Problems Corrected in 2.4.5<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>In previous versions, when the command is 'start', 'restart' or
|
|
|
|
|
|
'stop' then OUTPUT traffic to hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped is not enabled if ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
That traffic is now enabled independent of the setting of
|
|
|
|
|
|
ADMINISABSENTMINDED.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Although it was documented that icmp types could be used in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcrules file, the code did not support it. Thanks to Jorge Molina, that
|
|
|
|
|
|
problem is now corrected.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>In a multi-ISP configuration, fwmark routing rules now have a
|
|
|
|
|
|
higher priority than source IP rules. This allows entries in tcrules to
|
|
|
|
|
|
be more effective in controlling routing.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Previously, not all of the mangle chains were flushed during
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall restart".</li>

Problems Corrected<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An incorrect comment in the /etc/shorewall/proxyarp file has been
|
|
|
|
|
|
removed.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The message generated when a duplicate policy has been entered is
|
|
|
|
|
|
now more informative. Previously, only the POLICY column contents
|
|
|
|
|
|
appeared in the message. Now the SOURCE, DEST and POLICY column
|
|
|
|
|
|
contents are shown.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now clears the Netfilter "raw" table during "shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
[re]start", "shorewall stop" and "shorewall clear" processing.</li>
|

New Features<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Tunnel types "openvpnserver" and "openvpnclient" have been added
|
|
|
|
|
|
to reflect the introduction of client and server OpenVPN configurations
|
|
|
|
|
|
in OpenVPN 2.0.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The COMMAND variable is now set to 'restore' in restore scripts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The value of this variable is sometimes of interest to programmers
|
|
|
|
|
|
providing custom /etc/shorewall/tcstart scripts.<br>

|
|
<li>Shorewall is no longer dependent on the 'which' utility.</li>

|
|

columns of the /etc/shorewall/accounting file.</li>
|
|

the availability of "Packet type match" independent of the setting of
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

<li>When <network1>!<network2> was specified in the

New Features:<br>

|

|
to use marking to specify the gateway used by connections originating
|
|
|
|
|
|
on the firewall itself, the specify 'loose' for each provider. It has
|
|
|
|
|
|
bee reported that 'loose' may break the effect of 'track' so beware if
|
|
|
|
|
|
you need 'track' functionality (you shouldn't be originating many

|
|
|
connections from your firewall to the net anyway).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|

To use 'loose', you also need to add two entries in /etc/shorewall/masq:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<pre><span style="font-family: monospace;">#INTERFACE SUBNET ADDRESS<br>
|
|

|
|

$IF_ISP2 is the interface to ISP 2.<br>

<li>/sbin/shorewall now issues a warning each time that it finds that

|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new COPY column has been added to the /etc/shorewall/providers
|
|
|
|
|
|
file. Normally, when a table name/number is given in the DUPLICATE
|
|
|
|
|
|
column, the entire table (less default routes) is copied. The COPY
|
|
|
|
|
|
column allows you to limit the routes copied to those that go through
|
|
|
|
|
|
an interface listed in COPY. For example, if you enter eth0 in
|
|
|
|
|
|
INTERFACE, "eth1,eth2" in COPY and 'main' in DUPLICATE then the new
|
|
|
|
|

<h2><a name="20050717"></a><font color="#ff0000">07/17/2005 Security
|
|
|
|
|
|
vulnerability in MACLIST processing</font></h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Description</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>A security vulnerability has been discovered which affects all
|
|
|
|
|
|
supported stable versions of Shorewall. This vulnerability
|
|
|
|
|
|
enables a client accepted by MAC address filtering to bypass any other
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule. If MACLIST_TTL is set to a value greater than 0 or
|
|
|
|
|
|
MACLIST_DISPOSITION is set to "ACCEPT" in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
(default is MACLIST_TTL=0 and MACLIST_DISPOSITION=REJECT), and a client
|
|
|
|
|
|
is positively identified through its MAC address, it bypasses all other
|
|
|
|
|
|
policies/rules in place, thus gaining access to all open services on
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3>Fix</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h4>Workaround</h4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>For Shorewall 2.2.x or 2.4.x, set MACLIST_TTL=0 or
|
|
|
|
|
|
MACLIST_DISPOSITION=REJECT in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. For
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall 2.0.x, set MACLIST_DISPOSITION=REJECT in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. MACLIST filtering is of limited
|
|
|
|
|
|
value on Internet-connected hosts, and the Shorewall team recommends
|
|
|
|
|
|
this approach to be used if possible.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h4>Upgrade</h4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>For Shorewall 2.4.x, a fixed version of the 'firewall' script is

|
|
<p>Users of any version before 2.0.17 are urged to upgrade to a
|
|
|
|
|
|
supported version of Shorewall (preferably 2.4.1) before using the
|
|
|
|
|
|
fixed files. Only the most recent version of the 2.0.x and 2.2.x
|
|
|
|
|
|
streams will be supported by the development team, and the 1.x branches
|
|
|
|
|
|
are no longer maintained at all. Future releases of Shorewall
|
|
|
|
|

will include this fix.</p>

Problems Corrected:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shell variables may now be used in the zones file.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The /usr/share/shorewall/bogons file has been updated to reflect
|
|
|
|
|
|
recent IANA allocations.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now detects an error where multiple providers specify
|
|
|
|
|
|
the 'track' option on the same interface.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The remnants of the GATEWAY column in /etc/shorewall/interfaces
|
|
|
|
|
|
have been removed. This column appeared briefly in one of the Beta
|
|
|
|
|
|
versions and was immediately removed but some vestiges remained.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now correctly restores a load-balancing default route
|
|
|
|
|
|
during processing of the 'shorewall restore' and 'shorewall -f start'
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands. The latter command is normally executed by the Shorewall init
|
|
|
|
|
|
script during reboot.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A log level of "None!" is now allowed on builtin actions such as
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT and DROP.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Previously, LIMIT:BURST parameters in /etc/shorewall/policy were
|
|
|
|
|
|
not correctly applied when the policy was QUEUE.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The 'chkconfig' command on FC4 and Mandriva previously created
|
|
|
|
|
|
symbolic links with incorrect names ("S-1shorewall"). The init script
|
|
|
|
|
|
has been changed to prevent this incorrect behavior.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>DHCP traffic forwarded through a bridge could, under some
|
|
|
|
|
|
configurations, be filtered by the 'maclist' option even though the
|
|
|
|
|
|
'dhcp' option was specified. This has been corrected.<br>

Note:</span> Because of the short time that has elapsed since the

release of Shorewall 2.2.0, Shorewall 2.0 will be supported until 1
|
|
|
|

December 2005 or until the release of Shorewall 2.6.0, whichever occurs

first.<br>

The file /etc/shorewall/providers may be used to define the different

|
providers. It can actually be used to define alternate routing tables
|
|
|

so uses like transparent proxy can use the file as well.<br>

Use of this feature requires that your kernel and iptabls support
|
|
|
|
|
|
CONNMARK target and conntrack match support. It does NOT require the
|
|
|
|
|
|
ROUTE target extension.<br>

|
|
|
WARNING: The current version of iptables (1.3.1) is broken with respect
|
|
|
|
|
|
to CONNMARK and iptables-save/iptables-restore. This means that if you
|
|
|
|
|
|
configure multiple ISPs, "shorewall restore" may fail. You must patch
|
|
|
|
|
|
your iptables using the patch at <a

match facility in Netfilter. Like all owner match options, 'cmd-owner'
|

Note that this is not a particularly robust feature and I
|
|
|
|
|
|
would never advertise it as a "Personal Firewall" equivalent. Using
|
|
|
|
|
|
symbolic links, it's easy to alias command names to be anything you
|
|
|
|
|
|
want.<br>

|
|
<br>

|

|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Support has been added for ipsets (see <a
|
|
|
|
|
|
href="http://people.netfilter.org/kadlec/ipset/">http://people.netfilter.org/kadlec/ipset/</a>).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In most places where a host or network address may be used, you may
|
|
|
|
|
|
also use the name of an ipset prefaced by "+".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example: "+Mirrors"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The name of the set may be optionally followed by:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) a number from 1 to 6 enclosed in square brackets ([]) -- this number
|
|
|
|
|
|
indicates the maximum number of ipset binding levels that are to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
matched. Depending on the context where the ipset name is used, either
|
|
|
|
|
|
all "src" or all "dst" matches will be used.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example: "+Mirrors[4]"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) a series of "src" and "dst" options separated by commas and inclosed
|
|
|
|
|
|
in square brackets ([]). These will be passed directly to iptables in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the generated --set clause. See the ipset documentation for details.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
"+Mirrors[src,dst,src]"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that "+Mirrors[4]" used in the SOURCE column of the rules file is
|
|
|
|
|
|
equivalent to "+Mirrors[src,src,src,src]".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To generate a negative match, prefix the "+" with "!" as in "!+Mirrors".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

Shorewall can automatically capture the contents of your ipsets for
|
|
|
|
|
|
you. If you specify SAVE_IPSETS=Yes in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
then "shorewall save" will save the contents of your ipsets. The file
|
|
|
|
|
|
where the sets are saved is formed by taking the name where the
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall configuration is stored and appending "-ipsets". So if you
|
|
|
|
|
|
enter the command "shorewall save standard" then your Shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration will be saved in var/lib/shorewall/standard and your
|
|
|
|
|
|
ipset contents will be saved in /var/lib/shorewall/standard-ipsets.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Assuming the default RESTOREFILE setting, if you just enter "shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
save" then your Shorewall configuration will be saved in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/shorewall/restore and your ipset contents will be saved in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/shorewall/restore-ipsets.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Regardless of the setting of SAVE_IPSETS, the "shorewall -f start" and
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall restore" commands will restore the ipset contents
|
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding to the Shorewall configuration restored provided that the
|
|
|
|
|
|
saved Shorewall configuration specified exists.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, "shorewall restore standard" would restore the ipset
|
|
|
|
|
|
contents from /var/lib/shorewall/standard-ipsets provided that
|
|
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/shorewall/standard exists and is executable and that
|
|
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/shorewall/standard-ipsets exists and is executable.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also regardless of the setting of SAVE_IPSETS, the "shorewall forget"
|
|
|
|
|
|
command will purge the saved ipset information (if any) associated with
|
|
|
|
|
|
the saved shorewall configuration being removed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also associate ipset contents with Shorewall configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|
directories using the following command:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ipset -S > <config
|
|
|
|
|
|
directory>/ipsets<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ipset -S > /etc/shorewall/ipsets<br>
|
|
|
|
|

When you start or restart Shorewall (including using the 'try' command)
|
|
|
|
|
|
from the configuration directory, your ipsets will be configured from
|
|
|
|
|
|
the saved ipsets file. Once again, this behavior is independent of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
setting of SAVE_IPSETS.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ipsets are well suited for large blacklists. You can maintain your
|
|
|
|
|
|
blacklist using the 'ipset' utility without ever having to restart or
|
|
|
|
|
|
refresh Shorewall. If you use the SAVE_IPSETS=Yes feature just be sure
|
|
|
|
|
|
to "shorewall save" after altering the blacklist ipset(s).<br>
|
|
|
|

<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ipset -N SMTP portmap --from 1

<li>Shorewall 2.4.0 can now configure routing if your kernel and
|
|
|
|
|
|
iptables support the ROUTE target extension. This extension is
|
|
|
|
|
|
available in Patch-O-Matic-ng. This feature is *EXPERIMENTAL* since the
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netfilter team have no intention of ever releasing the ROUTE target
|
|
|
|
|
|
extension to kernel.org.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Routing is configured using the /etc/shorewall/routes file. Columns in

</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Normally when Shorewall is stopped, starting or restarting then
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections are allowed from hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped to the firewall and to other hosts listed
|
|
|
|
|
|
in /etc/shorewall/routestopped.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
A new 'source' option is added for entries in that file which will
|
|
|
|
|
|
cause Shorewall to allow traffic from the host listed in the entry to
|
|
|
|
|
|
ANY other host. When 'source' is specified in an entry, it is
|
|
|
|
|
|
unnecessary to also specify 'routeback'.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Similarly, a new 'dest' option is added which will cause Shorewall to
|
|
|
|
|
|
allow traffic to the host listed in the entry from ANY other host. When
|
|
|
|
|
|
'source' is specified in an entry, it is unnecessary to also specify
|
|
|
|
|
|
'routeback'.<br>

|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|

|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>This change was implemented by Lorenzo Martignoni. It provides
|
|
|
|
|
|
two new commands: "safe-start" and "safe-restart".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">safe-start</span> starts Shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
then prompts you to ask you if everything looks ok. If you answer "no"
|
|
|
|
|
|
or if you don't answer within 60 seconds, a "shorewall clear" is
|
|
|
|
|
|
executed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">safe-restart</span> saves your
|
|
|
|
|
|
current configuration to /var/lib/shorewall/safe-restart then issues a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall restart"; It then prompts you to ask if you if you want to
|
|
|
|
|
|
accept the new configuration. If you answer "no" or if you don't answer
|
|
|
|
|
|
within 60 seconds, the configuration is restored to its prior state.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
These new commands require either that your /bin/sh supports the "-t"
|
|
|
|
|
|
option to the 'read' command or that you have /bin/bash installed.<br>
|
|
|
|

|

|

It is with regret that I announce that my involvement in
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall development and support is officially ending.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unlike the originators of other successful open source
|
|
|
|
|
|
projects, I have not been able to attract a core of people who
|
|
|
|
|
|
believe in Shorewall and who are willing to make sacrifices to
|
|
|
|
|
|
ensure it's success. That is my weakness and I accept it. But
|
|
|
|
|
|
is means that I have been left with trying to develop,
|
|
|
|
|
|
document, and support Shorewall almost single-handedly. I
|
|
|
|
|
|
cannot do it any more.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
I will clean up what I have for a 2.3 release and place it on
|
|
|
|
|
|
the server as my last Shorewall release -- Shorewall 2.4.0.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Discussions aimed at continuing Shorewall development under
|
|
|
|
|
|
new leadership are continuing.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall will always be a part of my life that I look back on
|
|
|
|
|
|
with fondness.<br>

From a security architecture viewpoint, UPnP is a disaster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It assumes that:<br>

|
|
|
|
|
2005-09-23 02:56:29 +02:00

<ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">

<li>All local systems and their users are completely
|
|
|
|
|
|
trustworthy.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

<li>No local system is infected with any worm or

trojan.</li>

|

If either of these assumptions are not true then UPnP can
|
|
|
|
|
|
be used to totally defeat your firewall and to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
incoming connections to arbitrary local systems on any port
|
|
|
|
|
|
whatsoever.<br>
|
|
|
|
|

In short: <span style="font-weight: bold;">USE UPnP AT

YOUR OWN RISK</span>.<br>

The linux-igd project appears to be inactive and the web
|
|
|
|
|
|
site does not display correctly on any open source browser

that I've tried.<br>
|

<br>
|

Building and installing linux-igd is not for the faint of
|

|
|
|
|
heart. You must download the source from CVS and be
|
|
|
|
|
|
prepared to do quite a bit of fiddling with the include
|
|
|
|
|
|
files from libupnp (which is required to build and/or run

linux-igd).<br>

In /etc/shorewall/interfaces, you need the 'upnp' option on

<br>
|

If your fw->loc policy is not ACCEPT then you need this

rule:<br>

<br>
|

|
|
|

|
fw loc<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: To use 'allowoutUPnP', your iptables and kernel must
|
|
|
|
|
|
support the 'owner match' feature (see the output of
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall check").<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|

