<p>This release follows up on 1.4.0. It corrects a problem introduced in
|
||
1.4.0 and removes additional warts.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
<b>Problems Corrected:</b><br>
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<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>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<b>New Features:</b><br>
|
||
|
||
<blockquote>Note: In the list that follows, the term <i>group </i>refers to
|
||
a particular network or subnetwork (which may be 0.0.0.0/0 or it may be a
|
||
host address) accessed through a particular interface. Examples:<br>
|
||
|
||
<blockquote>eth0:0.0.0.0/0<br>
|
||
eth2:192.168.1.0/24<br>
|
||
eth3:192.0.2.123<br>
|
||
</blockquote>
|
||
You can use the "shorewall check" command to see the groups associated with
|
||
each of your zones.<br>
|
||
</blockquote>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Beginning with Shorewall 1.4.1, if a zone Z comprises more than one
|
||
group<i> </i>then if there is no explicit Z to Z policy and there are no
|
||
rules governing traffic from Z to Z then Shorewall will permit all traffic
|
||
between the groups in the zone.</li>
|
||
<li>Beginning with Shorewall 1.4.1, Shorewall will never create rules to
|
||
handle traffic from a group to itself.</li>
|
||
<li>A NONE policy is introduced in 1.4.1. When a policy of NONE is specified
|
||
from Z1 to Z2:</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>There may be no rules created that govern connections from Z1 to Z2.</li>
|
||
<li>Shorewall will not create any infrastructure to handle traffic from
|
||
Z1 to Z2.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
See the <a href="upgrade_issues.htm">upgrade issues</a> for a discussion
|

of how these changes may affect your configuration.
|
||
<p><b>3/17/2003 - Shorewall 1.4.0</b><b> </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. <br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
<b>IMPORTANT: Shorewall 1.4.0 requires</b> <b>the iproute package
|
||
('ip' utility).</b><br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
Function from 1.3 that has been omitted from this version include:<br>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>The MERGE_HOSTS variable in shorewall.conf is no longer
|
||
supported. Shorewall 1.4 behavior is the same as 1.3 with MERGE_HOSTS=Yes.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Interface names of the form <device>:<integer>
|
||
in /etc/shorewall/interfaces now generate an error.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Shorewall 1.4 implements behavior consistent with OLD_PING_HANDLING=No.
|
||
OLD_PING_HANDLING=Yes will generate an error at startup as will specification
|
||
of the 'noping' or 'filterping' interface options.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>The 'routestopped' option in the /etc/shorewall/interfaces
|
||
and /etc/shorewall/hosts files is no longer supported and will generate
|
||
an error at startup if specified.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>The Shorewall 1.2 syntax for DNAT and REDIRECT rules is no
|
||
longer accepted.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>The ALLOWRELATED variable in shorewall.conf is no longer supported.
|
||
Shorewall 1.4 behavior is the same as 1.3 with ALLOWRELATED=Yes.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>The icmp.def file has been removed.<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
|
||
</ol>
|
||
Changes for 1.4 include:<br>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>The /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf file has been completely
|
||
reorganized into logical sections.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>LOG is now a valid action for a rule (/etc/shorewall/rules).<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>The firewall script and version file are now installed in
|
||
/usr/share/shorewall.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Late arriving DNS replies are now silently dropped in the
|
||
common chain by default.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>In addition to behaving like OLD_PING_HANDLING=No, Shorewall
|
||
1.4 no longer unconditionally accepts outbound ICMP packets. So if you
|
||
want to 'ping' from the firewall, you will need the appropriate rule or
|
||
policy.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>CONTINUE is now a valid action for a rule (/etc/shorewall/rules).<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>802.11b devices with names of the form wlan<n> now support
|
||
the 'maclist' option.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN - RFC 3168) may now be turned
|
||
off on a host or network basis using the new /etc/shorewall/ecn file. To
|
||
use this facility:<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
<20><> a) You must be running kernel 2.4.20<br>
|
||
<20><> b) You must have applied the patch in<br>
|
||
<20><> http://www.shorewall/net/pub/shorewall/ecn/patch.<br>
|
||
<20><> c) You must have iptables 1.2.7a installed.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>The /etc/shorewall/params file is now processed first so that variables
|
||
may be used in the /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf file.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li value="10">Shorewall now gives a more helpful diagnostic when the
|
||
'ipchains' compatibility kernel module is loaded and a 'shorewall start'
|
||
command is issued.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>The SHARED_DIR variable has been removed from shorewall.conf. This
|
||
variable was for use by package maintainers and was not documented for
|
||
general use.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Shorewall now ignores 'default' routes when detecting masq'd networks.</li>

