fix(mysterium): flag nodes whose router rewrites UDP ports instead of showing them healthy - #703
A Mysterium node can look healthy while it earns nothing. If the router in front of it rewrites the source port of some outgoing UDP flows, inbound traffic still works. So the node's own port check passes, the log says Method:manual Success:true, and the dashboard shows nothing wrong. But buyers drop the node's answers, which come from a port they did not dial, so every session ends after about a minute with 0 bytes. We hit this on two nodes, which went ten days without a working session.
One pattern behind it: some ISP fibre boxes reserve outgoing UDP ports in pairs. Mapping port P also holds P XOR 1, and a later flow from the partner port leaves with a random port. Pinning --udp.ports to a narrow forwarded range (30 ports) makes that collision nearly certain, because a session's second port is almost always the partner of one already mapped.
The node's own API shows the failure. Mysterium's monitoring status reads failed, and the last sessions are all about a minute long and empty. On a working node, monitoring reads success and sessions carry data. /nat/type answers prcone either way, so this change does not read it.
Fix
docker.health_probe is a new catalog block (app/health_probe.py). The worker runs a read-only command inside the node and sends back only the indexes of the checks that hold, never the node's answer. It is served at GET /api/health-probes. The catalog validates the block at load.
Mysterium's probe makes two GETs on the node's loopback: /node/monitoring-status, and the 5 newest completed provided /sessions of any age (no date window: a broken node stops being offered, and a window would empty out and clear the check while the node is still broken). The two reads are independent, so a slow monitoring status, which asks Mysterium's remote quality oracle, never costs the local sessions read. The run is bounded by timeout 12, which the schema now requires. It has two checks:
monitoring failed;
all five sessions 40 to 89 s long with 0 bytes either way. A working node's odd empty session ends within seconds, and one session that carries data clears the check.
The 30-minute windowed-signal sweep asks each worker once and lists each hit under Needs fixing for that box. ${WORKER_NAME} is a new placeholder, filled with the worker's name. Each hint names the likely cause and links the guide section. Error handling:
A probe that cannot be read keeps its last verdict for up to 24 h. After that the verdict is dropped, and a node the worker keeps reporting as unreadable gets a hint saying so.
A worker from before this endpoint (404) gives no verdict and does not affect the log signals.
Guide (docs/guides/mysterium.md):
Corrects the claim that Method:manual Success:true proves the node works.
Adds Routers that rewrite UDP source ports: the symptom, why a narrow range makes collisions near certain, and a two-port STUN test (scripts/stun_port_pair.py, standard library only, run in a throwaway container that shares the node's network namespace).
Lists the fixes in the order we would try them, each with its cost: SIP ALG and VoIP off, a port-preserving NAT setting, bridge mode with your own router, then a much wider range (capped at 1,000 ports, below 32768).
The STUN script tells a pairing router apart from a NAT that rewrites every port (symmetric NAT, CGNAT, a VPN, Docker Desktop), and the guide says to run it on Linux with Docker Engine.
The Port forwarding section and the UDP_PORTS help say a narrow range fails on pairing routers.
Verified against real nodes
On two affected nodes, the probe command's real output trips both checks. On a working node it trips neither.
The STUN script reports 34100 -> 46948 REWRITTEN (the even port of each pair) on the affected lines, exits 1, and finds every port kept on the working line (exit 0).
Desktop
Desktop's runtime loader ignores unknown keys, but its CI does not: TestEveryVendoredKeyIsReadByTheLoader strict-decodes every vendored catalog file, so a sync carrying health_probe would fail it. GeiserX/CashPilot-Desktop#281 adds a passthrough field, as for node_firewall. Merge it before the next catalog sync. Desktop would need its own probe runner to show this finding, which is a separate follow-up.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added configurable service health probes that check command output and surface findings and troubleshooting hints in worker health status.
Added Mysterium checks for monitoring status and recent zero-traffic sessions.
Added a diagnostic tool to check whether routers preserve UDP port mappings.
Health probe findings can display the worker’s name and network address.
Documentation
Expanded the Mysterium guide with port-forwarding guidance, UDP port-rewriting symptoms, diagnostic steps, and possible fixes.
Clarified port-forwarding resource costs, startup and removal times, and what successful reachability checks do—and do not—confirm.
… showing them healthy
A router that rewrites the source port of some outgoing UDP flows (a fibre
box that reserves ports in pairs, a SIP ALG) leaves a Mysterium node online,
passing its own port check and logging "Method:manual Success:true", while
every session ends after about a minute having carried nothing.
The worker now asks the node itself, read-only, for Mysterium's monitoring
status and its last five sessions (docker.health_probe), and the 30-minute
sweep lists the node under Needs fixing when monitoring reads "failed" or
those sessions are all a minute long and empty. The guide explains the
failure, ships a two-port STUN test, and lists the fixes in order of risk.
The change adds catalog validation and worker execution for container health probes, connects probe results to producer-state hints, configures Mysterium checks, and adds a STUN port-pair diagnostic with operating guidance.
Changes: Mysterium Health Probe and UDP Diagnostics
Documents and validates probe declarations. Adds output matching and bounded reads from running containers. Includes probe commands in the socket policy and allows the read engine to use a supplied Docker client.
Worker endpoint and producer sweep app/worker_api.py, app/main.py, tests/test_mysterium_health_probe.py
Adds the authenticated probe endpoint and connects probe results to producer-state hints. Probe and log verdicts retain separate state and failure handling.
Mysterium probe and execution policy services/bandwidth/mysterium.yml, docker-compose*.yml, contrib/app-stores/*/docker-compose.yml, tests/test_mysterium_health_probe.py
Adds monitoring-status and recent-session checks. Updates proxy allowlists and fingerprints. Tests cover probe outcomes.
STUN port-pair diagnostic and operating guide scripts/stun_port_pair.py, docs/guides/mysterium.md, tests/test_mysterium_health_probe.py
Adds a STUN diagnostic for neighboring UDP ports and documents its result codes, use, limits, and troubleshooting options.
GeiserX/CashPilot#576: Changes which containers service_instances includes, affecting the copies the health-probe reader can enumerate.
GeiserX/CashPilot#444: Defines service-copy enumeration used by the probe reader’s per-copy processing.
Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review e50d4
Fix probe recovery and deadline handling before merging: temporary Docker failures can disable subsequent checks, while other failure paths can hide findings or retain obsolete diagnoses. The STUN diagnostic can also discard an already measured rewrite.