If your loc->fw policy is not ACCEPT then you need this

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

<ol start="2" style="list-style-type: decimal;">
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new 'started' extension script has been added.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The difference between this extension script and
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/start is that this one is invoked after
|
|
|
|
|
|
delayed loading of the blacklist (DELAYBLACKLISTLOAD=Yes) and
|
|
|
|
|
|
after the 'shorewall' chain has been created (thus signaling
|
|
|
|
|
|
that the firewall is completely up.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/started should not change the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration directly but may do so indirectly by running
|
|
|
|
|
|
/sbin/shorewall with the 'nolock' option.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>By default, shorewall is started with the "-f" (fast)
|
|
|
|
|
|
option when your system boots. You can override that setting
|
|
|
|
|
|
by setting the OPTIONS variable in /etc/sysconfig/shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
(SuSE/Redhat) or /etc/default/shorewall (Debian/Bering). If
|
|
|
|
|
|
neither file exists, feel free to create one or the
|
|
|
|
|
|
other.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example: If you want Shorewall to always use the config
|
|
|
|
|
|
files even if there is a saved configuration, then
|
|
|
|
|
|
specify:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS=""<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now has support for the SAME target. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
change affects the /etc/shorewall/masq and
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules file.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
SAME is useful when you specify multiple target IP addresses
|
|
|
|
|
|
(in the ADDRESSES column of /etc/shorewall/masq or in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST column of /etc/shorewall/rules).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you use normal SNAT then multiple connections from a
|
|
|
|
|
|
given local host to hosts on the internet can be assigned
|
|
|
|
|
|
different source IP addresses. This confuses some
|
|
|
|
|
|
applications that use multiple connections. To correct this
|
|
|
|
|
|
problem, prefix the list of address ranges in the ADDRESS
|
|
|
|
|
|
column with "SAME:"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example: SAME:206.124.146.176-206.124.146.180<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want each internal system to use the same IP address
|
|
|
|
|
|
from the list regardless of which internet host it is talking
|
|
|
|
|
|
to then prefix the ranges with "SAME:nodst:".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
SAME:nodst:206.124.146.176-206.124.146.180<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that it is not possible to map port numbers when using
|
|
|
|
|
|
SAME.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the rules file, when multiple connections from an
|
|
|
|
|
|
internet host match a SAME rule then all of the connections
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be sent to the same internal server. SAME rules are very
|
|
|
|
|
|
similar to DNAT rules with the keyword SAME replacing DNAT.
|
|
|
|
|
|
As in the masq file, changing the port number is not
|
|
|
|
|
|
supported.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>

<li>A "shorewall show capabilities" command has been added to

|
|
<li>A "-v" option has been added to /sbin/shorewall.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently, this option only affects the "show log" command
|
|
|
|
|
|
(e.g., "shorewall -v show log") and the "monitor" command. In
|
|
|
|
|
|
these commands, it causes the MAC address in the log message
|
|
|
|
|
|
(if any) to be displayed. As previously, when "-v" is
|
|
|
|
|
|
omitted, the MAC address is suppressed.<br>

|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
<li>In /etc/shorewall/rules, a value of 'none' in either the
|
|
|
|
|
|
SOURCE or DEST columns now causes the rule to be ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is most useful when used with shell variables:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:<br>
|
|

|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules:<br>

|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
When FTP_CLIENTS
|
|
|
|
|
|
is set to 'none', the above rule is ignored. Otherwise,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the rule is evaluated and generates Netfilter rules.<br>

<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new extension script "continue" has been added. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
script is invoked after Shorewall has set the built-in filter
|
|
|
|
|
|
chains policy to DROP, deleted any existing Netfilter rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
and user chains and has enabled existing connections. It is
|
|
|
|
|
|
useful for enabling certain communication while Shorewall is
|
|
|
|
|
|
being [re]started. Be sure to delete any rules that you add
|
|
|
|
|
|
here in your /etc/shorewall/start file.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>There has been ongoing confusion about how the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped file works. People understand how
|
|
|
|
|
|
it works with the 'shorewall stop' command but when they read
|
|
|
|
|
|
that 'shorewall restart' is logically equivalent to
|
|
|
|
|
|
'shorewall stop' followed by 'shorewall start' then they
|
|
|
|
|
|
erroneously conclude that /etc/shorewall/routestopped can be
|
|
|
|
|
|
used to enable new connections during 'shorewall restart'. Up
|
|
|
|
|
|
to now, it cannot -- that file is not processed during either
|
|
|
|
|
|
'shorewall start' or 'shorewall restart'.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Beginning with Shorewall version 2.2.3,
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped will be processed TWICE during
|
|
|
|
|
|
'shorewall start' and during 'shorewall restart'. It will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
processed early in the command execution to add rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
allowing new connections while the command is running and it
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be processed again when the command is complete to
|
|
|
|
|
|
remove the rules added earlier.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The result of this change will be that during most of
|
|
|
|
|
|
[re]start, new connections will be allowed in accordance with
|
|
|
|
|
|
the contents of /etc/shorewall/routestopped.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The performance of configurations with a large numbers of
|
|
|
|
|
|
entries in /etc/shorewall/maclist can be improved by setting
|
|
|
|
|
|
the new MACLIST_TTL variable in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your iptables and kernel support the "Recent Match" (see
|
|
|
|
|
|
the output of "shorewall check" near the top), you can cache
|
|
|
|
|
|
the results of a 'maclist' file lookup and thus reduce the
|
|
|
|
|
|
overhead associated with MAC Verification.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
When a new connection arrives from a 'maclist' interface,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the packet passes through then list of entries for that
|
|
|
|
|
|
interface in /etc/shorewall/maclist. If there is a match then
|
|
|
|
|
|
the source IP address is added to the 'Recent' set for that
|
|
|
|
|
|
interface. Subsequent connection attempts from that IP
|
|
|
|
|
|
address occuring within $MACLIST_TTL seconds will be accepted
|
|
|
|
|
|
without having to scan all of the entries. After $MACLIST_TTL
|
|
|
|
|
|
from the first accepted connection request from an IP
|
|
|
|
|
|
address, the next connection request from that IP address
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be checked against the entire list.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If MACLIST_TTL is not specified or is specified as empty
|
|
|
|
|
|
(e.g, MACLIST_TTL="" or is specified as zero then 'maclist'
|
|
|
|
|
|
lookups will not be cached.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|

<li>You can now specify QUEUE as a policy and you can
|
|
|
|
|
|
designate a common action for QUEUE policies in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/actions. This is useful for sending packets to
|
|
|
|
|
|
something like Snort Inline.<br>

|
|
|
|
This error is now considered fatal and Shorewall will be

|
|
|
host/network address or address range.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now clears the output device only if it is a
|

terminal. This avoids ugly control sequences being placed in

files when /sbin/shorewall output is redirected.</li>

'shorewall status' display.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The 2.6.11 Linux kernel and iptables 1.3.0 now allow port
|
|
|
|
|
|
ranges to appear in port lists handled by "multiport match".
|
|
|
|
|
|
If Shorewall detects this capability, it will use "multiport
|
|
|
|
|
|
match" for port lists containing port ranges. Be cautioned
|
|
|
|
|
|
that each port range counts for TWO ports and a port list
|
|
|
|
|
|
handled with "multiport match" can still specify a maximum of
|
|
|
|
|
|
15 ports.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
As always, if a port list in /etc/shorewall/rules is
|
|
|
|
|
|
incompatible with "multiport match", a separate iptables rule
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be generated for each element in the list.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Traditionally, the RETURN target in the 'rfc1918' file
|
|
|
|
|
|
has caused 'norfc1918' processing to cease for a packet if
|
|
|
|
|
|
the packet's source IP address matches the rule. Thus, if you
|

|
|

have:<br>

Setting RFC1918_STRICT=Yes in shorewall.conf will cause such

traffic to be logged and dropped since while the packet's
|
|

If not specified or specified as empty (e.g.,

|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Recent 2.6 kernels include code that evaluates TCP
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets based on TCP Window analysis. This can cause packets
|
|
|
|
|
|
that were previously classified as NEW or ESTABLISHED to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
classified as INVALID.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new kernel code can be disabled by including this
|
|
|
|
|
|
command in your /etc/shorewall/init file:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo 1 >
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_tcp_be_liberal<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional kernel logging about INVALID TCP packets may be
|
|
|
|
|
|
obtained by adding this command to /etc/shorewall/init:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo 1 >
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_log_invalid<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Traditionally, Shorewall has dropped INVALID TCP packets
|
|
|
|
|
|
early. The new DROPINVALID option allows INVALID packets to
|
|
|
|
|
|
be passed through the normal rules chains by setting
|
|
|
|
|
|
DROPINVALID=No.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If not specified or if specified as empty (e.g.,
|
|
|
|
|
|
DROPINVALID="") then DROPINVALID=Yes is assumed.</li>

<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>ICMP packets that are in the INVALID state are now
|
|
|
|
|
|
dropped by the Reject and Drop default actions. They do so
|
|
|
|
|
|
using the new 'dropInvalid' builtin action. An 'allowInvalid'
|
|
|
|
|
|
builtin action is also provided which accepts packets in that
|
|
|
|
|
|
state.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The /etc/shorewall/masq file INTERFACE column now allows
|
|
|
|
|
|
additional options.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Normally MASQUERADE/SNAT rules are evaluated after
|
|
|
|
|
|
one-to-one NAT rules defined in the /etc/shorewall/nat file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you preceed the interface name with a plus sign ("+") then
|
|
|
|
|
|
the rule will be evaluated before one-to-one NAT.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
+eth0<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
+eth1:192.0.2.32/27<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also, the effect of ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes can be negated for
|
|
|
|
|
|
an entry by following the interface name by ":" but no
|
|
|
|
|
|
digit.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
eth0:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
eth1::192.0.2.32/27<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
+eth3:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Similar to 2), the /etc/shorewall/nat file INTERFACE
|
|
|
|
|
|
column now allows you to override the setting of
|
|
|
|
|
|
ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes by following the interface name with ":"
|
|
|
|
|
|
but no digit.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>All configuration files in the Shorewall distribution
|
|
|
|
|
|
with the exception of shorewall.conf are now empty. In
|
|
|
|
|
|
particular, the /etc/shorewall/zones, /etc/shorewall/policy
|
|
|
|
|
|
and /etc/shorewall/tos files now have no active entries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hopefully this will stop the questions on the support and
|
|
|
|
|
|
development lists regarding why the default entries are the
|
|
|
|
|
|
way they are.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Previously, including a log level (and optionally a log
|
|
|
|
|
|
tag) on a rule that specified a user-defined (or
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall-defined) action would log all traffic passed to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
action. Beginning with this release, specifying a log level
|
|
|
|
|
|
in a rule that specifies a user- or Shorewall-defined action
|
|
|
|
|
|
will cause each rule in the action to be logged with the
|
|
|
|
|
|
specified level (and tag).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The extent to which logging of action rules occurs is
|
|
|
|
|
|
goverend by the following:</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li style="list-style: none">
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>When you invoke an action and specify a log level,
|
|
|
|
|
|
only those rules in the action that have no log level
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be changed to log at the level specified at the
|
|
|
|
|
|
action invocation.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>

|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|

</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>If you follow the log level with "!" then logging

|
|
|
|

will be at that level for all rules recursively invoked
|

This change has an effect on extension scripts used with

|
user-defined actions. If you define an action 'acton' and you
|
|
|
|
|
|
have an /etc/shorewall/acton script then when that script is
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. In order to get Shorewall to

|

|
|
|
|
|
|

<li>It causes /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf to be

<li>Support has been added for the 2.6 Kernel IPSEC
|
|

implementation. To use this support, you must have installed
|
|
|
|
|
|
the IPSEC policy match patch and the four IPSEC/Netfilter
|
|
|
|
|
|
patches from Patch-0-Matic-ng. The policy match patch affects
|
|
|
|
|
|
both your kernel and iptables. There are two ways to specify
|
|
|
|
|
|
that IPSEC is to be used when communicating with a set of
|
|
|
|
|
|
hosts; both methods involve the new /etc/shorewall/ipsec

file:</li>

|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>If encrypted communication is used with all hosts in
|
|
|
|
|
|
a zone, then you can designate the zone as an "ipsec"
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone by placing 'Yes" in the IPSEC ONLY column in
|
|
|
|

/etc/shorewall/ipsec:<br>

The hosts in the zone (if any) must be specified in

/etc/shorewall/hosts but you do not need to specify the

Dynamic zones involving IPSEC must use that

The /etc/shorewall/masq file has a new IPSEC column added.

packets will have their source address changed. Otherwise,

the unencrypted packets will not have their source addresses

changed. This column may also contain a comma-separated list

of the options specified above in which case only those

packets that will be encrypted by an SA matching the given

<li>To improve interoperability, tunnels of type 'ipsec' no
|
|
|
|
|
|
longer enforce the use of source port 500 for ISAKMP and
|
|
|
|
|
|
OpenVPN tunnels no longer enforce use of the specified port
|
|
|
|
|
|
as both the source and destination ports.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new 'allowBcast' builtin action has been added -- it
|
|
|
|
|
|
silently allows broadcasts and multicasts.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The -c option in /sbin/shorewall commands is now
|
|
|
|
|
|
deprecated. The commands where -c was previously allowed now
|
|
|
|
|
|
permit you to specify a configuration directory after the
|
|
|
|
|
|
command:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall check [
|
|
|
|

</li>
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Normally, when SNAT or MASQUERADE is applied to a tcp or
|
|
|
|
|
|
udp connection, Netfilter attempts to retain the source port
|
|
|
|
|
|
number. If it has to change to port number to avoid
|
|
|
|
|
|
<source address>,<source port> conflicts, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
tries to do so within port ranges ( < 512, 512-1023, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
> 1023). You may now specify an explicit range of source
|
|
|
|
|
|
ports to be used by following the address or address range
|
|
|
|
|
|
(if any) in the ADDRESS column with ":" and a port range in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the format <low-port>-<high-port>. You must
|
|
|
|
|
|
specify either "tcp" or "udp" in the PROTO column.<br>

/etc/shorewall/accounting for details.</li>

<li>Shorewall now verifies that your kernel and iptables have

|
<li>Beginning with this release, if your kernel and iptables
|
|
|
|
|
|
have iprange match support (see the output from "shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
check"), then with the exception of the /etc/shorewall/netmap
|
|
|
|
|
|
file, anywhere that a network address may appear an IP
|
|
|
|
|
|
address range of the form <low address>-<high

|
|
|
|
address> may also appear.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Support has been added for the iptables CLASSIFY target.
|
|
|
|
|
|
That target allows you to classify packets for traffic
|
|
|
|
|
|
shaping directly rather than indirectly through fwmark.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Simply enter the <major>:<minor> classification

|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/masq are processed then they are re-added
|
|
|
|
|
|
later. This is done to help ensure that the addresses can be
|
|
|
|
|
|
added with the specified labels but can have the undesirable
|
|
|
|
|
|
side effect of causing routes to be quietly deleted. A new
|
|
|
|
|
|
RETAIN_ALIASES option has been added to shorewall.conf; when
|
|
|
|
|
|
this option is set to Yes, existing addresses will not be
|
|
|
|
|
|
deleted. Regardless of the setting of RETAIN_ALIASES,
|
|
|
|
|
|
addresses added during "shorewall start" are still deleted at
|
|

a subsequent "shorewall stop" or "shorewall restart".</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Users with a large black list (from
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/blacklist) may want to set the new
|
|
|
|
|
|
DELAYBLACKLISTLOAD option in shorewall.conf. When
|
|
|
|
|
|
DELAYBLACKLISTLOAD=Yes, Shorewall will enable new connections
|
|
|
|
|
|
before loading the blacklist rules. While this may allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections from blacklisted hosts to slip by during
|
|
|
|
|
|
construction of the blacklist, it can substantially reduce
|
|
|
|
|
|
the time that all new connections are disabled during
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall [re]start".</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Using the default LOGFORMAT, chain names longer than 11
|
|
|
|
|
|
characters (such as in user-defined actions) may result in
|
|
|
|
|
|
log prefix truncation. A new shorewall.conf action
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOGTAGONLY has been added to deal with this problem. When
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOGTAGONLY=Yes, logging rules that specify a log tag will
|
|
|
|
|
|
substitute the tag for the chain name in the log prefix.<br>

