About
This is all about security for people who ran internet services on their public (cloud) host.
Nobody wants to have a burglar in front of their doors, trying to guess the login credentials to your services.
If you want to prevent this, then this script might be your solution.
Syslog to Firewall is a tool to prevent hackers to get into your system. It runs on Linux and looks into the Syslog / Auth / FTP and Mail Log and searches invalid logons due to wrong user credentials, if it finds them then block it for a certain amount of times. Syslog to Firewall is a script called syslog2fw.
Requried Perl Modules
There are a few Perl modules required which do not get installed by default, please run the following commands:
-Installation sample for Debian
~# apt-get install libhttp-date-perl ~# apt-get install libxml-simple-perl ~# apt-get install libmail-sendmail-perl
Installation
- Download and untar the files
tar -ue syslog2fw.tar.gz
- Run the install script
~# ./install.sh

Firewall Init Script
A sample init script, this is a recommendation only, it is up to you how to setup your init script.
The only thing to be aware is that Syslog to Firewall will insert its rule into the second rule position of iptables (default).
Please make sure to initialize your basic rules at the first position of iptables.
The following script is a example:
#!/bin/bash # ############ #INIT NAMES ############ IPTABLES=/sbin/iptables INITWHITENAME=init-generic-white INITGENSRC=init-generic-service #Set the ip address of your host INITIP=1.2.3.4 ########################### #INIT DEFAULT POLICY - DROP ########################### $IPTABLES -P INPUT DROP $IPTABLES -P OUTPUT DROP $IPTABLES -P FORWARD DROP # ########################### #Flush Config ########################### $IPTABLES -F $IPTABLES -X # ########## #Whitelist ########## #This must be added to the first INPUT chain, please note that chain number 2 will be overwritten dynamicly ######################################################################################################### #SYSTEM RULES, REMEMBER: THIS IS THE FIRST RECORD FOR IPTABLES, THE SECOND WILL BE INSERTED BY THE SCRIPT ######################################################################################################### $IPTABLES -N $INITWHITENAME $IPTABLES -A $INITWHITENAME -s 127.0.0.1 -p all -j ACCEPT $IPTABLES -A $INITWHITENAME -s $INITIP -p all -j ACCEPT $IPTABLES -A $INITWHITENAME -i lo -p all -j ACCEPT ################################### #Whitlist, add or remove your rules ################################### #$IPTABLES -A $INITWHITENAME -s 1.2.3.0/16 -j ACCEPT #$IPTABLES -A $INITWHITENAME -s 1.2.3.0/16 -j ACCEPT ###################### #SYSTEM ALLOW BY STATE ###################### $IPTABLES -A $INITWHITENAME -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT ###################### #SYSTEM to INPUT chain ###################### $IPTABLES -A INPUT -j $INITWHITENAME # ####################################################################### #General Services, THIS WILL BE OUR THIRD RULE AFTER THE SCRIPT HAS RUN ####################################################################### $IPTABLES -N $INITGENSRC ######################### #Add or remove your rules ######################### #Allow FTP Inbound $IPTABLES -A $INITGENSRC -p TCP --dport=21 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT #Allow SSH Inbound $IPTABLES -A $INITGENSRC -p TCP --dport=22 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT #Allow SMTP Inbound $IPTABLES -A $INITGENSRC -p TCP --dport=25 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT #Allow WWW Inbound $IPTABLES -A $INITGENSRC -p TCP --dport=80 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT #Allow SSL Inbound $IPTABLES -A $INITGENSRC -p TCP --dport=443 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT #Allow ICMP Inbound $IPTABLES -A $INITGENSRC -p ICMP -j ACCEPT ###################### #SYSTEM to INPUT chain ###################### $IPTABLES -A INPUT -j $INITGENSRC # ############ #Return rule ############ #Allow all outputs $IPTABLES -A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT # ############# #LOG AND DROP ############# $IPTABLES -N my_drop -m comment --comment "Drop Access" $IPTABLES -A my_drop -p ICMP -j LOG --log-prefix "DROP-ICMP " $IPTABLES -A my_drop -p TCP -j LOG --log-prefix "DROP-TCP " $IPTABLES -A my_drop -p UDP -j LOG --log-prefix "DROP-UDP " $IPTABLES -A my_drop -j DROP $IPTABLES -A INPUT -j my_drop $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -j my_drop ### Finished ###