…l broken
- Read the five newest provided sessions of any age: a 14-day window empties
out once discovery stops offering the node, and the check cleared itself.
- Run the two reads independently, so a slow monitoring status (it asks the
remote quality oracle) never costs the local sessions read.
- Bound the probe with timeout 12 (required by the schema now), so a hung
docker exec cannot hold a pool thread for good.
- Drop a verdict after 24 h of unread probes; a node the worker keeps
reporting as unreadable gets a hint saying so instead.
- Monitoring-failed hint sends to the /dev/net/tun and SETUID check first.
- STUN script tells a pairing router apart from a NAT that rewrites every
port (symmetric NAT, CGNAT, VPN, Docker Desktop); the guide says to run it
on Linux Docker Engine.
- Guide and UDP_PORTS help: a narrow range fails on pairing routers; fix list
ordered as we would try them with each cost; range capped at 1,000 ports
below 32768; CashPilot always pins --udp.ports.

Review comments at @app/main.py:
- Around line 2058-2059: Update the sweep flow around _health_probe_rows so a
failed or timed-out filtered log read does not skip the health probe; handle the
log-read failure separately and still let the probe update the node’s verdict,
preserving existing behavior for successful log reads.
- Line 2005: Update the health-probe handling around the `_proxy_to_worker` call
for `/api/health-probes` so completed probe readings are returned even when
slower reads have not finished by the proxy deadline. Preserve available results
instead of failing the entire batch or returning only stale hints.
- Around line 2076-2079: Update the worker response handling around row["hits"]
to include and validate a fingerprint of the probe definition against the UI’s
definition before using any hit indexes. Treat a fingerprint mismatch as an
unread probe even when hits is empty, and only use indexes with the existing