</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now resets the 'accept_source_route' flag for
|
|
|
|
|
|
all interfaces. If you wish to accept source routing on an
|
|
|
|
|
|
interface, you must specify the new 'sourceroute' interface
|
|
|
|
|
|
option in /etc/shorewall/interfaces.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The default Drop and Reject actions now invoke the new
|
|
|
|
|
|
standard action 'AllowICMPs'. This new action accepts
|
|
|
|
|
|
critical ICMP types:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type 3 code 4 (fragmentation needed)<br>
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Explicit control over the kernel's Martian logging is now
|
|
|
|
|
|
provided using the new 'logmartians' interface option. If you
|
|
|
|
|
|
include 'logmartians' in the interface option list then
|
|
|
|
|
|
logging of Martian packets on will be enabled on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
specified interface. If you wish to globally enable martian
|
|
|
|
|
|
logging, you can set LOG_MARTIANS=Yes in shorewall.conf.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>You may now cause Shorewall to use the '--set-mss' option
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the TCPMSS target. In other words, you can cause Shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
to set the MSS field of SYN packets passing through the
|
|
|
|
|
|
firewall to the value you specify. This feature extends the
|
|
|
|
|
|
existing CLAMPMSS option in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf by
|
|
|
|
|
|
allowing that option to have a numeric value as well as the
|
|
|
|
|
|
values "Yes" and "No".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
CLAMPMSS=1400<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now includes support for the ipp2p match
|
|
|
|
|
|
facility. This is a departure from my usual policy in that
|
|
|
|
|
|
the ipp2p match facility is included in Patch-O-Matic-NG and
|
|
|
|
|
|
is unlikely to ever be included in the kernel.org source
|
|
|
|
|
|
tree. Questions about how to install the patch or how to
|
|
|
|
|
|
build your kernel and/or iptables should not be posted on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall mailing lists.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the following files, the "PROTO" or "PROTOCOL" column may
|
|
|
|
|
|
contain "ipp2p":<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/tcrules<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/accounting<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the PROTO or PROTOCOL column contains "ipp2p" then the
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST PORT(S) or PORT(S) column may contain a recognized ipp2p
|
|
|
|
|
|
option; for a list of the options and their meaning, at a
|
|
|
|
|
|
root prompt:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
iptables -m ipp2p --help<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
You must not include the leading "--" on the option;
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall will supply those characters for you. If you do not
|
|
|
|
|
|
include an option then "ipp2p" is assumed (Shorewall will
|
|
|
|
|
|
generate "-m ipp2p --ipp2p").</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now has support for the CONNMARK target from
|
|
|
|
|
|
iptables. See the /etc/shorewall/tcrules file for
|
|
|
|
|
|
details.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new debugging option LOGALLNEW has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall.conf. When set to a log level, this option causes
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall to generaate a logging rule as the first rule in
|
|
|
|
|
|
each builtin chain.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The table name is used as the chain
|
|
|
|
|
|
name in the log prefix.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The chain name is used as the target in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the log prefix.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example: Using the default LOGFORMAT, the log prefix for
|
|
|
|
|
|
logging from the nat table's PREROUTING chain is:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style=
|
|
|
|
|
|
"font-family: monospace;">Shorewall:nat:PREROUTING</span><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: There is no rate limiting on these logging rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
so use LOGALLNEW at your own risk; it may cause high CPU and
|
|
|
|
|
|
disk utilization and you may not be able to control your
|
|
|
|
|
|
firewall after you enable this option.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
DANGER: DO NOT USE THIS OPTION IF THE RESULTING LOG MESSAGES
|
|
|
|
|
|
WILL BE SENT TO ANOTHER SYSTEM.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The SUBNET column in /etc/shorewall/rfc1918 has been
|
|
|
|
|
|
renamed SUBNETS and it is now possible to specify a list of
|
|
|
|
|
|
addresses in that column.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The AllowNNTP action now also allows NNTP over SSL/TLS
|
|
|
|
|
|
(NNTPS).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>For consistency, the CLIENT PORT(S) column in the tcrules
|
|
|
|
|
|
file has been renamed SOURCE PORT(S).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The contents of /proc/sys/net/ip4/icmp_echo_ignore_all is
|
|
|
|
|
|
now shown in the output of "shorewall status".</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new IPTABLES option has been added to shorewall.conf.
|
|
|
|
|
|
IPTABLES can be used to designate the iptables executable to
|
|
|
|
|
|
be used by Shorewall. If not specified, the iptables
|
|
|
|
|
|
executable determined by the PATH setting is used.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>You can now use the "shorewall show zones" command to
|
|
|
|
|
|
display the current contents of the zones. This is
|
|
|
|
|
|
particularly useful if you use dynamic zones
|
|
|
|
|
|
(DYNAMIC_ZONES=Yes in shorewall.conf).<br>

|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The output of "shorewall status" now includes the results
|
|
|
|
|
|
of "ip -stat link ls". This helps diagnose performance
|
|
|
|
|
|
problems caused by link errors.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Previously, when rate-limiting was specified in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/policy (LIMIT:BURST column), any traffic which
|
|
|
|
|
|
exceeded the specified rate was silently dropped. Now, if a
|
|
|
|
|
|
log level is given in the entry (LEVEL column) then drops are
|
|
|
|
|
|
logged at that level at a rate of 5/min with a burst of
|
|
|
|
|
|
5.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Recent 2.6 kernels include code that evaluates TCP
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets based on TCP Window analysis. This can cause packets
|
|
|
|
|
|
that were previously classified as NEW or ESTABLISHED to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
classified as INVALID.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new kernel code can be disabled by including this
|
|
|
|
|
|
command in your /etc/shorewall/init file:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style=
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional kernel logging about INVALID TCP packets may be
|
|
|
|
|
|
obtained by adding this command to /etc/shorewall/init:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style=

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Traditionally, Shorewall has dropped INVALID TCP packets
|
|
|
|
|
|
early. The new DROPINVALID option allows INVALID packets to
|
|
|
|
|
|
be passed through the normal rules chains by setting
|
|
|
|
|
|
DROPINVALID=No.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If not specified or if specified as empty (e.g.,
|
|
|
|
|
|
DROPINVALID="") then DROPINVALID=Yes is assumed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The "shorewall add" and "shorewall delete" commands now
|
|
|
|
|
|
accept a list of hosts to add or delete.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|

has some limitations:</li>

establishing an IPSEC SA to/from remote networks. The script
|
|
|
|
|
|
has some limitations:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Only one instance of the script may be
|
|
|
|
|
|
used at a time.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Only the first SPD accessed will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
instantiated at the remote gateway. So while the script
|
|
|
|
|
|
creates SPDs to/from the remote gateway and each network
|
|
|
|
|
|
listed in the NETWORKS setting at the front of the script,
|
|
|
|
|
|
only one of these may be used at a time.<br>

<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Recent 2.6 kernels include code that evaluates TCP
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets based on TCP Window analysis. This can cause packets
|
|
|
|
|
|
that were previously classified as NEW or ESTABLISHED to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
classified as INVALID.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new kernel code can be disabled by including this
|
|
|
|
|
|
command in your /etc/shorewall/init file:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo 1 >
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_tcp_be_liberal<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional kernel logging about INVALID TCP packets may be
|
|
|
|
|
|
obtained by adding this command to /etc/shorewall/init:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo 1 >
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_log_invalid<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Traditionally, Shorewall has dropped INVALID TCP packets
|
|
|
|
|
|
early. The new DROPINVALID option allows INVALID packets to
|
|
|
|
|
|
be passed through the normal rules chains by setting
|
|
|
|
|
|
DROPINVALID=No.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If not specified or if specified as empty (e.g.,
|
|
|
|
|
|
DROPINVALID="") then DROPINVALID=Yes is assumed.<br>

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The "shorewall add" and "shorewall delete" commands now
|
|
|
|
|
|
accept a list of hosts to add or delete.<br>
|
|
|
|

|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples:<br>
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall add eth1:1.2.3.4 eth1:2.3.4.5

|
/etc/shorewall/start script were executed prior to the

To accomplish this change, the "restore base" file

when the host was added to the zone. For example, if

|
|

eth0:1.2.3.4 is added to dynamic zone Z then traffic out of
|
|
|
|
|
|
any firewall interface to 1.2.3.4 will obey the fw->Z

|
policies and rules. This has been corrected.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall uses the temporary chain 'fooX1234' to probe
|
|
|
|
|
|
iptables for detrmining which features are supported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Previously, if that chain happened to exist when Shorewall

<li>The behavior produced by specifying a log level in an
|
|
|
|
|
|
action invocation is now much more rational. Previously, all
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets sent to the action were logged; now each rule within
|
|
|
|
|
|
the invoked action behaves as if logging had been specified
|
|
|
|
|
|
on it.</li>

|
|
|
|
|

dropped rather than being rejected with an ICMP (which is a

|

packet type match support are likely to see messages

</b> Effective today, Shorewall is adopting a new release model

which takes ideas from the one used in the Linux Kernel and

|
from the release model for Postfix.</p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The first two levels

(e.g., 2.1, 2.3, ...) are <i>Development Releases</i>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Development releases are where new functionality is
|
|
|
|
|
|
introduced. Documentation for new features will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
available but it may not be up to the standards of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
stable release documentation. Sites running Development
|
|
|
|
|
|
Releases should be prepared to play an active role in
|
|
|
|
|
|
testing new features. Bug fixes and problem resolution for
|
|
|
|
|
|
the development release take a back seat to support of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
stable releases. Problem reports for the current
|
|
|
|
|
|
development release should be sent to the <a href=
|

<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">When the level of
|
|
|
|
|
|
functionality of the current development release is judged
|
|
|
|
|
|
adaquate, the Beta period for a new Stable release will
|
|
|
|
|
|
begin. Beta releases have identifications of the form
|
|
|
|
|
|
<i>x.y.0-BetaN</i> where <i>x.y</i> is the number of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
next Stable Release and <i>N</i>=1,2,3... . Betas are
|
|
|
|
|
|
expected to occur rougly once per year. Beta releases may
|
|
|
|
|
|
contain new functionality not present in the previous beta
|
|
|
|
|
|
release (e.g., 2.2.0-Beta4 may contain functionality not
|
|
|
|
|
|
present in 2.2.0-Beta3). When I'm confident that the
|
|
|
|
|
|
current Beta release is stable, I will release the first
|
|
|
|
|
|
<i>Release Candidate.</i> Release candidates have
|
|
|
|
|
|
identifications of the form <i>x.y.0-RCn</i> where
|
|
|
|
|
|
<i>x.y</i> is the number of the next Stable Release and
|
|
|
|
|
|
<i>n</i>=1,2,3... . Release candidates contain no new
|
|
|
|
|
|
functionailty -- they only contain bug fixes. When the
|
|
|
|
|
|
stability of the current release candidate is judged to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
sufficient then that release candidate will be released as
|
|
|
|
|
|
the new stable release (e.g., 2.2.0). At that time, the new
|
|
|
|
|
|
stable release and the prior stable release are those that
|
|
|
|
|
|
are supported.</p>

Peña has discovered an exploitable vulnerability in the way

that Shorewall handles temporary files and directories. The

vulnerability can allow a non-root user to cause arbitrary

<li>The "shorewall delete" command now correctly removes all
|
|
|
|
|
|
dynamic rules pertaining to the host(s) being deleted. Thanks
|
|
|
|
|

to Stefan Engel for this correction.</li>

<li>Extension Scripts -- In order for extension scripts to
|
|
|
|
|
|
work properly with the new iptables-save/restore integration
|
|
|
|
|
|
(see New Feature 1 below), some change may be required to
|
|
|
|
|
|
your extension scripts. If your extension scripts are
|
|
|
|
|
|
executing commands other than iptables then those commands
|
|
|
|
|
|
must also be written to the restore file (a temporary file in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/shorewall that is renamed
|
|
|
|
|
|
/var/lib/shorewall/restore-base at the end of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
operation).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following functions should be of help:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
A. save_command() -- saves the passed command to the restore
|
|
|
|
|
|
file.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
save_command echo
|
|
|
|
|
|
Operation Complete<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
That command would simply write "echo Operation
|
|
|
|
|
|
Complete" to the restore file.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
B. run_and_save_command() -- saves the passed command to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
restore file then executes it. The return value is the exit
|
|
|
|
|
|
status of the command.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
run_and_save_command
|
|
|
|
|
|
"echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that as in this example, when the
|
|
|
|
|
|
command involves file redirection then the entire command
|
|
|
|
|
|
must be enclosed in quotes. This applies to all of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
functions described here.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
C. ensure_and_save_command() -- runs the passed command. If
|
|
|
|
|
|
the command fails, the firewall is restored to it's prior
|
|
|
|
|
|
saved state and the operation is terminated. If the command
|
|
|
|
|
|
succeeds, the command is written to the restore file.<br>

