VPN IP leak test

Find your public IP addresses and check your connection for privacy risks and suspicious activity.

    How does this work?

    The VPN leak test combines all tests available on the site:

    It also checks proxy headers and known Tor exit addresses. Connect to your VPN, then click Run test.

    How to check VPN leaks in a terminal?

    Use the scripts available here: https://github.com/macvk/vpnleaktest.

    What do suspicious findings mean?

    A highlighted result is something to review. WebRTC may expose an address you intended to hide, while unexpected DNS servers or different IPv4 and IPv6 networks may indicate a routing issue. Open ports, blacklist listings, proxy headers, and Tor exit addresses can identify services or connection characteristics without proving that your real IP address has leaked.

    What is a browser fingerprint?

    A browser fingerprint combines details about your browser, system, screen, graphics, and audio settings. Sites can use this combination to recognize your browser even after your IP address changes. Connect to your VPN and run the test several times. If the fingerprint remains the same, you can be identified by your browser fingerprint even when your VPN is connected and no IP leaks are detected.

    What is a CLI fingerprint?

    A CLI fingerprint is based on request details the server receives from a command-line tool, such as its User-Agent and HTTP headers. The test shows these details and a short SHA-256 hash. Websites may use this fingerprint to recognize your script across runs.
