Will you support nftables?

Question

Will you support nftables?

cybermcm opened this issue 5 years ago · comments

Hi,

Starting with Debian 10 nftables is the current FW solution. I'm managing my FW rules manually (not Docker integrated) and noticed that your fail2ban container uses iptable rules. Is it possible to enhance nftables support?

Hi @cybermcm, we have to wait fail2ban/fail2ban#2254

@crazy-max Thanks for your answer, didn't know that. You want me to close this issue or should it stay open in case someone else asks the same question?

CrazyMax · Answer 3 · Mon Sep 30 2019 11:55:53 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

@cybermcm Leave it open for now. I keep you in touch when this feature is implemented.

It seems the linked PR has been merged now.

/sbin` # for a in iptables iptables-save  iptables-restore; do ln -sf xtables-nft-multi $a;done

I ran the above inside the container, and this allowed bans to work. My host is Debian 10(buster).

@crazy-max Thank you for the information.
I changed my test server to nftables and it seems to work but during my test I noticed that although my own IP gets banned (testing with wrong credentials) I still can access my server. The f2b rule is in place 'table inet f2b-table', all my other rules are stored in 'table ip filter'. I had to change the default table 'inet filter' to 'ip filter' to get docker to continue to set up rules automatically. Maybe this is the reason that banning an IP isn't working?

CrazyMax · Answer 9 · Mon Jan 20 2020 00:39:47 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

@cybermcm I will make some tests too. Keep you in touch.

cybermcm · Answer 10 · Mon Jan 20 2020 00:56:22 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Thanks. I tried a few things but didn't get it to work (mainly due to my very basic nftables know-how I think). Question to begin with: With nftables is it still necessary to spin up 2 f2b instances (host and docker)? As far as I understand it shouldn't be necessary any more. Am I right?

cybermcm · Answer 11 · Tue Jan 28 2020 18:59:26 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

@crazy-max Just wanted to check if you need anything from my side? Can you reproduce my issue?

CrazyMax · Answer 12 · Tue Jan 28 2020 19:03:01 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I'll tell you when I've got some time

PhasecoreX · Answer 13 · Sun Feb 09 2020 01:59:28 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I spent some time messing with this, and I was able to get this working correctly (as far as I can tell).

I have a jail.d/default.conf file, where I set banaction in the default section:

[DEFAULT]
banaction = nftables[type=multiport]

This is the same for both my fail2ban-input and fail2ban-docker containers (one for host services, the other for docker containers, respectively). At this point, it seems like the fail2ban-input container was working (it bans SSH correctly). fail2ban-docker needs a bit more setup.

In action.d/nftables-common.local (a new file for only the fail2ban-docker container), I have done this:

[Init]
table = f2b-table-docker
chain_hook = forward

table is defined to not overwrite the default f2b-table that the fail2ban-input one generates, chain_hook is forward since I could not get the DOCKER_USER chain to work properly (fail2ban was also deleting the entire chain when it exits).

Now doing nft list ruleset, I get this below all the Docker stuff:

table inet f2b-table {
        set addr-set-sshd {
                type ipv4_addr
                elements = { ... }
        }

        chain f2b-chain {
                type filter hook input priority -1; policy accept;
                tcp dport { ssh } ip saddr @addr-set-sshd drop
        }
}
table inet f2b-table-docker {
        set addr-set-nginx-badbots {
                type ipv4_addr
                elements = { ... }
        }

        chain f2b-chain {
                type filter hook forward priority -1; policy accept;
                tcp dport { http, https } ip saddr @addr-set-nginx-badbots drop
        }
}

Seems to be working!

@PhasecoreX I tried your suggestion and can confirm that it works. Thanks for this suggestion!
Due to the fact that my knowledge about nft is at a very basic level I can't judge if this is solution has a downside....