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall has now been integrated with
|
|
|
|
|
|
iptables-save/iptables-restore to provide very fast start and
|
|
|
|
|
|
restart. The elements of this integration are as follows:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) The 'shorewall save' command now saves the current
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration in addition to the current dynamic blacklist.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you have dynamic zones, you will want to issue 'shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
save' when the zones are empty or the current contents of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
zones will be restored by the 'shorewall restore' and
|
|
|
|
|
|
'shorewall -f start' commands.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) The 'shorewall restore' command has been added. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
command restores the configuration at the time of the last
|
|
|
|
|
|
'save'.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
c) The -f (fast) option has been added to 'shorewall start'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
When specified (e.g. 'shorewall -f start'), shorewall will
|
|
|
|
|
|
perform a 'shorewall restore' if there is a saved
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration. If there is no saved configuration, a normal
|
|
|
|
|
|
'shorewall start' is performed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
d) The /etc/init.d/shorewall script now translates the
|
|
|
|
|
|
'start' command into 'shorewall -f start' so that fast
|
|
|
|
|
|
restart is possible.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
e) When a state-changing command encounters an error and
|
|
|
|
|
|
there is current saved configuration, that configuration will
|
|
|
|
|
|
be restored (currently, the firewall is placed in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
'stopped' state).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
f) If you have previously saved the running configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|
and want Shorewall to discard it, use the 'shorewall forget'
|
|
|
|
|
|
command. WARNING: iptables 1.2.9 is broken with respect to
|
|
|
|
|
|
iptables-save; if your kernel has connection tracking match
|
|
|
|
|
|
support, you must patch iptables 1.2.9 with the iptables
|
|
|
|
|
|
patch availale from the Shorewall errata page.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The previous implementation of dynamic zones was
|
|
|
|
|
|
difficult to maintain. I have changed the code to make
|
|
|
|
|
|
dynamic zones optional under the control of the DYNAMIC_ZONES
|
|
|
|
|
|
option in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>In earlier Shorewall 2.0 releases, Shorewall searches in
|
|
|
|
|
|
order the following directories for configuration files.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) The directory specified in a 'try' command or specified
|
|
|
|
|
|
using the -c option.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) /etc/shorewall<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
c) /usr/share/shorewall<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this release, the CONFIG_PATH option is added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall.conf. CONFIG_PATH contains a list of directory
|
|
|
|
|
|
names separated by colons (":"). If not set or set to a null
|
|
|
|
|
|
value (e.g., CONFIG_PATH="") then
|
|
|
|
|
|
"CONFIG_PATH=/etc/shorewall:/usr/share/shorewall" is assumed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now Shorewall searches for shorewall.conf according to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
old rules and for other configuration files as follows:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) The directory specified in a 'try' command or specified
|
|
|
|
|
|
using the -c option.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) Each directory in $CONFIG_PATH is searched in
|
|
|
|
|
|
sequence.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In case it is not obvious, your CONFIG_PATH should include
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/shorewall and your shorewall.conf file must be in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the directory specified via -c or in a try command, in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall or in /usr/share/shorewall.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
For distribution packagers, the default CONFIG_PATH is set
|
|
|
|
|
|
in /usr/share/shorewall/configpath. You can customize this
|
|
|
|
|
|
file to have a default that differs from mine.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Previously, in /etc/shorewall/nat a Yes (or yes) in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOCAL column would only take effect if the ALL INTERFACES
|
|
|
|
|
|
column also contained Yes or yes. Now, the LOCAL columns
|
|
|
|
|
|
contents are treated independently of the contents of the ALL
|
|
|
|
|
|
INTERFACES column.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The folks at Mandrake have created yet another kernel
|
|
|
|
|
|
module naming convention (module names end in "ko.gz"). As a
|
|
|
|
|
|
consequence, beginning with this release, if MODULE_SUFFIX
|
|
|
|
|
|
isn't specified in shorewall.conf, then the default value is
|
|
|
|
|
|
"o gz ko o.gz ko.gz".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An updated bogons file is included in this release.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>In /etc/shorewall/rules and in action files generated
|
|
|
|
|
|
from /usr/share/shorewall/action.template, rules that perform
|
|
|
|
|
|
logging can specify an optional "log tag". A log tag is a
|
|
|
|
|
|
string of alphanumeric characters and is specified by
|
|
|
|
|
|
following the log level with ":" and the log tag.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT:info:ftp
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 21<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The log tag is appended to the log prefix generated by the
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOGPREFIX variable in /etc/shorewall/conf. If "ACCEPT:info"
|
|
|
|
|
|
generates the log prefix "Shorewall:net2dmz:ACCEPT:" then
|
|
|
|
|
|
"ACCEPT:info:ftp" will generate "Shorewall:net2dmz:ACCEPT:ftp
|
|
|
|
|
|
" (note the trailing blank). The maximum length of a log
|
|
|
|
|
|
prefix supported by iptables is 29 characters; if a larger
|
|
|
|
|
|
prefix is generated, Shorewall will issue a warning message
|
|
|
|
|
|
and will truncate the prefix to 29 characters.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new "-q" option has been added to /sbin/shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands. It causes the start, restart, check and refresh
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands to produce much less output so that warning messages
|
|
|
|
|
|
are more visible (when testing this change, I discovered a
|
|
|
|
|
|
bug where a bogus warning message was being generated).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now uses 'modprobe' to load kernel modules if
|
|
|
|
|
|
that utility is available in the PATH; otherwise, 'insmod' is
|
|
|
|
|
|
used.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>It is now possible to restrict entries in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/masq file to particular protocols and
|
|
|
|
|
|
destination port(s). Two new columns (PROTO and PORT(S)) have
|
|
|
|
|
|
been added to the file.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
You want all outgoing SMTP traffic entering the firewall on
|
|
|
|
|
|
eth1 to be sent from eth0 with source IP address
|
|
|
|
|
|
206.124.146.177. You want all other outgoing traffic from
|
|
|
|
|
|
eth1 to be sent from eth0 with source IP address
|
|
|
|
|
|
206.124.146.176.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
eth0 eth1 206.124.146.177
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 25<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
eth0 eth1
|
|
|
|
|
|
206.124.146.176<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
THE ORDER OF THE ABOVE TWO RULES IS SIGNIFICANT!!!!!<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Assuming that 10.0.0.0/8 is the only host/network connected
|
|
|
|
|
|
to eth1, the progress message at "shorewall start" would
|
|
|
|
|
|
be:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Masqueraded Networks and Hosts:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To 0.0.0.0/0 (tcp 25)
|
|
|
|
|
|
from 10.0.0.0/8 through eth0 using 206.124.146.177<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To 0.0.0.0/0 (all) from
|
|
|
|
|
|
10.0.0.0/8 through eth0 using 206.124.146.176<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Two new actions are available in the /etc/shorewall/rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
file.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT+ -- Behaves like
|
|

|
ACCEPT with the exception that it exempts matching
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections from subsequent DNAT[-] and REDIRECT[-]
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules.<br>
|
|

|
NONAT --

|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new extension script 'initdone' has been added. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
script is invoked at the same point as the 'common' script
|
|
|
|
|
|
was previously and is useful for users who mis-used that
|
|
|
|
|
|
script under Shorewall 1.x (the script was intended for
|
|
|
|
|
|
adding rules to the 'common' chain but many users treated it
|
|
|
|
|
|
as a script for adding rules before Shorewall's).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Installing/Upgrading Shorewall on Slackware has been
|
|
|
|
|
|
improved. Slackware users must use the tarball and must
|
|
|
|
|
|
modify settings in the install.sh script before running it as
|
|
|
|
|
|
follows:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST="/etc/rc.d"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
INIT="rc.firewall"<br>

Issues when migrating from Shorewall 2.0.0 to Shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.0.1:<br>

|

<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The function of 'norfc1918' is now split between that
|
|
|
|
|
|
option and a new 'nobogons' option.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The rfc1918 file released with Shorewall now contains
|
|
|
|
|
|
entries for only those three address ranges reserved by RFC
|
|
|
|
|
|
1918. A 'nobogons' interface option has been added which
|
|
|
|
|
|
handles bogon source addresses (those which are reserved by
|
|
|
|
|
|
the IANA, those reserved for DHCP auto-configuration and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
class C test-net reserved for testing and documentation
|
|
|
|
|
|
examples). This will allow users to perform RFC 1918
|
|
|
|
|
|
filtering without having to deal with out of date data from
|
|
|
|
|
|
IANA. Those who are willing to update their
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/shorewall/bogons file regularly can specify the
|
|
|
|
|
|
'nobogons' option in addition to 'norfc1918'.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The level at which bogon packets are logged is specified in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the new BOGON_LOG_LEVEL variable in shorewall.conf. If that
|
|
|
|
|
|
option is not specified or is specified as empty (e.g,
|
|
|
|
|
|
BOGON_LOG_LEVEL="") then bogon packets whose TARGET is
|
|
|
|
|
|
'logdrop' in /usr/share/shorewall/bogons are logged at the
|
|
|
|
|
|
'info' level.</li>

<p>Issues when migrating from Shorewall 1.4.x to Shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.0.0:<br>
|
|
|
|
|

</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The 'dropunclean' and 'logunclean' interface options are
|
|
|
|
|
|
no longer supported. If either option is specified in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces, an threatening message will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
generated.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The NAT_BEFORE_RULES option has been removed from
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall.conf. The behavior of Shorewall is as if
|
|
|
|
|
|
NAT_BEFORE_RULES=No had been specified. In other words, DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules now always take precidence over one-to-one NAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
specifications.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The default value for the ALL INTERFACES column in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/nat has changed. In Shorewall 1.*, if the
|
|
|
|
|
|
column was left empty, a value of "Yes" was assumed. This has
|
|
|
|
|
|
been changed so that a value of "No" is now assumed.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The following files don't exist in Shorewall 2.0:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/common.def<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/common<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/icmpdef<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/action.template (Moved to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/shorewall)<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rfc1918 (Moved to /usr/share/shorewall).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The /etc/shorewall/action file now allows an action to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
designated as the "common" action for a particular policy
|
|
|
|
|
|
type by following the action name with ":" and the policy
|
|
|
|
|
|
(DROP, REJECT or ACCEPT).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The file /usr/share/shorewall/actions.std has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
define those actions that are released as part of Shorewall.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In that file are two actions as follows:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Drop:DROP<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reject:REJECT<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "Drop" action is the common action for DROP policies
|
|
|
|
|
|
while the "Reject" action is the default action for "REJECT"
|
|
|
|
|
|
policies. These actions will be performed on packets prior to
|
|
|
|
|
|
applying the DROP or REJECT policy respectively. In the first
|
|
|
|
|
|
release, the difference between "Reject" and "Drop" is that
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Reject" REJECTs SMB traffic while "Drop" silently drops such
|
|
|
|
|
|
traffic.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
As described above, Shorewall allows a common action for
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT policies but does not specify such an action in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default configuration.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If for some reason, you don't wish to have a common DROP or
|
|
|
|
|
|
REJECT action, just include :DROP or :REJECT respectively in
|
|
|
|
|
|
your /etc/shorewall/actions file.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The file /usr/share/shorewall/actions.std catalogs the
|
|
|
|
|
|
standard actions and is processed prior to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/actions. This causes a large number of actions
|
|
|
|
|
|
to be defined. The files which define these aactions are also
|
|
|
|
|
|
located in /usr/share/shorewall as is the he action template
|
|
|
|
|
|
file (action.template).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
These actions may be used in the ACTION column of the rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
column. So for example, to allow FTP from your loc zone to
|
|
|
|
|
|
your firewall, you would place this rule in
|

If you want to redefine any of the Shorewall-defined
|
|
|
|
|
|
actions, simply copy the appropriate action file from
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/shorewall to /etc/shorewall and modify the copy as
|
|
|
|
|
|
desired. Your modified copy will be used rather than the
|
|
|
|
|
|
original one in /usr/share/shorewall.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: The 'dropBcast' and 'dropNonSyn' actions are built
|
|
|
|
|
|
into Shorewall and may not be changed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Beginning with version 2.0.0-Beta2, Shorewall will only
|
|
|
|
|
|
create a chain for those actions that are actually used.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The /etc/shorewall directory no longer contains a 'users'
|
|
|
|
|
|
file or a 'usersets' file. Similar functionality is now
|
|
|
|
|
|
available using user-defined actions.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now, action files created by copying
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/shorewall/action.template may specify a USER and
|
|
|
|
|
|
or GROUP name/id in the final column just like in the rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
file (see below). It is thus possible to create actions that
|
|
|
|
|
|
control traffic from a list of users and/or groups.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The last column in /etc/shorewall/rules is now labeled
|
|
|
|
|
|
USER/GROUP and may contain:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
[!]<user number>[:]<br>
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>It is no longer possible to specify rate limiting in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACTION column of /etc/shorewall/rules -- you must use the
|
|
|
|
|
|
RATE LIMIT column.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Depending on which method you use to upgrade, if you have
|
|
|
|
|
|
your own version of /etc/shorewall/rfc1918, you may have to
|
|
|
|
|
|
take special action to restore it after the upgrade. Look for
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rfc1918*, locate the proper file and rename it
|
|
|
|
|
|
back to /etc/shorewall/rfc1918. The contents of that file
|
|
|
|
|
|
will supercede the contents of
|
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/shorewall/rfc1918.</li>

|
|

|

<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The INCLUDE directive now allows absolute file
|
|
|
|
|
|
names.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A 'nosmurfs' interface option has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces. When specified for an interface,
|
|
|
|
|
|
this option causes smurfs (packets with a broadcast address
|
|
|
|
|
|
as their source) to be dropped and optionally logged (based
|
|
|
|
|
|
on the setting of a new SMURF_LOG_LEVEL option in
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall.conf).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>fw->fw traffic may now be controlled by Shorewall.
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is no need to define the loopback interface in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces; you simply add a fw->fw policy
|
|
|
|
|
|
and fw->fw rules. If you have neither a fw->fw policy
|
|
|
|
|
|
nor fw->fw rules, all fw->fw traffic is allowed.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>There is a new PERSISTENT column in the proxyarp file. A
|
|
|
|
|
|
value of "Yes" in this column means that the route added by
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall for this host will remain after a "shorewall stop"
|
|
|
|
|
|
or "shorewall clear".</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>"trace" is now a synonym for "debug" in /sbin/shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands. So to trace the "start" command, you could
|
|
|
|
|
|
enter:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall trace start 2> /tmp/trace<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The trace information would be written to the file
|
|
|
|
|
|
/tmp/trace.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>When defining an ipsec tunnel in /etc/shorewall/tunnels,
|
|
|
|
|
|
if you follow the tunnel type ("ipsec" or "ipsecnet") with
|
|
|
|
|
|
":noah" (e.g., "ipsec:noah"), then Shorewall will only create
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules for ESP (protocol 50) and will not create rules for AH
|
|
|
|
|
|
(protocol 51).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new DISABLE_IPV6 option has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall.conf. When this option is set to "Yes", Shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
will set the policy for the IPv6 INPUT, OUTPUT and FORWARD
|
|
|
|
|
|
chains to DROP during "shorewall [re]start" and "shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
stop". Regardless of the setting of this variable, "shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
clear" will silently attempt to set these policies to
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If this option is not set in your existing shorewall.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
then a setting of DISABLE_IPV6=No is assumed in which case,
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall will not touch any IPv6 settings except during
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall clear".</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The CONTINUE target is now available in action
|
|
|
|
|
|
definitions. CONTINUE terminates processing of the current
|
|
|
|
|
|
action and returns to the point where that action was
|
|
|
|
|
|
invoked.</li>

