WSLHostPatcher

Dynamic patch WSL2 to listen port on any interfaces.

How it work

The localhost port actually forward by wslhost.exe on Windows, but it listen on localhost only.

WSLHostPatcher will scan all wslhost.exe processes, then inject into it to hook bind API listen on any IP. There is no any background processes neither cost any performance.

How to use

Download release and unzip it on Windows. Run WSLHostPatcher.exe after WSL2 started. This patch needs to running on every time WSL starts, and only the ports listening after running patch will work. You can also put it in your .profile, so it will run automatically, see #1.

How to restore

wsl --shutdown or Reboot system.

Security Consideration

Listen port on any interfaces may cause some security problems. You are on your own.