PhasecoreX · Answer 15 · Sun Feb 09 2020 03:22:53 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

You're welcome! I figure the most basic fail2ban configuration by default should be able to block host stuff correctly (which it does). The downsides for the Docker setup is whatever the downsides of using forward instead of DOCKER-USER is. As I am also new to nft, I am not sure what those downsides are, if at all (as before DOCKER-USER was a thing, we used FORWARD as far as I can remember).

Hans-Cees Speel · Answer 16 · Wed Jun 24 2020 22:00:42 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Hi,
I have a debian running with nft on the host. I have an nginx docker container logging to access.log
I have mounted this file inside the fail2ban docker container.

root@debwaf-nginx2020:~/containers/fail2ban# uname -a
Linux debwaf-nginx2020 4.19.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.98-1 (2020-01-26) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Fail2ban sees the logging I want to catch (403 errors) and jails the ip-adresses fine:

root@debwaf-nginx2020:~# docker exec -it fail2ban fail2ban-client status nginx403
Status for the jail: nginx403
|- Filter
|  |- Currently failed:	2
|  |- Total failed:	2000
| - File list:	/var/log/nginx/access.log

   |- Total banned:	4
   - Banned IP list:	49.235.250.133 178.84.64.116 202.40.191.115 118.24.22.175

However the ip-adresses are not banned in nftables rules:

nft list ruleset
	chain DOCKER-USER {
		counter packets 3436342 bytes 5693372660 return
	}

My config is this:

vi /var/lib/docker/volumes/fail2ban_fail2ban_data/_data/jail.d/jail.local
[INCLUDES]

#before = paths-distro.conf
before = paths-debian.conf

[DEFAULT]
bantime  = 604800 # ban for 7 days

# "ignoreip" can be an IP address, a CIDR mask or a DNS host. Fail2ban will not
# ban a host which matches an address in this list. Several addresses can be
# defined using space separator.
ignoreip = 127.0.0.1/8 192.168.0.0/24 # Your IP address

[nginx403]

enabled = true
port = http,https
filter = nginx403
logpath = /var/log/nginx/access.log
#banaction = docker-action
banaction = nftables[type=multiport]
maxretry = 5
findtime = 120
bantime = 86400

docker-compose is this:

version: '3.4'
services:
  fail2ban:
    image: crazymax/fail2ban:latest
    restart: always
    container_name: fail2ban
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
      - NET_RAW
    volumes:
      - nginx_log:/var/log/nginx/

      - fail2ban_data:/data/
    environment:
      TZ: 'Europe/Amsterdam'
      F2B_DB_PURGE_AGE: 7d



volumes:
  #fail2ban_conf:
  fail2ban_data:
  nginx_log:
     external: true
     name: nginx_nginx_log

logging is a lot like this:

Howto troubleshoot further? Why doesnt fail2ban block the jailed hosts in nftables on the debian host?

@hanscees: I'm definitely no expert, I've done some things different but it is working:

compose file:
missing: network_mode: "host"
missing env: - F2B_IPTABLES_CHAIN=DOCKER-USER (not really sure if this is necessary)
create action.d/nftables-common.local file with

[Init]
table = f2b-table-docker
chain_hook = forward

see comment #29 (comment)

blocking IPs are added to table inet f2b-table in this case

Hans-Cees Speel · Answer 18 · Fri Jun 26 2020 18:56:34 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I do have the nftables, now I set networking to host.

However nothing is blocked. This probably has to do with my nftables setup using table inet.
have a look here:
moby/moby#26824

this docker-compose.yml works:

version: '3.4'
services:
  fail2ban:
    image: crazymax/fail2ban:latest
   #restart: always
    container_name: fail2ban
    network_mode: host

  fail2ban_data:
  nginx_log:

My conclusion "nothing is blocked" was wrong.