<li>There has been a low continuing level of confusion over
|
|
|
|
|
|
the terms "Source NAT" (SNAT) and "Static NAT". To avoid
|
|
|
|
|
|
future confusion, all instances of "Static NAT" have been
|
|
|
|
|
|
replaced with "One-to-one NAT" in the documentation and

configuration files.</li>

<li>Wild-card rules (those involving "all" as SOURCE or DEST)
|
|
|
|
|
|
will no longer produce an error if they attempt to add a rule
|
|
|
|
|
|
that would override a NONE policy. The logic for expanding
|
|
|
|
|
|
these wild-card rules now simply skips those (SOURCE,DEST)
|
|
|
|
|
|
pairs that have a NONE policy.</li>
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>DNAT rules that also specified SNAT now work reliably.
|

effectively ignored.</li>

XML packages.</li>

<li>To cut down on the number of "Why are these ports closed

|
|
|
|
|
rather than stealthed?" questions, the SMB-related rules in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/common.def have been changed from 'reject' to
|
|
|
|
|
|
'DROP'.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>For easier identification, packets logged under the
|
|
|
|
|
|
'norfc1918' interface option are now logged out of chains
|
|
|
|
|
|
named 'rfc1918'. Previously, such packets were logged under
|
|
|
|
|
|
chains named 'logdrop'.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Distributors and developers seem to be regularly
|
|
|
|
|
|
inventing new naming conventions for kernel modules. To avoid
|
|
|
|
|
|
the need to change Shorewall code for each new convention,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the MODULE_SUFFIX option has been added to shorewall.conf.
|
|
|
|
|
|
MODULE_SUFFIX may be set to the suffix for module names in
|
|
|
|
|
|
your particular distribution. If MODULE_SUFFIX is not set in
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall.conf, Shorewall will use the list "o gz ko
|
|
|
|
|
|
o.gz".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To see what suffix is used by your distribution:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
All of the files listed should have the same suffix
|
|
|
|
|
|
(extension). Set MODULE_SUFFIX to that suffix.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If all files end in ".kzo" then set
|
|
|
|
|
|
MODULE_SUFFIX="kzo"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If all files end in ".kz.o" then
|
|
|
|
|
|
set MODULE_SUFFIX="kz.o"</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Support for user defined rule ACTIONS has been
|
|
|
|
|
|
implemented through two new files:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/actions - used to list the user-defined
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACTIONS.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/action.template - For each user defined
|
|
|
|
|
|
<action>, copy this file to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/action.<action> and add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules for that <action>. Once an <action> has
|
|
|
|
|
|
been defined, it may be used like any of the builtin ACTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ACCEPT, DROP, etc.) in /etc/shorewall/rules.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example: You want an action that logs a packet at the 'info'
|
|
|
|
|
|
level and accepts the connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In /etc/shorewall/actions, you would add:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
LogAndAccept<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
You would then copy /etc/shorewall/action.template to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/action.LogAndAccept and in that file, you
|
|
|
|
|
|
would add the two rules:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOG:info<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The default value for NEWNOTSYN in shorewall.conf is now
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Yes" (non-syn TCP packets that are not part of an existing
|
|
|
|
|
|
connection are filtered according to the rules and policies
|
|
|
|
|
|
rather than being dropped). I have made this change for two
|
|
|
|
|
|
reasons:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) NEWNOTSYN=No tends to result in lots of "stuck"
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections since any timeout during TCP session tear down
|
|
|
|
|
|
results in the firewall dropping all of the retries.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) The old default of NEWNOTSYN=No and LOGNEWNOTSYN=info
|
|
|
|
|
|
resulted in lots of confusing messages when a connection got
|
|
|
|
|
|
"stuck". While I could have changed the default value of
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOGNEWNOTSYN to suppress logging, I dislike defaults that
|
|
|
|
|
|
silently throw away packets.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The common.def file now contains an entry that silently
|
|
|
|
|
|
drops ICMP packets with a null source address. Ad Koster
|
|
|
|
|
|
reported a case where these were occuring frequently as a
|
|
|
|
|
|

<p>Problems Corrected since version 1.4.8:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>There has been a low continuing level of confusion over
|
|
|
|
|
|
the terms "Source NAT" (SNAT) and "Static NAT". To avoid
|
|
|
|
|
|
future confusion, all instances of "Static NAT" have been
|
|
|
|
|
|
replaced with "One-to-one NAT" in the documentation and
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration files.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The description of NEWNOTSYN in shorewall.conf has been
|
|
|
|
|
|
reworded for clarity.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Wild-card rules (those involving "all" as SOURCE or DEST)
|
|
|
|
|
|
will no longer produce an error if they attempt to add a rule
|
|
|
|
|
|
that would override a NONE policy. The logic for expanding
|
|
|
|
|
|
these wild-card rules now simply skips those (SOURCE,DEST)
|
|
|
|
|
|
pairs that have a NONE policy.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>DNAT rules that also specified SNAT now work reliably.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Previously, there were cases where the SNAT specification was
|
|
|
|
|
|
effectively ignored.<br>

New Features:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The documentation has been completely rebased to Docbook
|
|
|
|
|
|
XML. The documentation is now released as separate HTML and
|
|
|
|
|
|
XML packages.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>To cut down on the number of "Why are these ports closed
|
|
|
|
|
|
rather than stealthed?" questions, the SMB-related rules in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/common.def have been changed from 'reject' to
|
|
|
|
|
|
'DROP'.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>For easier identification, packets logged under the
|
|
|
|
|
|
'norfc1918' interface option are now logged out of chains
|
|
|
|
|
|
named 'rfc1918'. Previously, such packets were logged under
|
|
|
|
|
|
chains named 'logdrop'.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Distributors and developers seem to be regularly
|
|
|
|
|
|
inventing new naming conventions for kernel modules. To avoid
|
|
|
|
|
|
the need to change Shorewall code for each new convention,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the MODULE_SUFFIX option has been added to shorewall.conf.
|
|
|
|
|
|
MODULE_SUFFIX may be set to the suffix for module names in
|
|
|
|
|
|
your particular distribution. If MODULE_SUFFIX is not set in
|
|
|
|
|
|
shorewall.conf, Shorewall will use the list "o gz ko
|
|
|
|
|
|
o.gz".<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To see what suffix is used by your distribution:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
All of the files listed should have the same suffix
|
|
|
|
|
|
(extension). Set MODULE_SUFFIX to that suffix.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If all files end in ".kzo" then set
|
|
|
|
|
|
MODULE_SUFFIX="kzo"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If all files end in ".kz.o" then
|
|
|
|
|
|
set MODULE_SUFFIX="kz.o"</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Support for user defined rule ACTIONS has been
|
|
|
|
|
|
implemented through two new files:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/actions - used to list the user-defined
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACTIONS.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/action.template - For each user defined
|
|
|
|
|
|
<action>, copy this file to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/action.<action> and add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules for that <action>. Once an <action> has
|
|
|
|
|
|
been defined, it may be used like any of the builtin ACTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ACCEPT, DROP, etc.) in /etc/shorewall/rules.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example: You want an action that logs a packet at the 'info'
|
|
|
|
|
|
level and accepts the connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In /etc/shorewall/actions, you would add:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
LogAndAccept<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
You would then copy /etc/shorewall/action.template to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/action.LogAndAccept and in that file, you
|
|
|
|
|
|
would add the two rules:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOG:info<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The default value for NEWNOTSYN in shorewall.conf is now
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Yes" (non-syn TCP packets that are not part of an existing
|
|
|
|
|
|
connection are filtered according to the rules and policies
|
|
|
|
|
|
rather than being dropped). I have made this change for two
|
|
|
|
|
|
reasons:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) NEWNOTSYN=No tends to result in lots of "stuck"
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections since any timeout during TCP session tear down
|
|
|
|
|
|
results in the firewall dropping all of the retries.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) The old default of NEWNOTSYN=No and LOGNEWNOTSYN=info
|
|
|
|
|
|
resulted in lots of confusing messages when a connection got
|
|
|
|
|
|
"stuck". While I could have changed the default value of
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOGNEWNOTSYN to suppress logging, I dislike defaults that
|
|
|
|
|
|
silently throw away packets.<br>
|
|
|
|

|

ROUTE_FILTER=Yes can coexist with the use of the

'routefilter' option in the interfaces file.</li>

<li>If MAC verification was enabled on an interface with a

<li>The NONE policy's intended use is to suppress the
|
|

|
generating of rules that can't possibly be traversed. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
means that a policy of NONE is inappropriate where the source
|
|
|
|
|
|
or destination zone is $FW or "all". Shorewall now generates
|
|
|
|
|
|
an error message if such a policy is given in

/etc/shorewall/policy. Previously such a policy caused

"shorewall start" to fail.</li>
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The 'routeback' option was broken for wildcard interfaces
|
|

|
(e.g., "tun+"). This has been corrected so that 'routeback'
|
|
|
|

now works as expected in this case.<br>

clients in the 'loc' zone, you would add the following
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

You would normally want to place those three rules BEFORE

<br>
|

Note: When the protocol specified is TCP ("tcp", "TCP" or
|
|
|
|
|
|
"6"), Shorewall will only pass connection requests (SYN

blacklists (dynamic and static) are only consulted for new

packet.<br>
|

<br>
|
|
|
|

Setting this option to "No" allows blacklisting to stop

existing connections from a newly blacklisted host but is
|
|
|
|
|
|
more expensive in terms of packet processing time. This is

<li>Tuomo Soini has supplied a correction to a problem that
|
|
|
|
|
|
occurs using some versions of 'ash'. The symptom is that
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall start" fails with:<br>

|
|
|
|
<li>In Shorewall 1.4.2, an optimization was added. This
|

|
|
|
|
optimization involved creating a chain named
|
|
|
|
|
|
"<zone>_frwd" for most zones defined using the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/hosts file. It has since been discovered that
|
|
|
|
|
|
in many cases these new chains contain redundant rules and
|
|
|
|
|
|
that the "optimization" turns out to be less than optimal.
|
|

The implementation has now been corrected.</li>

the first Netfilter rule generated by the entry. It is now

configured Shorewall.</li>

|
|
|
|
|
|
there could be many rules for the same IP address in the
|
|
|
|
|

dynamic chain so that multiple 'allow' commands were required

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall previously choked over IPV6 addresses
|
|
|
|
|
|
configured on interfaces in contexts where Shorewall needed
|
|
|
|
|
|
to detect something about the interface (such as when
|
|
|
|
|
|
"detect" appears in the BROADCAST column of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces file).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall will now load module files that are formed from
|
|
|
|
|
|
the module name by appending ".o.gz".</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>When Shorewall adds a route to a proxy ARP host and such
|
|
|
|
|
|
a route already exists, two routes resulted previously. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
has been corrected so that the existing route is replaced if
|
|
|
|
|
|
it already exists.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The rfc1918 file has been updated to reflect recent
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The documentation of the USER SET column in the rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
file has been corrected.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>If there is no policy defined for the zones specified in
|
|
|
|
|
|
a rule, the firewall script previously encountered a shell
|
|
|
|
|
|
syntax error:<br>

|

|
|
|
|

<br>
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

Now, the absence of a policy generates an error message and
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall is stopped:<br>
|
|

|
|
|
<br>
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
<li>Previously, if neither /etc/shorewall/common nor
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/common.def existed, Shorewall would fail to
|
|
|
|
|

start and would not remove the lock file. Failure to remove
|
|
|
|
|
|
the lock file resulted in the following during subsequent
|
|
|
|
|
|
attempts to start:<br>

Shorewall now reports a fatal error if neither of these two

<li>The order of processing the various options has been

|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The log message generated from the 'logunclean' interface
|
|
|
|

|
option has been changed to reflect a disposition of LOG
|
|
|

|
|
rather than DROP.</li>
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|

<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">When a user name and/or

|
|
|
|
|
|
command-specific help (e.g., shorewall help
|
|
|
|
|
|
<command>).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new option "ADMINISABSENTMINDED" has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. This option has a default
|
|
|
|
|
|
value of "No" for existing users which causes Shorewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
'stopped' state to continue as it has been; namely, in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the stopped state only traffic to/from hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped is accepted.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
With ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes (the default for new installs),
|
|
|
|
|
|
in addition to traffic to/from the hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped, Shorewall will allow:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) All traffic originating from the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself; and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) All traffic that is part of or related to an
|
|
|
|
|
|
already-existing connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall stop" entered through an ssh session will not kill
|
|
|
|
|
|
the session.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note though that even with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is still possible for people to shoot themselves in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
foot.<br>

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Given the wide range of VPN software, I can never hope to
|
|
|
|
|
|
add specific support for all of it. I have therefore decided
|
|
|
|
|
|
to add "generic" tunnel support.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic tunnels work pretty much like any of the other
|
|
|
|
|
|
tunnel types. You usually add a zone to represent the systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the other end of the tunnel and you add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules/policies to<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
implement your security policy regarding traffic to/from
|
|
|
|
|
|
those systems.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the /etc/shorewall/tunnels file, you can have entries of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the form:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
generic:<protocol>[:<port>]
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> <ip address>

<li>An 'arp_filter' option has been added to the

/etc/shorewall/interfaces file. This option causes
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/arp_filter to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
set with the result that this interface will only answer ARP
|
|
|
|
|
|
'who-has' requests from hosts that are routed out through
|
|
|
|
|
|
that interface. Setting this option facilitates testing of
|
|
|
|
|
|
your firewall where multiple firewall interfaces are
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected to the same HUB/Switch (all interfaces connected to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the single HUB/Switch should have this option specified).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that using such a configuration in a production
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment is strongly recommended against.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The ADDRESS column in /etc/shorewall/masq may now include
|
|
|
|
|

a comma-separated list of addresses and/or address ranges.
|
|
|
|
|

Netfilter will use all listed addresses/ranges in round-robin

fashion. \</li>
|

description of this facility.</li>
|
|

|
|
|
<li>Bridge interfaces (br[0-9]) may now be used in

/etc/shorewall/maclist.</li>
|

|
|
|
|
<li>ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] and LOG rules defined in
|
|
|
|

|
/etc/shorewall/rules may now be rate-limited. For DNAT and
|
|
|
|
|
|
REDIRECT rules, rate limiting occurs in the nat table DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule; the corresponding ACCEPT rule in the filter table is
|
|
|
|
|
|
not rate limited. If you want to limit the filter table rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
you will need o create two rules; a DNAT- rule and an ACCEPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule which can be rate-limited separately.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Warning:</span> When rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
limiting is specified on a rule with "all" in the SOURCE or
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST fields, the limit will apply to each pair of zones
|
|
|
|
|
|
individually rather than as a single limit for all pairs of
|
|
|
|
|
|
covered by the rule.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To specify a rate limit,<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) Follow ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] or LOG with<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>] ><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate> is the sustained
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate per <interval><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<interval> is "sec" or
|
|
|
|
|
|
"min"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<burst> is the largest
|
|
|
|
|
|
burst accepted within an <interval>. If not given, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default of 5 is assumed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
There may be no white space between the ACTION and "<"
|
|
|
|
|
|
nor there may be any white space within the burst
|
|
|
|
|
|
specification. If you want to specify logging of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate-limited rule, the ":" and log level comes after the
|
|
|
|
|
|
">" (e.g., ACCEPT<2/sec:4>:info ).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) A new RATE LIMIT column has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules file. You may specify the rate limit
|
|
|
|
|
|
there in the format:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>]<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's take an example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT<2/sec:4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 80<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first time this rule is reached, the packet will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
accepted; in fact, since the burst is 4, the first four
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets will be accepted. After this, it will be 500ms (1
|
|
|
|
|
|
second divided by the rate<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 2) before a packet will be accepted from this rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of how many packets reach it. Also, every 500ms
|
|
|
|
|
|
which passes without matching a packet, one of the bursts
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be regained; if no packets hit the rule for 2 second,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the burst will be fully recharged; back where we started.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Multiple chains may now be displayed in one "shorewall
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

