Three v2-hardening features in aura-cli, one pass:
- nat::NatGuard: RAII auto-config of IP forwarding + MASQUERADE on server
startup. Linux (sysctl ip_forward + iptables -t nat MASQUERADE) and
macOS (sysctl ip.forwarding + pfctl with /tmp/aura-nat.conf). dry_run
works on every platform (logs "would run: ..."). Reverts everything in
Drop. New [server.nat] {auto, egress_iface, dry_run}; absent section =
back-compat no-op. Removes v1's "manual NAT/forwarding" step.
- privdrop::drop_to_user: drop euid/gid after binding TUN + privileged
ports. Linux setresuid/setresgid, macOS setgid+setuid (permanent drop),
Windows no-op with warning. New [server] / [client] run_as = "..."
(optional). Skipped with info-log if already non-root.
- admin: split transport into cfg(unix) Unix-socket and cfg(windows) Tokio
named-pipe modules sharing one JSON-line serve/request flow over
AsyncRead/AsyncWrite. DEFAULT_SOCKET = "/tmp/aura-admin.sock" on Unix,
r"\\.\pipe\aura-admin" on Windows. Removes v1's "admin Unix-only".
Deps: nix 0.29 user feature under [target.'cfg(unix)'.dependencies] (cli-
local, not workspace). Workspace: 155 tests passed (+13), clippy -D warnings
clean, fmt clean.
