combust

combust is an nftables firewall script with profiles.

Configuration

All configuration options are located in /etc/combust.conf.

ICMP_REPLY: Set to 1 to enable ping replies.

USE_IPV6: Set to 1 to enable IPv6 support. If 0, all IPv6 packets, both inbound and outbound, are dropped.

VPN_SERVER: Set to 1 if the host is a VPN server. See also IPV4_VPN and IF[VPN].

STRICT_LOOPBACK: Set to 1 to only allow loopback connections directly to and from the loopback interface.

IPV4_LAN: Optional list of local IP ranges (in CIDR notation).

IPV4_VPN: VPN subnet address, ignored if VPN_SERVER is not enabled.

IF: An array of group names to interfaces (or other group names). For example:

IF=(
  [LO]='lo'
  [LAN]='eth0'
  [WLAN]='wlan0'
  [WAN]='LAN WLAN'
)

Here, the WAN interfaces (those with external internet access) are specified by the LAN and WLAN group names (eth0 and wlan0 in this example).

Lists of open ports are specified by protocol and the name of the interface(s). For example:

# ${PROTOCOL}_${INTERFACE_GROUP}="${PORT1} [${PORT2}] ..."
TCP_WAN='22'
UDP_WLAN='2048'

The first line above opens TCP port 22 on the WAN interfaces (using the previous example, this includes interfaces eth0 and wlan0).

The second line opens UDP port 2048 only on the WLAN (wlan0) interface.

Rate limiting per-minute can be specified by including the limit after the port number, seperated by a colon:

TCP_WAN='22:4'

This will limit connections to TCP port 22 on the WAN interfaces to 4 per minute.