Review comments at @docs/guides/mysterium.md:
- Around line 278-283: Update the “Confirm it” guidance for
scripts/stun_port_pair.py to distinguish host-side masquerading from router port
rewriting: note that REWRITTEN on test ports outside UDP_PORTS does not confirm
a session-port problem, and require checking the host’s outgoing port before
recommending router changes.
Review comments at @scripts/stun_port_pair.py:
- Around line 128-129: Update the completion and exit-status logic in the
port-pair probe so a probe that cannot check both ports of a pair returns a
nonzero inconclusive status instead of reporting success. Preserve the success
status only when all pairs are fully checked, and document the inconclusive
status alongside the script’s existing status documentation.
- Around line 73-79: Update the STUN diagnostic flow around _server so a
selected server that does not answer triggers a retry with the next configured
server, rather than ending the test after DNS resolution succeeds. Preserve the
existing server order and report outbound UDP blockage only after all configured
servers have failed to answer.
- Line 61: Update the STUN request and response flow around sock.sendto to catch
socket network errors during sending and receiving, and return the script’s
documented no-answer status when no reply is obtained; preserve the existing
verdict behavior for successful replies.
Review comments at @services/bandwidth/mysterium.yml:
- Around line 178-180: Update both BusyBox wget calls in the node monitoring and
completed sessions checks to disable proxy use, ensuring requests to
127.0.0.1:4050 go directly to the local node regardless of inherited proxy
settings.
- Around line 178-180: Update the monitoring and sessions checks in this worker
so they are evaluated independently rather than chained in a way that discards
the monitoring response when the sessions request fails. Preserve the latest
monitoring verdict when the sessions check is unreadable, and retain the last
verdict for any other unread check.
- Line 180: Update the completed-session probe query in the bandwidth check to
select the five most recently completed sessions, ordering or filtering by
completion time rather than start time. Use a TequilAPI-supported mechanism and
preserve the existing direction, status, date, and page-size constraints;
establish the supported query behavior if the current endpoint cannot provide
this ordering.

…e node can be read
A stalled Docker exec stream no longer holds a probe pool thread: the probe
runs on its own client with a socket timeout, and timed-out queued work is
cancelled. The worker answers within a batch budget and returns the copies it
read in time. The UI handles a failed log read and the probe separately,
ignores hits from another catalog version (a definition fingerprint), and keeps
the last verdict per check, so a failed sessions read no longer drops a
monitoring status of "failed".
The node now judges the five sessions that completed last, not the five that
started last, and its loopback reads skip any inherited proxy. The two-port
STUN test reports a network error as no answer, falls back to the next STUN
server, and exits 3 when a pair could not be tested in full. The guide shows
how to tell the host's own NAT from the router.
Note: CodeRabbit is an incremental review system and does not re-review already reviewed commits. This command is applicable only when automatic reviews are paused.
…end a stalled exec stream
The shipped socket proxy only runs exec commands the policy lists, and the
policy never listed docker.health_probe, so every probe read would have been
refused and the node shown as unreadable. The policy now takes the probe
command from the catalog like the other node reads, and the compose files
carry the regenerated policy.
docker-py's exec reader waits on the socket with no timeout, so a client
socket timeout never bounded the stream. The probe now reads the raw exec
socket itself against a deadline, closes the connection when it gives up,
and never queues a read behind busy threads.
The sessions read widens from 25 to 100, so a long session that ended last
is almost never missed.

…the socket proxy refuses them
Listing the copies now runs on the probe's own short-timeout client and
within the batch budget, so a stalled listing cannot outlast the UI's wait.
The next call starts with the first copy the last one did not reach, so a
slow copy cannot keep the later ones unread. A read the socket proxy refuses
says so, and names the update when the proxy's policy is older than the
worker, instead of sending the operator to the node's logs. The policy also
picks up probes in .yaml catalog files, which the catalog loads too.
The two-port test rejects ports outside 1 to 65535 with its own exit status
instead of reading them as a rewrite, and no longer claims a forward cannot
work when it only measured ports with no forward.
…es the port's mapping
Measured on an affected node: a wider UDP_PORTS range does not help (1,000
ports rewrote none at idle, the narrow range only a few percent). What breaks
sessions is that once any packet from outside reaches a port, the router
rewrites the source port of later flows from it to other addresses, and every
session starts with such a packet from the node's own port check. Port-pair
reservation is real but secondary.
The guide now explains that, drops the wider range as a fix, gives the start
and removal cost of many published ports and the deploy limit past about 350,
and lists bridge mode with an endpoint-independent router, then an untested
port-check workaround. The decisive test (one packet in from another network,
then STUN from that port) is a manual step; the script and the catalog texts
say the same.