<li>Output rules (those with $FW as the SOURCE) may now be

<li>Corrected problem in 1.4.6 where the MANGLE_ENABLED

variable was being tested before it was set.</li>
|
|
|

|
<li>Corrected handling of MAC addresses in the SOURCE column

an invalid iptables command.</li>

there could be many rules for the same IP address in the

/etc/shorewall/routestopped, Shorewall will allow:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) All traffic originating from the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself; and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) All traffic that is part of or related to an

already-existing connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|

<br>
|

In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Given the wide range of VPN software, I can never hope to
|
|
|
|
|
|
add specific support for all of it. I have therefore decided
|
|
|
|
|
|
to add "generic" tunnel support.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic tunnels work pretty much like any of the other
|
|
|
|
|
|
tunnel types. You usually add a zone to represent the systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the other end of the tunnel and you add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules/policies to<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
implement your security policy regarding traffic to/from
|
|
|
|
|
|
those systems.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the /etc/shorewall/tunnels file, you can have entries of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the form:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
generic:<protocol>[:<port>]
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> <ip address>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway zones><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<protocol> is the
|
|
|
|
|
|
protocol used by the tunnel<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<port> if
|
|
|
|
|
|
the protocol is 'udp' or 'tcp' then this is the destination
|
|
|
|
|
|
port number used by the tunnel.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the zone of the remote tunnel gateway<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ip address> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the IP address of the remote tunnel gateway.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone> Optional. A comma-separated list of zone
|
|
|
|
|
|
names. If specified, the remote gateway is to be considered
|
|
|
|
|
|
part of these zones.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'arp_filter' option has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces file. This option causes
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/arp_filter to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
set with the result that this interface will only answer ARP
|
|
|
|
|
|
'who-has' requests from hosts that are routed out through
|
|
|
|
|
|
that interface. Setting this option facilitates testing of
|
|
|
|
|
|
your firewall where multiple firewall interfaces are
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected to the same HUB/Switch (all interfaces connected to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the single HUB/Switch should have this option specified).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that using such a configuration in a production
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment is strongly recommended against.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The ADDRESS column in /etc/shorewall/masq may now include
|
|
|
|
|
|
a comma-separated list of addresses and/or address ranges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netfilter will use all listed addresses/ranges in round-robin
|
|
|
|
|
|
fashion. \</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An /etc/shorewall/accounting file has been added to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
for traffic accounting. See the <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Accounting.html">accounting documentation</a> for a
|
|
|
|
|
|
description of this facility.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Bridge interfaces (br[0-9]) may now be used in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/maclist.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] and LOG rules defined in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules may now be rate-limited. For DNAT and
|
|
|
|
|
|
REDIRECT rules, rate limiting occurs in the nat table DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule; the corresponding ACCEPT rule in the filter table is
|
|
|
|
|
|
not rate limited. If you want to limit the filter table rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
you will need o create two rules; a DNAT- rule and an ACCEPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule which can be rate-limited separately.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Warning:</span> When rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
limiting is specified on a rule with "all" in the SOURCE or
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST fields, the limit will apply to each pair of zones
|
|
|
|
|
|
individually rather than as a single limit for all pairs of
|
|
|
|
|
|
covered by the rule.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To specify a rate limit,<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) Follow ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] or LOG with<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>] ><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate> is the sustained
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate per <interval><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<interval> is "sec" or
|
|
|
|
|
|
"min"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<burst> is the largest
|
|
|
|
|
|
burst accepted within an <interval>. If not given, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default of 5 is assumed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
There may be no white space between the ACTION and "<"
|
|
|
|
|
|
nor there may be any white space within the burst
|
|
|
|
|
|
specification. If you want to specify logging of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate-limited rule, the ":" and log level comes after the
|
|
|
|
|
|
">" (e.g., ACCEPT<2/sec:4>:info ).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) A new RATE LIMIT column has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules file. You may specify the rate limit
|
|
|
|
|
|
there in the format:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>]<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's take an example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT<2/sec:4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 80<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first time this rule is reached, the packet will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
accepted; in fact, since the burst is 4, the first four
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets will be accepted. After this, it will be 500ms (1
|
|
|
|
|
|
second divided by the rate<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 2) before a packet will be accepted from this rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of how many packets reach it. Also, every 500ms
|
|
|
|
|
|
which passes without matching a packet, one of the bursts
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be regained; if no packets hit the rule for 2 second,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the burst will be fully recharged; back where we started.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Multiple chains may now be displayed in one "shorewall

|
|
OUTPUT).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

With ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes (the default for new installs),
|
|
|
|
|
|
in addition to traffic to/from the hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped, Shorewall will allow:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) All traffic originating from the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself; and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) All traffic that is part of or related to an
|
|
|
|
|
|
already-existing connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall stop" entered through an ssh session will not kill
|
|
|
|
|
|
the session.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note though that even with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is still possible for people to shoot themselves in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
foot.<br>

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Given the wide range of VPN software, I can never hope to
|
|
|
|
|
|
add specific support for all of it. I have therefore decided
|
|
|
|
|
|
to add "generic" tunnel support.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic tunnels work pretty much like any of the other
|
|
|
|
|
|
tunnel types. You usually add a zone to represent the systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the other end of the tunnel and you add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules/policies to<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
implement your security policy regarding traffic to/from
|
|
|
|
|
|
those systems.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the /etc/shorewall/tunnels file, you can have entries of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the form:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
generic:<protocol>[:<port>]
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> <ip address>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway zones><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<protocol> is the
|
|
|
|
|
|
protocol used by the tunnel<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<port> if
|
|
|
|
|
|
the protocol is 'udp' or 'tcp' then this is the destination
|
|
|
|
|
|
port number used by the tunnel.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the zone of the remote tunnel gateway<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ip address> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the IP address of the remote tunnel gateway.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone> Optional. A comma-separated list of zone
|
|
|
|
|
|
names. If specified, the remote gateway is to be considered
|
|
|
|
|
|
part of these zones.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'arp_filter' option has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces file. This option causes
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/arp_filter to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
set with the result that this interface will only answer ARP
|
|
|
|
|
|
'who-has' requests from hosts that are routed out through
|
|
|
|
|
|
that interface. Setting this option facilitates testing of
|
|
|
|
|
|
your firewall where multiple firewall interfaces are
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected to the same HUB/Switch (all interfaces connected to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the single HUB/Switch should have this option specified).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that using such a configuration in a production
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment is strongly recommended against.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The ADDRESS column in /etc/shorewall/masq may now include
|
|
|
|
|
|
a comma-separated list of addresses and/or address ranges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netfilter will use all listed addresses/ranges in round-robin
|
|
|
|
|
|
fashion. \</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An /etc/shorewall/accounting file has been added to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
for traffic accounting. See the <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Accounting.html">accounting documentation</a> for a
|
|
|
|
|
|
description of this facility.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Bridge interfaces (br[0-9]) may now be used in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/maclist.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] and LOG rules defined in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules may now be rate-limited. For DNAT and
|
|
|
|
|
|
REDIRECT rules, rate limiting occurs in the nat table DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule; the corresponding ACCEPT rule in the filter table is
|
|
|
|
|
|
not rate limited. If you want to limit the filter table rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
you will need o create two rules; a DNAT- rule and an ACCEPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule which can be rate-limited separately.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Warning:</span> When rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
limiting is specified on a rule with "all" in the SOURCE or
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST fields, the limit will apply to each pair of zones
|
|
|
|
|
|
individually rather than as a single limit for all pairs of
|
|
|
|
|
|
covered by the rule.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To specify a rate limit,<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) Follow ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] or LOG with<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>] ><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate> is the sustained
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate per <interval><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<interval> is "sec" or
|
|
|
|
|
|
"min"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<burst> is the largest
|
|
|
|
|
|
burst accepted within an <interval>. If not given, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default of 5 is assumed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
There may be no white space between the ACTION and "<"
|
|
|
|
|
|
nor there may be any white space within the burst
|
|
|
|
|
|
specification. If you want to specify logging of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate-limited rule, the ":" and log level comes after the
|
|
|
|
|
|
">" (e.g., ACCEPT<2/sec:4>:info ).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) A new RATE LIMIT column has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules file. You may specify the rate limit
|
|
|
|
|
|
there in the format:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>]<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's take an example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT<2/sec:4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 80<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first time this rule is reached, the packet will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
accepted; in fact, since the burst is 4, the first four
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets will be accepted. After this, it will be 500ms (1
|
|
|
|
|
|
second divided by the rate<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 2) before a packet will be accepted from this rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of how many packets reach it. Also, every 500ms
|
|
|
|
|
|
which passes without matching a packet, one of the bursts
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be regained; if no packets hit the rule for 2 second,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the burst will be fully recharged; back where we started.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Multiple chains may now be displayed in one "shorewall

|
|
OUTPUT).</li>
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped, Shorewall will allow:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) All traffic originating from the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself; and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) All traffic that is part of or related to an
|
|
|
|
|
|
already-existing connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall stop" entered through an ssh session will not kill
|
|
|
|
|
|
the session.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note though that even with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is still possible for people to shoot themselves in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
foot.<br>

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Given the wide range of VPN software, I can never hope to
|
|
|
|
|
|
add specific support for all of it. I have therefore decided
|
|
|
|
|
|
to add "generic" tunnel support.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic tunnels work pretty much like any of the other
|
|
|
|
|
|
tunnel types. You usually add a zone to represent the systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the other end of the tunnel and you add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules/policies to<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
implement your security policy regarding traffic to/from
|
|
|
|
|
|
those systems.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the /etc/shorewall/tunnels file, you can have entries of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the form:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
generic:<protocol>[:<port>]
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> <ip address>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway zones><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<protocol> is the
|
|
|
|
|
|
protocol used by the tunnel<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<port> if
|
|
|
|
|
|
the protocol is 'udp' or 'tcp' then this is the destination
|
|
|
|
|
|
port number used by the tunnel.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the zone of the remote tunnel gateway<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ip address> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the IP address of the remote tunnel gateway.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone> Optional. A comma-separated list of zone
|
|
|
|
|
|
names. If specified, the remote gateway is to be considered
|
|
|
|
|
|
part of these zones.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'arp_filter' option has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces file. This option causes
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/arp_filter to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
set with the result that this interface will only answer ARP
|
|
|
|
|
|
'who-has' requests from hosts that are routed out through
|
|
|
|
|
|
that interface. Setting this option facilitates testing of
|
|
|
|
|
|
your firewall where multiple firewall interfaces are
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected to the same HUB/Switch (all interfaces connected to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the single HUB/Switch should have this option specified).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that using such a configuration in a production
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment is strongly recommended against.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The ADDRESS column in /etc/shorewall/masq may now include
|
|
|
|
|
|
a comma-separated list of addresses and/or address ranges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netfilter will use all listed addresses/ranges in round-robin
|
|
|
|
|
|
fashion. \</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An /etc/shorewall/accounting file has been added to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
for traffic accounting. See the <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Accounting.html">accounting documentation</a> for a
|
|
|
|
|
|
description of this facility.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Bridge interfaces (br[0-9]) may now be used in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/maclist.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] and LOG rules defined in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules may now be rate-limited. For DNAT and
|
|
|
|
|
|
REDIRECT rules, rate limiting occurs in the nat table DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule; the corresponding ACCEPT rule in the filter table is
|
|
|
|
|
|
not rate limited. If you want to limit the filter table rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
you will need o create two rules; a DNAT- rule and an ACCEPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule which can be rate-limited separately.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Warning:</span> When rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
limiting is specified on a rule with "all" in the SOURCE or
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST fields, the limit will apply to each pair of zones
|
|
|
|
|
|
individually rather than as a single limit for all pairs of
|
|
|
|
|
|
covered by the rule.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To specify a rate limit,<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) Follow ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] or LOG with<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>] ><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate> is the sustained
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate per <interval><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<interval> is "sec" or
|
|
|
|
|
|
"min"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<burst> is the largest
|
|
|
|
|
|
burst accepted within an <interval>. If not given, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default of 5 is assumed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
There may be no white space between the ACTION and "<"
|
|
|
|
|
|
nor there may be any white space within the burst
|
|
|
|
|
|
specification. If you want to specify logging of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate-limited rule, the ":" and log level comes after the
|
|
|
|
|
|
">" (e.g., ACCEPT<2/sec:4>:info ).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) A new RATE LIMIT column has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules file. You may specify the rate limit
|
|
|
|
|
|
there in the format:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>]<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's take an example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT<2/sec:4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 80<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first time this rule is reached, the packet will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
accepted; in fact, since the burst is 4, the first four
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets will be accepted. After this, it will be 500ms (1
|
|
|
|
|
|
second divided by the rate<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 2) before a packet will be accepted from this rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of how many packets reach it. Also, every 500ms
|
|
|
|
|
|
which passes without matching a packet, one of the bursts
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be regained; if no packets hit the rule for 2 second,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the burst will be fully recharged; back where we started.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Multiple chains may now be displayed in one "shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
show" command (e.g., shorewall show INPUT FORWARD
|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Output rules (those with $FW as the SOURCE) may now be
|
|
|
|
|
|
limited to a set of local users and/or groups. See <a href=

|
|
|
<li>Corrected problem in 1.4.6 where the MANGLE_ENABLED
|
|
|
|
|
|
variable was being tested before it was set.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Corrected handling of MAC addresses in the SOURCE column
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the tcrules file. Previously, these addresses resulted in
|
|
|
|
|
|
an invalid iptables command.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The "shorewall stop" command is now disabled when
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/startup_disabled exists. This prevents people
|
|
|
|
|
|
from shooting themselves in the foot prior to having
|
|
|
|
|
|
configured Shorewall.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A change introduced in version 1.4.6 caused error
|
|
|
|
|
|
messages during "shorewall [re]start" when ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes
|
|
|
|

|
and ip addresses were being added to a PPP interface; the

In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall stop" entered through an ssh session will not kill
|
|
|
|
|
|
the session.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note though that even with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is still possible for people to shoot themselves in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
foot.<br>

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Given the wide range of VPN software, I can never hope to
|
|
|
|
|
|
add specific support for all of it. I have therefore decided
|
|
|
|
|
|
to add "generic" tunnel support.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic tunnels work pretty much like any of the other
|
|
|
|
|
|
tunnel types. You usually add a zone to represent the systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the other end of the tunnel and you add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules/policies to<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
implement your security policy regarding traffic to/from
|
|
|
|
|
|
those systems.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the /etc/shorewall/tunnels file, you can have entries of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the form:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
generic:<protocol>[:<port>]
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> <ip address>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway zones><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<protocol> is the
|
|
|
|
|
|
protocol used by the tunnel<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<port> if
|
|
|
|
|
|
the protocol is 'udp' or 'tcp' then this is the destination
|
|
|
|
|
|
port number used by the tunnel.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the zone of the remote tunnel gateway<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ip address> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the IP address of the remote tunnel gateway.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone> Optional. A comma-separated list of zone
|
|
|
|
|
|
names. If specified, the remote gateway is to be considered
|
|
|
|
|
|
part of these zones.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'arp_filter' option has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces file. This option causes
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/arp_filter to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
set with the result that this interface will only answer ARP
|
|
|
|
|
|
'who-has' requests from hosts that are routed out through
|
|
|
|
|
|
that interface. Setting this option facilitates testing of
|
|
|
|
|
|
your firewall where multiple firewall interfaces are
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected to the same HUB/Switch (all interfaces connected to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the single HUB/Switch should have this option specified).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that using such a configuration in a production
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment is strongly recommended against.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The ADDRESS column in /etc/shorewall/masq may now include
|
|
|
|
|
|
a comma-separated list of addresses and/or address ranges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netfilter will use all listed addresses/ranges in round-robin
|
|
|
|
|
|
fashion. \</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An /etc/shorewall/accounting file has been added to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
for traffic accounting. See the <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Accounting.html">accounting documentation</a> for a
|
|
|
|
|
|
description of this facility.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Bridge interfaces (br[0-9]) may now be used in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/maclist.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] and LOG rules defined in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules may now be rate-limited. For DNAT and
|
|
|
|
|
|
REDIRECT rules, rate limiting occurs in the nat table DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule; the corresponding ACCEPT rule in the filter table is
|
|
|
|
|
|
not rate limited. If you want to limit the filter table rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
you will need o create two rules; a DNAT- rule and an ACCEPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule which can be rate-limited separately.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Warning:</span> When rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
limiting is specified on a rule with "all" in the SOURCE or
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST fields, the limit will apply to each pair of zones
|
|
|
|
|
|
individually rather than as a single limit for all pairs of
|
|
|
|
|
|
covered by the rule.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To specify a rate limit,<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) Follow ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] or LOG with<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>] ><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate> is the sustained
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate per <interval><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<interval> is "sec" or
|
|
|
|
|
|
"min"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<burst> is the largest
|
|
|
|
|
|
burst accepted within an <interval>. If not given, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default of 5 is assumed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
There may be no white space between the ACTION and "<"
|
|
|
|
|
|
nor there may be any white space within the burst
|
|
|
|
|
|
specification. If you want to specify logging of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate-limited rule, the ":" and log level comes after the
|
|
|
|
|
|
">" (e.g., ACCEPT<2/sec:4>:info ).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) A new RATE LIMIT column has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules file. You may specify the rate limit
|
|
|
|
|
|
there in the format:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>]<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's take an example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT<2/sec:4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 80<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first time this rule is reached, the packet will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
accepted; in fact, since the burst is 4, the first four
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets will be accepted. After this, it will be 500ms (1
|
|
|
|
|
|
second divided by the rate<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 2) before a packet will be accepted from this rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of how many packets reach it. Also, every 500ms
|
|
|
|
|
|
which passes without matching a packet, one of the bursts
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be regained; if no packets hit the rule for 2 second,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the burst will be fully recharged; back where we started.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Multiple chains may now be displayed in one "shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
show" command (e.g., shorewall show INPUT FORWARD
|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Output rules (those with $FW as the SOURCE) may now be
|
|
|
|
|
|
limited to a set of local users and/or groups. See <a href=

variable was being tested before it was set.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Corrected handling of MAC addresses in the SOURCE column
|
|
|
|
|

of the tcrules file. Previously, these addresses resulted in
|
|
|
|
|
|
an invalid iptables command.</li>
|

|
|
|
|
|
<li>The "shorewall stop" command is now disabled when
|

/etc/shorewall/startup_disabled exists. This prevents people
|
|
|
|
|
|
from shooting themselves in the foot prior to having

configured Shorewall.</li>
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A change introduced in version 1.4.6 caused error

