<para>Shorewall supports two different types of blacklisting; rule-based,

static and dynamic. The BLACKLIST option in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf
|
|
controls the degree of blacklist filtering.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The BLACKLIST option lists the Netfilter connection-tracking states
|
|
that blacklist rules are to be applied to (states are NEW, ESTABLISHED,
|
|
RELATED, INVALID, NOTRACK). The BLACKLIST option supersedes the
|
|
BLACKLISTNEWONLY option:</para>

<para>BLACKLISTNEWONLY=No -- All incoming packets are checked against

the blacklist. New blacklist entries can be used to terminate existing

<title>Rule-based Blacklisting</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 4.4.25, the preferred method of
|
|
blacklisting and whitelisting is to use the blrules file (<ulink
|
|
url="manpages/shorewall-blrules.html">shorewall-blrules</ulink> (5)).
|
|
There you have access to the DROP, ACCEPT, REJECT and WHITELIST actions,
|
|
standard and custom macros as well as standard and custom actions. See
|
|
<ulink url="manpages/shorewall-rules.html">shorewall-blrules</ulink> (5)
|
|
for details.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Example:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>#ACTION SOURCE DEST PROTO DPORT

DROP all net udp 1023:1033

|
|
|
|
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 4.4.26, the <command>update</command>
|

command supports a <option>-b</option> option that causes your legacy
|
|
blacklisting configuration to use the blrules file.</para>

<title>Chain-based Dynamic Blacklisting</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 4.4.7, dynamic blacklisting is enabled by
|
|
setting DYNAMIC_BLACKLIST=Yes in <filename>shorewall.conf</filename>.
|
|
Prior to that release, the feature is always enabled.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Once enabled, dynamic blacklisting doesn't use any configuration
|
|
parameters but is rather controlled using /sbin/shorewall[-lite] commands.

<emphasis role="bold">Note</emphasis> that <emphasis

role="bold">to</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">from</emphasis> may

<title>Ipset-based Dynamic Blacklisting</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 5.0.8, it is possible to use an ipset to
|
|
hold blacklisted addresses. The DYNAMIC_BLACKLIST option was expanded
|
|
to:</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><emphasis role="bold">DYNAMIC_BLACKLIST=</emphasis>{<emphasis
|
|
role="bold">Yes</emphasis>|<emphasis role="bold">No</emphasis>||<emphasis
|
|
role="bold">ipset</emphasis>[<emphasis
|
|
role="bold">-only</emphasis>][<replaceable>,option</replaceable>[,...]][:[<replaceable>setname</replaceable>][:<replaceable>log_level</replaceable>|:l<replaceable>og_tag</replaceable>]]]}</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>When <option>ipset</option> or <option>ipset-only</option> is
|
|
specified, the <command>shorewall blacklist</command> command is used to
|
|
blacklist a single host or a network. The <command>allow</command> command
|
|
is used to remove entries from the ipset. The name of the set
|
|
(<replaceable>setname</replaceable>) and the level
|
|
(<replaceable>log_level</replaceable>), if any, at which blacklisted
|
|
traffic is to be logged may also be specified. The default set name is
|
|
SW_DBL4 and the default log level is <option>none</option> (no logging).
|
|
If <option>ipset-only</option> is given, then chain-based dynamic
|
|
blacklisting is disabled just as if DYNAMIC_BLACKLISTING=No had been
|
|
specified.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Possible <replaceable>option</replaceable>s are:</para>
|
|
|
|
<variablelist>
|
|
<varlistentry>
|
|
<term>src-dst</term>
|
|
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>Normally, only packets whose source address matches an entry
|
|
in the ipset are dropped. If <option>src-dst</option> is included,
|
|
then packets whose destination address matches an entry in the ipset
|
|
are also dropped.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
</varlistentry>
|
|
|
|
<varlistentry>
|
|
<term><option>disconnect</option></term>
|
|
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>The <option>disconnect</option> option was added in Shorewall
|
|
5.0.13 and requires that the conntrack utility be installed on the
|
|
firewall system. When an address is blacklisted using the
|
|
<command>blacklist</command> command, all connections originating
|
|
from that address are disconnected. if the <option>src-dst</option>
|
|
option was also specified, then all connections to that address are
|
|
also disconnected.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
</varlistentry>
|
|
|
|
<varlistentry>
|
|
<term><option>timeout</option>=<replaceable>seconds</replaceable></term>
|
|
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>Added in Shorewall 5.0.13. Normally, Shorewall creates the
|
|
dynamic blacklisting ipset with timeout 0 which means that entries
|
|
are permanent. If you want entries in the set that are not accessed
|
|
for a period of time to be deleted from the set, you may specify
|
|
that period using this option. Note that the
|
|
<command>blacklist</command> command can override the ipset's
|
|
timeout setting.</para>
|
|
|
|
<important>
|
|
<para>Once the dynamic blacklisting ipset has been created,
|
|
changing this option setting requires a complete restart of the
|
|
firewall; <command>shorewall restart</command> if RESTART=restart,
|
|
otherwise <command>shorewall stop && shorewall
|
|
start</command></para>
|
|
</important>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
</varlistentry>
|
|
</variablelist>
|
|
|
|
<para>When ipset-based dynamic blacklisting is enabled, the contents of
|
|
the blacklist will be preserved over
|
|
<command>stop</command>/<command>reboot</command>/<command>start</command>
|
|
sequences if SAVE_IPSETS=Yes, SAVE_IPSETS=ipv4 or if
|
|
<replaceable>setname</replaceable> is included in the list of sets to be
|
|
saved in SAVE_IPSETS.</para>

<title>BLACKLIST Policy and Action</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 5.1.1, it is possible to specify BLACKLIST
|
|
in the POLICY column of <ulink
|
|
url="manpages/shorewall-policies.html">shorewall-policies</ulink>(5) when
|
|
ipset-based dynamic blacklisting is being used. When a packet is disposed
|
|
of via the BLACKLIST policy, the packet's sender is added to the dynamic
|
|
blacklist ipset and the packet is dropped.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Also available beginning with Shorewall 5.1.1 is a BLACKLIST action
|
|
for use in the rules file, macros and filter table actions. Execute the
|
|
<command>shorewall show action BLACKLIST</command> command for
|
|
details.</para>
