Ubuntu Security :: IPTables - Setting Default Rules To All Chains As DROP
Jun 30, 2010I've read the instruction about setting up the iptables rules to filter all port except HTTP, SSH, FTP. I require first remove all default iptables rules and set default rules to all chains as DROP:
# Set default-deny policies for all three default chains
$IPTABLES -P INPUT DROP
$IPTABLES -P FORWARD DROP
$IPTABLES -P OUTPUT DROP
Then allow only some ports:
#Accept inbound packets that are part of previously-OK'ed sessions
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -j ACCEPT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED
# Accept inbound packets which initiate SSH sessions
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -p tcp -j ACCEPT --dport 22 -m state --state NEW
# Accept inbound packets which initiate FTP sessions
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -p tcp -j ACCEPT --dport 21 -m state --state NEW
# Accept inbound packets which initiate HTTP sessions
$IPTABLES -A INPUT -p tcp -j ACCEPT --dport 80 -m state --state NEW
# Log anything not accepted above $IPTABLES -A INPUT -j LOG --log-prefix "Dropped by default:"
But I hired a VPS from other country so the only mean I can manage it is via SSH. If I setup the default rule to DROP first, I afraid that I can no longer connect via SSH to tell iptables allow SSH
So my question is:
- Does the IP tables take effect immediately after I input a rule?
- Is there any mean to run this as a batch job (create a script and run all these rules one time).
- My VPS has a web control panel which have a terminal via web. Is this a native terminal or just a connection via port 80 or 22?
Security :: IPTables Layered Chains - Create Rules For Certain Services Like Xmpp / Web
Jan 16, 2010I want to simplify some of my rules, so I want to create rules for certain services like xmpp, web, etc. since some of them use multiple ports, and I toggle them on/off a lot. Can I simply put the jump to rule clauses in the Input chain, and once the sub chains run, does it return to the input chain after the jump to rule clause? I want to do this so I don't have a ton of rules in the input chain. I think that if I simply make a list of all the rules to jump to in the input chain, it will work itself through all of them until it finds a matching filter in one of them correct?

Ubuntu Security :: Insecure Iptable Rules?
Sep 12, 2010I've configured iptables to act as a stateful firewall, but instead of simply rejecting packets I'd like to waste a potenial hackers time by droping any packet that would otherwise be returned. Are my rules sufficient or have I somehow opened myself up to an attacker by trying to write these rules myself?

Ubuntu Security :: Setting IPTable Rules For FTP Server?
Jun 22, 2011I recently set up a ftp server in my house running a dyndns service so I can get to it from the outside. I called my isp to get some help in setting up the router to forward port 21 from the outside to that box, and in short we had some problems. Long story short, they ended up bypassing the router itself, and now the line running to the box is its own fixed external ip. Naturally I want a pretty darn good iptables setup for this. The box runs proftpd and so far my iptables only accepts local loopback and port-21. (I left port 80 closed as its only purpose is to be a standalone ftp server) But I know there must be a safer rule for port 21, as right now its just wide open. Anyone have any ideas on how to make this a bit safer? Also would that command be fine for any of the linux machines im connecting to it from the outside too?
View 3 Replies View RelatedFedora Security :: FC15 And Iptable Rules ?
Jul 16, 2011I don't know if FC15 has the iptable rules like the ones shown below by default or not but I wanted a second opinion about the safety they provide. Why is icmp accepted (INPUT rule 1) from/to all ip? and is it better to remove this rule? When the protocol is all (INPUT rule 2), does it mean from ip layer and above?? and is it required/safe to have this rule? The 3rd rule is to allow tcp-port 22 connections (ssh) to/from all ip. I think this is correctly set and required. The 4th rule in INPUT table rejects pings with the icmp-host-prohibited message; which I don't think is the best solution. Instead it can be set to silently drop icmp packets. Then, the FORWARD table uses reject instead of silent drop for forwarding icmp ping packets.
Code:
what do you think about the new rules and their order?
Security :: Creating Custom SSH Iptable Rules For Use With UFW?
Feb 22, 2011I'm trying to set up a firewall at the moment that allows access to my custom SSH port from only my friend's url (they have a static url but dynamic IP). I find iptables a bit of a nightmare and was hoping to use UFW for most of my day to day firewall maintenance and just make a few extra iptable rules to cover exceptional circumstances like this. Fortunately it seems UFW allows this with /etc/ufw/before.rules and /etc/ufw/after.rules. So at the moment I'm just trying to get the basic iptables rules right. As I say I'm not very good with iptables, does this look right?
Code:
## Drop Default SSH port access With Logging
iptables -N SSH_DEFAULT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -j SSH_DEFAULT