<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now creates a dynamic blacklisting chain for
|
|
|
|
|
|
each interface defined in /etc/shorewall/interfaces. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
'drop' and 'reject' commands use the routing table to
|
|
|
|
|
|
determine which of these chains is to be used for
|
|
|
|
|
|
blacklisting the specified IP address(es).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Two new commands ('dropall' and 'rejectall') have been
|
|
|
|
|
|
introduced that do what 'drop' and 'reject' used to do;
|
|
|
|
|
|
namely, when an address is blacklisted using these new
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands, it will be blacklisted on all of your firewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
interfaces.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Thanks to Steve Herber, the 'help' command can now give
|
|
|
|
|
|
command-specific help (e.g., shorewall help
|
|
|
|
|
|
<command>).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new option "ADMINISABSENTMINDED" has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. This option has a default
|
|
|
|
|
|
value of "No" for existing users which causes Shorewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
'stopped' state to continue as it has been; namely, in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the stopped state only traffic to/from hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped is accepted.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
With ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes (the default for new installs),
|
|
|
|
|
|
in addition to traffic to/from the hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped, Shorewall will allow:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) All traffic originating from the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself; and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) All traffic that is part of or related to an
|
|
|
|
|
|
already-existing connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall stop" entered through an ssh session will not kill
|
|
|
|
|
|
the session.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note though that even with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, it

is still possible for people to shoot themselves in the

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Given the wide range of VPN software, I can never hope to
|
|
|
|
|
|
add specific support for all of it. I have therefore decided
|
|
|
|
|
|
to add "generic" tunnel support.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic tunnels work pretty much like any of the other
|
|
|
|
|
|
tunnel types. You usually add a zone to represent the systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the other end of the tunnel and you add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules/policies to<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
implement your security policy regarding traffic to/from
|
|
|
|
|
|
those systems.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the /etc/shorewall/tunnels file, you can have entries of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the form:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
generic:<protocol>[:<port>]
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> <ip address>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway zones><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<protocol> is the
|
|
|
|
|
|
protocol used by the tunnel<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<port> if
|
|
|
|
|
|
the protocol is 'udp' or 'tcp' then this is the destination
|
|
|
|
|
|
port number used by the tunnel.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<zone> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the zone of the remote tunnel gateway<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ip address> is
|
|
|
|
|
|
the IP address of the remote tunnel gateway.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<gateway
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone> Optional. A comma-separated list of zone
|
|
|
|
|
|
names. If specified, the remote gateway is to be considered
|
|
|
|
|
|
part of these zones.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'arp_filter' option has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces file. This option causes
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/arp_filter to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
set with the result that this interface will only answer ARP
|
|
|
|
|
|
'who-has' requests from hosts that are routed out through
|
|
|
|
|
|
that interface. Setting this option facilitates testing of
|
|
|
|
|
|
your firewall where multiple firewall interfaces are
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected to the same HUB/Switch (all interfaces connected to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the single HUB/Switch should have this option specified).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that using such a configuration in a production
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment is strongly recommended against.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The ADDRESS column in /etc/shorewall/masq may now include
|
|
|
|
|
|
a comma-separated list of addresses and/or address ranges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netfilter will use all listed addresses/ranges in round-robin
|
|
|
|
|
|
fashion. \</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An /etc/shorewall/accounting file has been added to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
for traffic accounting. See the <a href=
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Accounting.html">accounting documentation</a> for a
|
|
|
|
|
|
description of this facility.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Bridge interfaces (br[0-9]) may now be used in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/maclist.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] and LOG rules defined in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules may now be rate-limited. For DNAT and
|
|
|
|
|
|
REDIRECT rules, rate limiting occurs in the nat table DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule; the corresponding ACCEPT rule in the filter table is
|
|
|
|
|
|
not rate limited. If you want to limit the filter table rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
you will need o create two rules; a DNAT- rule and an ACCEPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule which can be rate-limited separately.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Warning:</span> When rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
limiting is specified on a rule with "all" in the SOURCE or
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST fields, the limit will apply to each pair of zones
|
|
|
|
|
|
individually rather than as a single limit for all pairs of
|
|
|
|
|
|
covered by the rule.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To specify a rate limit,<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) Follow ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] or LOG with<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>] ><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
where<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate> is the sustained
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate per <interval><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<interval> is "sec" or
|
|
|
|
|
|
"min"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<burst> is the largest
|
|
|
|
|
|
burst accepted within an <interval>. If not given, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default of 5 is assumed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
There may be no white space between the ACTION and "<"
|
|
|
|
|
|
nor there may be any white space within the burst
|
|
|
|
|
|
specification. If you want to specify logging of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate-limited rule, the ":" and log level comes after the
|
|
|
|
|
|
">" (e.g., ACCEPT<2/sec:4>:info ).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) A new RATE LIMIT column has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules file. You may specify the rate limit
|
|
|
|
|
|
there in the format:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<rate>/<interval>[:<burst>]<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's take an example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT<2/sec:4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 80<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first time this rule is reached, the packet will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
accepted; in fact, since the burst is 4, the first four
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets will be accepted. After this, it will be 500ms (1
|
|
|
|
|
|
second divided by the rate<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 2) before a packet will be accepted from this rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of how many packets reach it. Also, every 500ms
|
|
|
|
|
|
which passes without matching a packet, one of the bursts
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be regained; if no packets hit the rule for 2 second,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the burst will be fully recharged; back where we started.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Multiple chains may now be displayed in one "shorewall
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
OUTPUT).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Output rules (those with $FW as the SOURCE) may now be
|
|
|

|
limited to a set of local users and/or groups. See <a href=

an invalid iptables command.</li>

2005-09-23 02:56:29 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now creates a dynamic blacklisting chain for
|
|
|
|
|
|
each interface defined in /etc/shorewall/interfaces. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
'drop' and 'reject' commands use the routing table to
|
|
|
|
|
|
determine which of these chains is to be used for
|
|
|
|
|
|
blacklisting the specified IP address(es).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Two new commands ('dropall' and 'rejectall') have been
|
|
|
|
|
|
introduced that do what 'drop' and 'reject' used to do;
|
|
|
|
|
|
namely, when an address is blacklisted using these new
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands, it will be blacklisted on all of your firewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
interfaces.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Thanks to Steve Herber, the 'help' command can now give
|
|
|
|
|
|
command-specific help (e.g., shorewall help
|
|
|
|
|
|
<command>).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new option "ADMINISABSENTMINDED" has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. This option has a default
|
|
|
|
|
|
value of "No" for existing users which causes Shorewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
'stopped' state to continue as it has been; namely, in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the stopped state only traffic to/from hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped is accepted.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
With ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes (the default for new installs),
|
|
|
|
|
|
in addition to traffic to/from the hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped, Shorewall will allow:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) All traffic originating from the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself; and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) All traffic that is part of or related to an
|
|
|
|
|
|
already-existing connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall stop" entered through an ssh session will not kill
|
|
|
|
|
|
the session.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note though that even with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is still possible for people to shoot themselves in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
foot.<br>

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Given the wide range of VPN software, I can never hope to
|
|
|
|
|
|
add specific support for all of it. I have therefore decided
|
|
|
|
|
|
to add "generic" tunnel support.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic tunnels work pretty much like any of the other
|
|
|
|
|
|
tunnel types. You usually add a zone to represent the systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the other end of the tunnel and you add the appropriate
|
|
|
|

part of these zones.</li>
|

|
|
|
|
<li>An 'arp_filter' option has been added to the
|

|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces file. This option causes
|
|
|
|
|
|
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/arp_filter to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
set with the result that this interface will only answer ARP
|
|
|
|
|
|
'who-has' requests from hosts that are routed out through
|
|
|
|
|
|
that interface. Setting this option facilitates testing of
|
|
|
|
|
|
your firewall where multiple firewall interfaces are
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected to the same HUB/Switch (all interfaces connected to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the single HUB/Switch should have this option specified).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that using such a configuration in a production
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment is strongly recommended against.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The ADDRESS column in /etc/shorewall/masq may now include
|
|
|
|
|
|
a comma-separated list of addresses and/or address ranges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netfilter will use all listed addresses/ranges in round-robin
|
|
|
|
|
|
fashion. \</li>
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

<li>An /etc/shorewall/accounting file has been added to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
for traffic accounting. See the <a href=

/etc/shorewall/maclist.</li>
|

|
<li>ACCEPT, DNAT[-], REDIRECT[-] and LOG rules defined in
|
|
|

|
/etc/shorewall/rules may now be rate-limited. For DNAT and
|
|
|
|
|
|
REDIRECT rules, rate limiting occurs in the nat table DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule; the corresponding ACCEPT rule in the filter table is
|
|
|
|
|
|
not rate limited. If you want to limit the filter table rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
you will need o create two rules; a DNAT- rule and an ACCEPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule which can be rate-limited separately.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Warning:</span> When rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
limiting is specified on a rule with "all" in the SOURCE or
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEST fields, the limit will apply to each pair of zones
|
|
|
|
|
|
individually rather than as a single limit for all pairs of
|
|
|
|
|
|
covered by the rule.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>

<rate> is the sustained

|
|
|
|
|
|
<interval> is "sec" or
|
|
|
|
|
|
"min"<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<burst> is the largest
|
|
|
|
|
|
burst accepted within an <interval>. If not given, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default of 5 is assumed.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
There may be no white space between the ACTION and "<"
|
|
|
|
|
|
nor there may be any white space within the burst
|
|
|
|
|
|
specification. If you want to specify logging of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate-limited rule, the ":" and log level comes after the
|
|
|
|
|
|
">" (e.g., ACCEPT<2/sec:4>:info ).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's take an example:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT<2/sec:4>
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz
|
|
|
|
|
|
tcp 80<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first time this rule is reached, the packet will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
accepted; in fact, since the burst is 4, the first four
|
|
|
|
|
|
packets will be accepted. After this, it will be 500ms (1
|
|
|
|
|
|
second divided by the rate<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 2) before a packet will be accepted from this rule,
|
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of how many packets reach it. Also, every 500ms
|
|
|
|
|
|
which passes without matching a packet, one of the bursts
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be regained; if no packets hit the rule for 2 second,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the burst will be fully recharged; back where we started.<br>

variable was being tested before it was set.</li>
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
<li>Corrected handling of MAC addresses in the SOURCE column

|
|
|
an invalid iptables command.</li>

|
|
|
|
|
<li>The "shorewall stop" command is now disabled when

2005-09-23 02:56:29 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall now creates a dynamic blacklisting chain for
|
|
|
|
|
|
each interface defined in /etc/shorewall/interfaces. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
'drop' and 'reject' commands use the routing table to
|
|
|
|
|
|
determine which of these chains is to be used for
|
|
|
|
|
|
blacklisting the specified IP address(es).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Two new commands ('dropall' and 'rejectall') have been
|
|
|
|
|
|
introduced that do what 'drop' and 'reject' used to do;
|
|
|
|
|
|
namely, when an address is blacklisted using these new
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands, it will be blacklisted on all of your firewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
interfaces.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Thanks to Steve Herber, the 'help' command can now give
|
|
|
|
|
|
command-specific help (e.g., shorewall help
|
|
|
|
|
|
<command>).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new option "ADMINISABSENTMINDED" has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. This option has a default
|
|
|
|
|
|
value of "No" for existing users which causes Shorewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
'stopped' state to continue as it has been; namely, in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the stopped state only traffic to/from hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped is accepted.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
With ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes (the default for new installs),
|
|
|
|
|
|
in addition to traffic to/from the hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped, Shorewall will allow:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) All traffic originating from the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself; and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) All traffic that is part of or related to an
|
|
|
|
|
|
already-existing connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall stop" entered through an ssh session will not kill
|
|
|
|
|
|
the session.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note though that even with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is still possible for people to shoot themselves in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
foot.<br>

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Given the wide range of VPN software, I can never hope to
|
|
|
|
|
|
add specific support for all of it. I have therefore decided
|
|
|
|
|
|
to add "generic" tunnel support.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Generic tunnels work pretty much like any of the other
|
|
|
|
|
|
tunnel types. You usually add a zone to represent the systems
|
|
|
|
|
|
at the other end of the tunnel and you add the appropriate
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules/policies to<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
implement your security policy regarding traffic to/from
|
|
|
|
|
|
those systems.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|

In the /etc/shorewall/tunnels file, you can have entries of

|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'arp_filter' option has been added to the