<p><b>3/10/2003 - Shoreall 1.3.14a</b></p>
|

<p>A roleup of the following bug fixes and other updates:</p>
|

<ul>
|

<li>There is an updated rfc1918 file that reflects the resent allocation
|

of 222.0.0.0/8 and 223.0.0.0/8.</li>
|
||
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>The documentation for the routestopped file claimed that a comma-separated
|
||
list could appear in the second column while the code only supported a
|
||
single host or network address.</li>
|
||
<li>Log messages produced by 'logunclean' and 'dropunclean' were not
|
||
rate-limited.</li>
|
||
<li>802.11b devices with names of the form <i>wlan</i><n> don't
|
||
support the 'maclist' interface option.</li>
|
||
<li>Log messages generated by RFC 1918 filtering are not rate limited.</li>
|
||
<li>The firewall fails to start in the case where you have "eth0 eth1"
|
||
in /etc/shorewall/masq and the default route is through eth1</li>
|

</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>2/8/2003 - Shoreawall 1.3.14</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>New features include</p>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<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<61> "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>
|
||
<20><br>
|
||
<20><> a) In the INTERFACE column of /etc/shorewall/masq<br>
|
||
<20><> b) In the INTERFACE column of /etc/shorewall/nat<br>
|
||
<20></li>
|
||
<li>Support for OpenVPN Tunnels.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Support for VLAN devices with names of the form $DEV.$VID
|
||
(e.g., eth0.0)<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>In /etc/shorewall/tcrules, the MARK value may be optionally
|
||
followed by ":" and either 'F' or 'P' to designate that the marking
|
||
will occur in the FORWARD or PREROUTING chains respectively. If this
|
||
additional specification is omitted, the chain used to mark packets
|
||
will be determined by the setting of the MARK_IN_FORWARD_CHAIN option
|
||
in <a href="Documentation.htm#Conf">shorewall.conf</a>.<br>
|
||
<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>
|
||
<20><br>
|
||
<20><> a) The subnets associated with other addresses on the
|
||
interface.<br>
|
||
<20><> b) Subnets accessed through local routers.<br>
|
||
<20><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>
|
||
<20><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>

</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The Beta includes the following changes:<br>
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<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<61> "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>
|
||
<20><br>
|
||
<20><> a) In the INTERFACE column of /etc/shorewall/masq<br>
|
||
<20><> b) In the INTERFACE column of /etc/shorewall/nat<br>
|
||
<20></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>
|
||
<20><br>
|
||
<20><> a) The subnets associated with other addresses on the
|
||
interface.<br>
|
||
<20><> b) Subnets accessed through local routers.<br>
|
||
<20><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>
|
||
<20><br>
|
||
Example 1 -- This is how it works in 1.3.14.<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>

<p><b>1/13/2003 - Shorewall 1.3.13<br>
|
||
</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Just includes a few things that I had on the burner:<br>
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<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>
|
||
<20><> Here are three rules from my previous rules file:<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
<20><><EFBFBD><EFBFBD><EFBFBD><EFBFBD><EFBFBD> DNAT<41><54> net<65> dmz:206.124.146.177 tcp smtp -