After adding host networking:

I did see a jail by checking via docker exec -it fail2ban fail2ban-client status
the jail could be checked and held ip-addresses docker exec -it fail2ban fail2ban-client status nginx403
On the host the nftables table was there: nft list table inet f2b-table-docker -n

table inet f2b-table-docker { # handle 21
	set addr-set-nginx403 { # handle 2
		type ipv4_addr
		elements = { 129.211.22.74, 213.41.135.119 }
	}

	chain f2b-chain { # handle 1
		type filter hook forward priority -1; policy accept;
		ip saddr @addr-set-nginx403 ip protocol tcp counter packets 0 bytes 0 tcp dport { http, https } drop # handle 9
		tcp dport { http, https } ip saddr @addr-set-nginx403 reject # handle 6
		tcp dport ssh counter packets 0 bytes 0 # handle 7
		tcp dport { http, https } counter packets 1 bytes 52 # handle 11
	}
}

notice I added the lines with handle 9, 7 and 11 manually by doing

nft add rule inet f2b-table-docker f2b-chain tcp dport { http, https } counter
nft insert rule inet f2b-table-docker f2b-chain position 6 ip saddr @addr-set-nginx403 ip protocol tcp counter tcp dport { http, https } drop

My issue was that maxretry was on 5 instead of 1 (I expected an immediate ban). After I set maxretry to 1 the bans are immediate as I want them to be.

Thanks for the help! nftables tested ok here!

PhasecoreX · Answer 20 · Wed Aug 05 2020 12:05:02 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Seeing as #46 and #17 were closed recently, I decided to revisit this to get nftables working with just one container for both input and forward chains. I think I got it working, and I am really happy with the results. With this setup, Fail2Ban makes one table, but makes 2 chains in it, one for input (host), and one for forward (docker).

First, make 2 files in the action.d folder:

action.d/nftables-input.conf

[INCLUDES]
before = nftables.conf

[Init]
chain = f2b-chain-input
chain_hook = input

action.d/nftables-forward.conf

[INCLUDES]
before = nftables.conf

[Init]
chain = f2b-chain-forward
chain_hook = forward

And that's it. For each of your jails, instead of using chain = INPUT or chain = DOCKER-USER, you would use banaction = nftables-input or banaction = nftables-forward, depending on if you are protecting a host service or a docker service respectively. There is no need to specify chain = ??? in the jail, as the banaction will take care of that. Here are the two examples given (sshd and traefik) but for nftables instead:

[sshd]
enabled = true
banaction = nftables-input
port = ssh
filter = sshd[mode=aggressive]
logpath = /var/log/auth.log
maxretry = 5

[traefik-auth]
enabled = true
banaction = nftables-forward
port = http,https
filter = traefik-auth
logpath = /var/log/traefik/access.log

[traefik-botsearch]
enabled = true
banaction = nftables-forward
port = http,https
filter = traefik-botsearch
logpath = /var/log/traefik/access.log

Hope this helps!

Small feedback coming from a different configuration from those already mentioned here.

I am under Fedora 32 Server with nftables and I am using Podman as well as SeLinux in Enforcing mode.

The container is launched via a systemd service (if some people are interested, I could add my unit).
Fail2ban is configured taking into account the information provided by @PhasecoreX (thanks to him)
And for the SeLinux rules, I generated them via the Udica utility.

For now, I have not yet set up all my jails but the one for sshd works perfectly and the IPs are correctly banned.

Nick Bradshaw · Answer 24 · Sat Apr 03 2021 12:21:32 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Hoping someone can help me with my Debian 10 nftables setup. I'm trying to do it the way @PhasecoreX described.