…, and drop the failed workaround
A command cut short by its timeout now keeps the checks whose marker made it
out, and the sessions marker comes after its data, so a partial read never
passes for a healthy one. The next batch starts with the first service the
last one did not reach, and listing the copies is bounded by the batch's
remaining time, so the rows already read still reach the UI. The UI keeps a
retained verdict only for the probe definition it was read against.
The STUN test gives each try its own deadline, keeps one pair of sockets open
at a time, exits 5 when it cannot open one, and no longer says a VPN rules out
a forward. The guide stops the node from CashPilot for the decisive test, and
reports that switching the node to hole punching was tried on an affected
node and did not help.

cannot exceed the batch budget and prevent probe rows from being returned.
Review comments at @app/main.py:
- Around line 2176-2178: Update the fallback that restores kept_state from
_probe_hints so it checks the cached finding’s age against the existing stale
limit before adding it to probe_state; discard expired findings while preserving
the fallback for findings still within the limit.
- Around line 2147-2150: In _keep(), compare the current
health_probe.fingerprint(spec) with the stored definition before calling
database.get_worker, and invalidate stale probe diagnosis and hints immediately
when it changes so a failed lookup cannot preserve them. Keep log hints
independently of probe-definition changes.
Review comments at @scripts/stun_port_pair.py:
- Around line 183-187: Update the run/NoSocket handling so a socket failure
after a rewritten port has been measured preserves that measurement and returns
the documented rewrite status 1. Keep the existing status 5 and “nothing was
tested” behavior when no measurement was made.
Review comments at @services/bandwidth/mysterium.yml:
- Line 211: Update the session-reading flow around the “sessions read: all”
marker so it prints only after the response has been successfully parsed and the
pipeline has succeeded. Preserve valid empty session lists as successful reads,
and leave failures unmarked so prior unread findings remain intact.

…lled listing, and judge sessions only after a full sort
A batch that could not make its Docker client kept the pool slot it had
taken, so a few such batches left the probe unable to read anything. The
client is now made on the pool in that slot. A listing that always stalls
no longer keeps the services behind it from their turn.
A sweep that could not reach the database or fold the probe rows kept the
last probe hints with no check of the catalog's definition or of the
one-day limit; both now apply on that path too.
The sessions marker printed even when awk or sort failed, so an empty
output read as a healthy node. It now needs the whole pipeline to work,
while an empty session list still counts as read. The STUN script keeps
a rewrite it already measured when the machine runs out of sockets.

Summary
A Mysterium node can look healthy while it earns nothing. If the router in front of it rewrites the source port of some outgoing UDP flows, inbound traffic still works. So the node's own port check passes, the log says
Method:manual Success:true, and the dashboard shows nothing wrong. But buyers drop the node's answers, which come from a port they did not dial, so every session ends after about a minute with 0 bytes. We hit this on two nodes, which went ten days without a working session.One pattern behind it: some ISP fibre boxes reserve outgoing UDP ports in pairs. Mapping port P also holds P XOR 1, and a later flow from the partner port leaves with a random port. Pinning
--udp.portsto a narrow forwarded range (30 ports) makes that collision nearly certain, because a session's second port is almost always the partner of one already mapped.The node's own API shows the failure. Mysterium's monitoring status reads
failed, and the last sessions are all about a minute long and empty. On a working node, monitoring readssuccessand sessions carry data./nat/typeanswersprconeeither way, so this change does not read it.Fix
docker.health_probeis a new catalog block (app/health_probe.py). The worker runs a read-only command inside the node and sends back only the indexes of the checks that hold, never the node's answer. It is served atGET /api/health-probes. The catalog validates the block at load./node/monitoring-status, and the 5 newest completed provided/sessionsof any age (no date window: a broken node stops being offered, and a window would empty out and clear the check while the node is still broken). The two reads are independent, so a slow monitoring status, which asks Mysterium's remote quality oracle, never costs the local sessions read. The run is bounded bytimeout 12, which the schema now requires. It has two checks:failed;${WORKER_NAME}is a new placeholder, filled with the worker's name. Each hint names the likely cause and links the guide section.

Desktop's runtime loader ignores unknown keys, but its CI does not:
TestEveryVendoredKeyIsReadByTheLoaderstrict-decodes every vendored catalog file, so a sync carryinghealth_probewould fail it. GeiserX/CashPilot-Desktop#281 adds a passthrough field, as fornode_firewall. Merge it before the next catalog sync. Desktop would need its own probe runner to show this finding, which is a separate follow-up.Type of Change

tests/test_mysterium_health_probe.py(35 tests) covers each check, a healthy-node negative control, thresholds, malformed declarations, the worker read and endpoint, and the sweep, including blip, stale-verdict and old-worker handling. A mutated session regex makes it fail. The related suites also pass locally: catalog, the NAT hint, node balance, audit guards and route checks.Summary by CodeRabbit