<br>

<20><> These three rules ended up generating _three_ copies

|
||
<br>
|
||
<20><> By writing the rules this way, I end up with only
|
||
one copy of the ACCEPT rule.<br>

||
<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>
|
||
<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>

|
||
<li>"shorewall refresh" now reloads the traffic

shaping rules (tcrules and tcstart).</li>
|

<li>"shorewall debug [re]start" now turns off

of it.</li>
|
||
<li>"shorewall [re]start" has been speeded up
|

by more than 40% with my configuration. Your milage may vary.</li>
|
||
<li>A "shorewall show classifiers" command has
|
||
been added which shows the current packet classification filters.
|
||
The output from this command is also added as a separate page
|
||
in "shorewall monitor"</li>
|
||
<li>ULOG (must be all caps) is now accepted as
|
||
a valid syslog level and causes the subject packets to be logged
|
||
using the ULOG target rather than the LOG target. This allows you
|
||
to run ulogd (available from <a
|
||
href="http://www.gnumonks.org/projects/ulogd">http://www.gnumonks.org/projects/ulogd</a>)
|
||
and log all Shorewall messages <a

|
||
<li>If you are running a kernel that has a FORWARD
|

chain in the mangle table ("shorewall show mangle" will show
|
||
you the chains in the mangle table), you can set MARK_IN_FORWARD_CHAIN=Yes
|
||
in <a href="Documentation.htm#Conf">shorewall.conf</a>. This allows
|
||
for marking input packets based on their destination even when
|
||
you are using Masquerading or SNAT.</li>
|
||
<li>I have cluttered up the /etc/shorewall directory
|
||
with empty 'init', 'start', 'stop' and 'stopped' files. If you
|
||
already have a file with one of these names, don't worry -- the
|
||
upgrade process won't overwrite your file.</li>
|
||
<li>I have added a new RFC1918_LOG_LEVEL variable
|
||
to <a href="Documentation.htm#Conf">shorewall.conf</a>. This variable
|
||
specifies the syslog level at which packets are logged as a result
|
||
of entries in the /etc/shorewall/rfc1918 file. Previously, these

packets were always logged at the 'info' level.<br>

<p><b>12/7/2002 - Shorewall Support for Mandrake 9.0</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Two months and 3 days after I ordered Mandrake 9.0, it was finally delivered.
|

I have installed 9.0 on one of my systems and I am now in

a position to support Shorewall users who run Mandrake 9.0.</p>

<p><b>12/3/2002 - Shorewall 1.3.11a</b></p>
|
||
|
||
<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>

<ul>
|
||
<li>A 'tcpflags' option has been added
|
||
to entries in <a href="Documentation.htm#Interfaces">/etc/shorewall/interfaces</a>.
|
||
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>
|
||
<20> <20> 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>

||
option has been added to <a

|
||
the effect of adding an ACCEPT rule for ICMP echo-request
|
||
in <a href="shorewall_extension_scripts.htm">/etc/shorewall/icmpdef</a>.
|
||
Users who have such a rule in icmpdef are encouraged
|

to switch to FORWARDPING=Yes.</li>
|
||
<li>The loopback

||
CLASS A Network (127.0.0.0/8) has been added to the

<p>I would like to thank John Distler for his valuable input regarding TCP

<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>

result that a policy of REJECT was enforced rather than the intended

'try' command allows you to create a new <a

to start it; if there is an error that leaves your firewall

the default configuration (in /etc/shorewall).</li>

an alternate directory is specified when starting or

restarting Shorewall (e.g., "shorewall -c /etc/testconf

restart"), Shorewall will first look for configuration files
|
||
in the alternate directory then in /etc/shorewall. To
|
||
create an alternate configuration simply:<br>
|
||
1. Create a New
|
||
Directory<br>
|
||
2. Copy to that
|
||
directory any of your configuration files that you
|
||
want to change.<br>
|
||
3. Modify the
|
||
copied files as needed.<br>
|
||
4. Restart Shorewall
|
||
specifying the new directory.</li>
|
||
<li>The rules for
|
||
allowing/disallowing icmp echo-requests (pings) are
|
||
now moved after rules created when processing the rules
|
||
file. This allows you to add rules that selectively allow/deny
|
||
ping based on source or destination address.</li>
|
||
<li>Rules that specify
|
||
multiple client ip addresses or subnets no longer
|
||
cause startup failures.</li>
|
||
<li>Zone names in
|
||
the policy file are now validated against the zones
|
||
file.</li>
|
||
<li>If you have
|
||
<a href="Documentation.htm#MangleEnabled">packet mangling</a>
|
||
support enabled, the "<a

|

the interface that have an RFC 1918 destination address.</li>