/etc/shorewall/interfaces file. This option causes

/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<interface>/arp_filter to be

set with the result that this interface will only answer ARP
|
|
|
|

'who-has' requests from hosts that are routed out through

<li>Shorewall now creates a dynamic blacklisting chain for
|
|
|
|
|
|
each interface defined in /etc/shorewall/interfaces. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
'drop' and 'reject' commands use the routing table to
|
|
|
|
|
|
determine which of these chains is to be used for
|
|
|
|
|
|
blacklisting the specified IP address(es).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Two new commands ('dropall' and 'rejectall') have been
|
|
|
|
|
|
introduced that do what 'drop' and 'reject' used to do;
|
|
|
|
|
|
namely, when an address is blacklisted using these new
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands, it will be blacklisted on all of your firewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
interfaces.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Thanks to Steve Herber, the 'help' command can now give
|
|
|
|
|
|
command-specific help (e.g., shorewall help
|
|
|
|
|
|
<command>).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new option "ADMINISABSENTMINDED" has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf. This option has a default
|
|
|
|
|
|
value of "No" for existing users which causes Shorewall's
|
|
|
|
|
|
'stopped' state to continue as it has been; namely, in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the stopped state only traffic to/from hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped is accepted.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
With ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes (the default for new installs),
|
|
|
|
|
|
in addition to traffic to/from the hosts listed in
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/routestopped, Shorewall will allow:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) All traffic originating from the firewall
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself; and<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) All traffic that is part of or related to an
|
|
|
|
|
|
already-existing connection.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"shorewall stop" entered through an ssh session will not kill
|
|
|
|
|
|
the session.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note though that even with ADMINISABSENTMINDED=Yes, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is still possible for people to shoot themselves in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
foot.<br>

From a remote system, I ssh to 206.124.146.178 which
|
|
|
|
|
|
establishes an SSH connection with local system 192.168.1.5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I then create a second SSH connection from that computer to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the firewall and confidently type "shorewall stop". As part
|
|
|
|
|
|
of its stop processing, Shorewall removes eth0:0 which kills
|
|
|
|
|
|
my SSH connection to 192.168.1.5!!!</li>

Shorewall is changed in the following ways:</li>

|
<li>To handle 'norfc1918' filtering, Shorewall will not

create chains in the mangle table but will rather do all
|
|
|
|
|
|
'norfc1918' filtering in the filter table (rfc1918

|
|

chain).</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

<li>Recall that Shorewall DNAT rules generate two
|
|
|
|
|
|
netfilter rules; one in the nat table and one in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
filter table. If the Connection Tracking Match Extension
|
|
|
|
|
|
is available, the rule in the filter table is extended to
|
|
|
|
|
|
check that the original destination address was the same
|
|
|
|
|
|
as specified (or defaulted to) in the DNAT rule.<br>

Warning:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your shell only supports 32-bit signed arithmatic (ash or
|
|
|
|
|
|
dash), then the ipcalc command produces incorrect information
|
|
|
|
|
|
for IP addresses 128.0.0.0-1 and for /1 networks. Bash should
|
|
|
|
|
|
produce correct information for all valid IP addresses.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'iprange' command has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/sbin/shorewall.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
iprange
|
|
|
|
|
|
<address>-<address><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command decomposes a range of IP addressses into a list
|
|
|
|
|
|
of network and host addresses. The command can be useful if
|
|
|
|
|
|
you need to construct an efficient set of rules that accept
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections from a range of network addresses.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: If your shell only supports 32-bit signed arithmetic
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ash or dash) then the range may not span 128.0.0.0.<br>

This means that the policy for connections from the dmz to

netfilter rules; one in the nat table and one in the

|
filter table. If the Connection Tracking Match Extension
|
|
|
|
|
|
is available, the rule in the filter table is extended to
|
|
|

check that the original destination address was the same

as specified (or defaulted to) in the DNAT rule.<br>

Warning:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your shell only supports 32-bit signed arithmatic (ash or
|
|
|
|
|
|
dash), then the ipcalc command produces incorrect information
|
|
|
|
|
|
for IP addresses 128.0.0.0-1 and for /1 networks. Bash should
|
|
|
|
|
|
produce correct information for all valid IP addresses.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'iprange' command has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/sbin/shorewall.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|

|
iprange
|
|
|
|
|
|
<address>-<address><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command decomposes a range of IP addressses into a list
|
|
|
|
|
|
of network and host addresses. The command can be useful if
|
|
|
|
|
|
you need to construct an efficient set of rules that accept
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections from a range of network addresses.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: If your shell only supports 32-bit signed arithmetic
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ash or dash) then the range may not span 128.0.0.0.<br>

Warning:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your shell only supports 32-bit signed arithmatic (ash or
|
|
|
|
|
|
dash), then the ipcalc command produces incorrect information
|
|
|
|
|
|
for IP addresses 128.0.0.0-1 and for /1 networks. Bash should
|
|
|
|
|
|
produce correct information for all valid IP addresses.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>An 'iprange' command has been added to
|
|
|
|
|
|
/sbin/shorewall.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
iprange
|
|
|
|
|
|
<address>-<address><br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command decomposes a range of IP addressses into a list
|
|
|
|
|
|
of network and host addresses. The command can be useful if
|
|
|
|
|
|
you need to construct an efficient set of rules that accept
|
|
|
|
|
|
connections from a range of network addresses.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: If your shell only supports 32-bit signed arithmetic
|
|
|
|
|
|
(ash or dash) then the range may not span 128.0.0.0.<br>

|
|

<li>DNAT[-] rules may now be used to load balance

|
|
|
|
(round-robin) over a set of servers. Up to 256 servers may be
|
|
|
|
|

specified in a range of addresses given as <first

address>-<last address>.<br>
|
|

Example:<br>
|

Note that this capability has previously been available
|
|
|
|
|
|
using a combination of a DNAT- rule and one or more ACCEPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules. That technique is still preferable for load-balancing
|
|
|
|
|
|
over a large number of servers (> 16) since specifying a
|
|
|
|
|
|
range in the DNAT rule causes one filter table ACCEPT rule to
|

|
be generated for each IP address in the range.<br>

<p>Groan -- This version corrects a problem whereby the

commonly reported symptom was that Shorewall messages were

being written to the console even though console logging was

correctly configured per FAQ 16.<br>

The Fireparse --log-prefix fiasco continues. Tuomo Soini has
|
|
|
|
|
|
pointed out that the code in 1.4.4 restricts the length of
|
|
|
|
|
|
short zone names to 4 characters. I've produced version 1.4.4a
|
|
|
|
|
|
that restores the previous 5-character limit by conditionally
|
|
|
|
|
|
omitting the log rule number when the LOGFORMAT doesn't contain
|
|
|
|
|
|
'%d'. <br>

been changed to a 'printf' formatting template which accepts

|
three arguments (the chain name, logging rule number and the

|
find log messages in the 'show log', 'status' and 'hits'
|

|
|
|

should not begin with "%") and the leading part should be

'routeback' can't be used as an option for a multi-zone

|
<p>This release follows up on 1.4.0. It corrects a problem
|
|
|
|
|
|
introduced in 1.4.0 and removes additional warts.<br>

|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>When Shorewall 1.4.0 is run under the ash shell (such as
|
|
|
|
|
|
on Bering/LEAF), it can attempt to add ECN disabling rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
even if the /etc/shorewall/ecn file is empty. That problem
|
|
|
|
|
|
has been corrected so that ECN disabling rules are only added
|
|
|
|
|
|
if there are entries in /etc/shorewall/ecn.</li>

<p><b>3/17/2003 - Shorewall 1.4.0</b></p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall 1.4 represents the next step in the evolution of
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shorewall. The main thrust of the initial release is simply to
|
|
|
|
|
|
remove the cruft that has accumulated in Shorewall over time.

as it has always been (see

When OLD_PING_HANDLING=No, icmp echo (ping) is handled via

The FORWARDPING=Yes option in shorewall.conf and the 'noping'

"label" such as "eth0:0" for IP addresses that it

|
|
creates under ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes and ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes.

<li>In /etc/shorewall/tcrules, the MARK value may be

|
|
|

that the marking will occur in the FORWARD or PREROUTING
|
|

the setting of the MARK_IN_FORWARD_CHAIN option in <a href=

|
|
a) The subnets associated with other

|
|

addresses on the interface.<br>
|

Beginning with Shorewall 1.3.14, if you enter an interface
|
|
|
|
|
|
name in the SUBNET column, shorewall will use the
|
|
|
|
|
|
firewall's routing table to construct the masquerading/SNAT

rules.<br>

When upgrading to Shorewall 1.3.14, if you have multiple
|
|
|
|
|
|
local subnets connected to an interface that is specified
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the SUBNET column of an /etc/shorewall/masq entry, your
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/masq file will need changing. In most cases,
|
|
|
|
|
|
you will simply be able to remove redundant entries. In
|
|
|
|
|
|
some cases though, you might want to change from using the
|
|
|
|
|
|
interface name to listing specific subnetworks if the
|
|
|
|
|
|
change described above will cause masquerading to occur on
|
|
|
|
|
|
subnetworks that you don't wish to masquerade.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|

<li>An OLD_PING_HANDLING option has been added to

shorewall.conf. When set to Yes, Shorewall ping handling is
|
|
|
|
|
|
as it has always been (see
|
|
|
|
|
|
http://www.shorewall.net/ping.html).<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
When OLD_PING_HANDLING=No, icmp echo (ping) is handled via
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules and policies just like any other connection request.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The FORWARDPING=Yes option in shorewall.conf and the 'noping'
|
|
|
|
|
|
and 'filterping' options in /etc/shorewall/interfaces will
|
|
|
|
|
|
all generate an error.<br>

<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>It is now possible to direct Shorewall to create a
|
|
|
|
|
|
"label" such as "eth0:0" for IP addresses that it
|
|
|
|
|
|
creates under ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes and ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is done by specifying the label instead of just the
|
|
|
|
|
|
interface name:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) In the INTERFACE column of
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/masq<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) In the INTERFACE column of
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/nat<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
When an interface name is entered in the SUBNET column of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the /etc/shorewall/masq file, Shorewall previously
|
|
|
|
|
|
masqueraded traffic from only the first subnet defined on
|
|
|
|
|
|
that interface. It did not masquerade traffic from:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) The subnets associated with other
|
|
|
|
|
|
addresses on the interface.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
b) Subnets accessed through local
|
|
|
|
|
|
routers.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Beginning with Shorewall 1.3.14, if you enter an interface
|
|
|
|
|
|
name in the SUBNET column, shorewall will use the
|
|
|
|
|
|
firewall's routing table to construct the masquerading/SNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules.<br>

</b></p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

<p>Just includes a few things that I had on the burner:<br>

|
|
|
<li>A new 'DNAT-' action has been added for entries in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/rules file. DNAT- is intended for advanced
|
|
|
|
|
|
users who wish to minimize the number of rules that
|
|
|
|
|
|
connection requests must traverse.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
A Shorewall DNAT rule actually generates two iptables rules:
|
|
|
|
|
|
a header rewriting rule in the 'nat' table and an ACCEPT rule
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the 'filter' table. A DNAT- rule only generates the first
|
|
|
|
|
|
of these rules. This is handy when you have several DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
rules that would generate the same ACCEPT rule.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here are three rules from my previous rules
|
|
|
|
|
|
file:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp - 206.124.146.178<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
DNAT
|
|
|
|
|
|
net dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp - 206.124.146.179<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT net
|
|
|
|
|
|
dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp www,smtp,ftp,...<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
These three rules ended up generating _three_
|
|
|
|
|
|
copies of<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|

ACCEPT

|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
By writing the rules this way, I end up with
|
|
|
|
|
|
only one copy of the ACCEPT rule.<br>

<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The 'shorewall check' command now prints out the
|
|
|
|
|
|
applicable policy between each pair of zones.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new CLEAR_TC option has been added to shorewall.conf.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If this option is set to 'No' then Shorewall won't clear the
|
|
|
|
|
|
current traffic control rules during [re]start. This setting
|
|
|
|
|
|
is intended for use by people that prefer to configure
|
|
|
|
|
|
traffic shaping when the network interfaces come up rather
|
|
|
|
|
|
than when the firewall is started. If that is what you want
|
|
|
|
|
|
to do, set TC_ENABLED=Yes and CLEAR_TC=No and do not supply
|
|
|
|
|
|
an /etc/shorewall/tcstart file. That way, your traffic
|
|
|
|
|
|
shaping rules can still use the 'fwmark' classifier based on
|
|
|
|
|
|
packet marking defined in /etc/shorewall/tcrules.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>A new SHARED_DIR variable has been added that allows
|
|
|
|
|
|
distribution packagers to easily move the shared directory
|
|
|
|
|
|
(default /usr/lib/shorewall). Users should never have a need
|
|
|
|
|
|
to change the value of this shorewall.conf setting.<br>

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This is a bug-fix roll up which includes Roger Aich's fix
|
|
|
|
|
|
for DNAT with excluded subnets (e.g., "DNAT foo!bar ...").
|
|
|
|
|
|
Current 1.3.11 users who don't need rules of this type need not
|
|
|
|
|
|
upgrade to 1.3.11.</p>

|
|
|
|

This option causes Shorewall to make a set of sanity check on

|
|
TCP packet header flags.</li>
|

|
|

<li>It is now allowed to use 'all' in the SOURCE or DEST
|
|
|
|
|
|
column in a <a href="Documentation.htm#Rules">rule</a>. When
|
|
|
|
|
|
used, 'all' must appear by itself (in may not be qualified)
|
|
|
|
|
|
and it does not enable intra-zone traffic. For example, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
rule<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACCEPT loc all tcp 80<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
does not enable http traffic from 'loc' to 'loc'.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Shorewall's use of the 'echo' command is now compatible
|
|
|
|
|
|
with bash clones such as ash and dash.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>fw->fw policies now generate a startup error.
|
|
|

fw->fw rules generate a warning and are ignored</li>

were required in ipchains firewalls but are not required in

switch to FORWARDPING=Yes.</li>

<li>Empty and invalid source and destination qualifiers are
|

now detected in the rules file. It is a good idea to use the
|
|
|
|
|
|
'shorewall check' command before you issue a 'shorewall

|
<li>Added <b>MERGE_HOSTS</b> variable in <a href=

Specifying the proxyarp option for an interface causes

Shorewall to set

replace the <b>routestopped</b> option in the

new file makes remote firewall administration easier by
|

allowing any IP or subnet to be enabled while Shorewall is

<p><b>6/6/2002 - Why CVS Web access is Password
|
|
|
|
|
|
Protected</b></p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Last weekend, I installed the CVS Web package to provide
|
|
|
|
|
|
brower-based access to the Shorewall CVS repository. Since
|
|
|
|
|
|
then, I have had several instances where my server was almost
|
|
|
|
|
|
unusable due to the high load generated by website copying
|
|
|
|
|
|
tools like HTTrack and WebStripper. These mindless tools:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Ignore robot.txt files.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Recursively copy everything that they find.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li>Should be classified as weapons rather than tools.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>These tools/weapons are particularly damaging when combined
|
|
|
|
|
|
with CVS Web because they doggedly follow every link in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
cgi-generated HTML resulting in 1000s of executions of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
cvsweb.cgi script. Yesterday, I spend several hours
|
|
|
|
|
|
implementing measures to block these tools but unfortunately,
|
|
|
|
|
|
these measures resulted in my server OOM-ing under even
|
|
|
|
|
|
moderate load.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Until I have the time to understand the cause of the OOM (or
|
|
|
|
|
|
until I buy more RAM if that is what is required), CVS Web
|
|
|
|
|
|
access will remain Password Protected.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
shorewall try <i><configuration directory></i>). This
|
|
|
|
|
|
command attempts "shorewall -c <i><configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
being stopped due to an error, a "shorewall start" command is
|
|
|
|
|
|
executed. The 'try' command allows you to create a new <a
|
|
|
|
|
|
href="Documentation.htm#Configs">configuration</a> and
|
|
|
|
|
|
attempt to start it; if there is an error that leaves your
|
|
|
|
|
|
firewall in the stopped state, it will automatically be
|
|
|
|
|
|
restarted using the default configuration (in

|
/etc/shorewall).</li>