Relevant compose:

  fail2ban:
    container_name: fail2ban
    hostname: fail2ban
    image: crazymax/fail2ban:latest
    network_mode: "host"
    cap_add:
      - "NET_ADMIN"
      - "NET_RAW"
    volumes:
      - "/docker/config/fail2ban:/data"
      - "/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro"
      - "/var/log/auth.log:/var/log/auth.log:ro"
    environment:
      - "TZ=America/New_York"
    restart: unless-stopped
    logging:
      driver: json-file
      options: 
        max-file: "3"
        max-size: "10M"

My action.d/nftables-forward.conf:

[INCLUDES]
before = nftables.conf

[Init]
chain = f2b-chain-forward
chain_hook = forward

My action.d/nftables-input.conf:

[INCLUDES]
before = nftables.conf

[Init]
chain = f2b-chain-input
chain_hook = input

My jail.d/sshd.conf:

[sshd]
enabled = true
banaction = nftables-input
port = ssh
filter = sshd[mode=aggressive]
logpath = /var/log/auth.log
maxretry = 5

There are banned IP's by my jail:

root@Vergil:~# docker exec -it fail2ban fail2ban-client status sshd
Status for the jail: sshd
|- Filter
|  |- Currently failed: 3
|  |- Total failed:     38
|  `- File list:        /var/log/auth.log

   |- Total banned:     6
   `- Banned IP list:   36.80.211.9 180.246.127.205
root@Vergil:~#

But nothing in my iptables:

root@Vergil:~# iptables -S | grep f2b
# Warning: iptables-legacy tables present, use iptables-legacy to see them
root@Vergil:~# iptables-legacy -S | grep f2b

Any idea where I've gone wrong?

@goose-ws: your config seems fine. To view your bans try nftable tools, like
nft list ruleset
zero results with iptables command are perfectly fine if you switched to nftables

Did you update an old installation because then iptables stays.
If you want to switch then take a look at Debian nftables, but take care that you can reach your machine locally if you play around with your rules. I locked myself out about a hundred times ;-)

@calvinbui: Seems correct for me (but I'm no expert at all). Maybe another rule in place which interferes with the F2B rule?

Calvin Bui · Answer 30 · Mon Oct 04 2021 10:48:11 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I can get sshd being blocked successfully (INPUT chain) but not anything through to Docker.

I tried using the legacy method with update-alternatives but had the same issue.

Reading the docs, it mentions the FORWARD is evaluated after the DOCKER and DOCKER-USER chains. That would be the main difference between the 'legacy' implementation and this new way. Those chains were empty for me anyway:

table ip filter {
        ...

figured it out, iptables doesn't work on containers using macvlan.

I can confirm that. I also have MacVlan installed. I can see in the log that the IP was recognized and should be blocked. However, there is no action. This means that the page can still be accessed for the blocked IP. Does anyone know a solution?

Same problem here! I have an nginx reveres proxy container with a macvlan network and a docker bridge network before a vaultwarden with only the same bridge network. I got the events in the fail2ban log and also the ban, but I can still access the vaultwarden through the proxy. Any way to fix that?

                       --> Host  Network                             --> Fail2Ban Container
                     /
                   eth0
                   /
Router --> RP4 --> eth0.80 --> MACVLAN eth0.80 --> Ngynx Proxy Container --> Docker Bridge --> Vaultwarden Container

I have the same issue with MACVLAN... Did anyone of you ever fix this?
@calvinbui @Cavekeeper @TheUntouchable ?

TheUntouchable · Answer 35 · Wed Jan 11 2023 17:15:59 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Unfortunately no, but I'm switching from npm to traefik now and will block access via CrowdSec for additional security without iptables or nftables.
Have a look here if this is interesting for you:

I updated alternatives to iptables-legacy to get it working

Hmm, interesting...
For me it shows that it is doing the ban, it creates the rule properly, but I can still access the container then, which is weird.

I don't think @calvinbui is using macvlans, as here the local firewall will not kick in anyway

I am using macvlan for all my containers, but the fail2ban container is running in host mode.

TheUntouchable · Answer 40 · Fri Jan 20 2023 15:34:59 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Mh okay. I had fail2ban also in host mode and also tried to switch the alternatives to iptable-legacy, but I am using a raspberrypi 4 with a Raspberry 64Bit OS and somehow there is a problem with ip/nftables on that I have the feeling.. :(
