and don't set if the new password equals the old.
* Use responceid from server to determine in which context to log.
* Moved all script loggers from combined enums to minus instead (SERVER = -3, CLIENT = -2, UI = -1 SERVER_CODE = 0, etc), this makes it much easier to align stuff in combined systems such as the RUI logger or NetMsg().
* Color log networked RCON messages properly on the client.
* Added dedicated logger for all received RCON messages (net_console.log).
* Log commands submitted through in-game console (allows for easier debugging when going through log files).
* Implemented robust length-prefix framing logic for non-blocking sockets (previously used character sequences to determine length, but you cannot use character sequences on protocol buffers as its binary data. This logic should fix all problems regarding some commands not getting networked properly to the server and stuff not getting printed on the client).
* Increased buffer size to std::vector::max_size when netconsole is authenticated (MAX_NETCONSOLE_INPUT_LEN still remains enforced on accepted but not authenticated connections to prevent attackers from crashing the server).
* Process max 1024 bytes each recv buffer iteration.
* Additional optimizations and cleanup.
* Changing RCON passwords on the server now closes all connections and re-initializes the system.
* Fully mapped out VFTable interface for IConVar* (used for ConVar callbacks, see callback.cpp).
Moved server/client headers and implementations into dedicated subfolder.
Renamed Some classes to match the game binary (e.g. CBaseClient is now CClient).
Removed redundant files.
