iceweasel-oai 8121710ffe install WFP filters for Windows sandbox setup (#20101)
## Summary

This PR installs a first wave of WFP (Windows Filtering Platform)
filters that reduce the surface area of network egress vulnerabilities
for the Windows Sandbox.

- Add persistent Windows Filtering Platform provider, sublayer, and
filters for the Windows sandbox offline account.
- Install WFP filters during elevated full setup, log failures
non-fatally, and emit setup metrics when analytics are enabled.
- Bump the Windows sandbox setup version so existing users rerun full
setup and receive the new filters.

## What WFP is
Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) is the low-level Windows networking
policy engine underneath things like Windows Firewall. It lets
privileged code install persistent filtering rules at specific network
stack layers, with conditions like "only traffic from this Windows
account" or "only this remote port," and an action like block.

In this change, we create a Codex-owned persistent WFP provider and
sublayer, then install block filters scoped to the Windows sandbox's
offline user account via `ALE_USER_ID`. That means the filters are
targeted at sandboxed processes running as that account, rather than
globally affecting the host.

## Initial filter set
We are starting with 12 concrete WFP filters across a few high-value
bypass surfaces. The table below describes the filter families rather
than one filter per row:

| Area | Concrete filters | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| ICMP | 4 filters: ICMP v4/v6 on `ALE_AUTH_CONNECT` and
`ALE_RESOURCE_ASSIGNMENT` | Block direct ping-style network reachability
checks from the offline account. |
| DNS | 2 filters: remote port `53` on `ALE_AUTH_CONNECT_V4/V6` | Block
direct DNS queries that bypass our intended proxy/offline path. |
| DNS-over-TLS | 2 filters: remote port `853` on
`ALE_AUTH_CONNECT_V4/V6` | Block encrypted DNS attempts that could
bypass ordinary DNS interception. |
| SMB / NetBIOS | 4 filters: remote ports `445` and `139` on
`ALE_AUTH_CONNECT_V4/V6` | Block Windows file-sharing/network share
traffic from sandboxed processes. |

For IPv4/IPv6 coverage, the port-based filters are installed on both
`ALE_AUTH_CONNECT_V4` and `ALE_AUTH_CONNECT_V6`. ICMP also gets both
connect-layer and resource-assignment-layer coverage because ICMP
traffic is shaped differently from ordinary TCP/UDP port traffic.

## Validation
- `cargo fmt -p codex-windows-sandbox` (completed with existing
stable-rustfmt warnings about `imports_granularity = Item`)
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox wfp::tests`
- `cargo test -p codex-windows-sandbox` (fails in existing legacy
PowerShell sandbox tests because `Microsoft.PowerShell.Utility` could
not be loaded; WFP tests passed before that failure)

npm i -g @openai/codex
or brew install --cask codex

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Install globally with your preferred package manager:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.

Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan

Run codex and select Sign in with ChatGPT. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, or Enterprise plan. Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan.

You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires additional setup.