Server :: Iptable Rules Some To Save And Some Not To Upon Reboot?
Apr 17, 2010I am having a Xen server xend daemon is taking care of giving interface names like vif1.0 or vif0.2 to the connected guest operating systems on it.I can not save the current IPTABLE rules since upon reboot the xend daemon gives different names to virtual ethernet interfaces i.e. vif1.0 or vif3.0 or vif9.0 like that.I have some rules that I want to be active upon subsequent reboots and not all.Say for example an SSH to external server at port 8000 should forward the request to a machine on LAN.Which I have done by port forwarding from IPTABLES.So I need to save some rules.I was thinking to make a script which on reboot activates those rules.
I am not clear on where to do that.I came across internet and found /etc/network/if-up.d/I am not clear with this directory my question is if I make a scrip which has IPTABLE rules as I want and save it in above folder will it work. I am not clear with what is /etc/network/if-up.dfor.Suppose my logic is wrong then how should I go for it.Also I want to know does a protocol uses two port to make a connection.I have forgotten that thing,i.e if I run an SMTP or ssh then do they use port 22 and 23 both in case of ssh or 25 and 26 both for SMTP like that or just specifying the rules for one port will be enough.I tested these rules in a secure environment where i had disabled firewall and ssh forwarding on router worked well
Networking :: Check Older Iptable Rules That Were Loaded?
Oct 14, 2010Is there a way to check older iptable rules that were loaded? I accidentally overwrote my iptables and that has killed internet access to all computers in the intranet.

Jul 30, 2013I just installed ufw and made some rules :-
Code: Select all$ sudo ufw enable

Now this gives the following :-
Code: Select allRule added
Rule added (v6)
Now is there anyway to tell it to NOT add the v6 rules (of course over time v6 will become the new standard and I'll have to upgrade my router and all) but till my ISP doesn't I just want to make it easy for myself.
I could install gufw and just take that rule out but wanted to know if there was a way to do that via CLI .
Debian :: Reset/remove Udev Persistent-net-rules?
Apr 30, 2011I should create a sqeeze image and install it on other computers.Udev should detect network card (NIC) module and load it automatically at startup.How I understand /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules runs when udev starts, then writes to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.The problem is, udev searches for this NIC on other hardware and the network cannot start.I can solve this problem easily using a startup script to delete /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file.

Ubuntu Security :: How To Create An Iptable Rule
Sep 1, 2011I need help creating an iptable rule. The iptables are installed on my router. My router also connects to a "hide my a**" vpn account
at 79.142.65.5:443 The goal is to somehow force the traffic to go through the vpn, because what sometimes happens is, the vpn connection drops (for what ever reason) and my real ip becomes exposed. Basically, I want to block "myself" from accessing the Internet when not connected to the vpn because of privacy concerns.
Below is my iptables. It has the 3 default chains and it also has many custom user chains. I need to know what kind of a rule to add, What interface to apply it to (lo,tun0,br-lan,eth1) and the correct chain to insert into.For example, you could tell me something like:
Quote:
FORWARD chain, change rule 1 to
iptables -R FORWARD 1 -j zone_wan_MSSFIX -p tcp --destination-port 443 -i eth1
Obviously, That was just a guess, I need someone that knows iptables to help me.
Code:
Chain INPUT (Policy: ACCEPT)
Rule # Traffic Target Prot In Out Source Destination Options
Rule 1 72.95 KB DROP all * * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state INVALID
Rule 2 1.11 GB ACCEPT all * * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state RELATED,ESTABLISHED

Ubuntu Security :: Iptable REDIRECT From Local Machine?
Nov 8, 2010I have a server that is on a high port number, and people want it on port 80. For root exploit issues people say the server can not run as root. So to solve things I want to redirect port 80 to a high port number, say 12345 on the machine. This has been discussed all over the web, so I find I need to do this:
/sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d 123.45.67.89 --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 12345
/sbin/iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables
And I do this, an voila things work for the whole world. All machines in the world can see the server on port 80 on the machine.Except, on the machine itself. On the machine 123.45.67.89, I try to get to the server on 123.45.67.89:80, I get a can't connect error. On the machine if I try 123.45.67.89:12345 I can connect.What am I doing wrong here? I don't want localhost network really, I want the ip address and port, but I want the forwarding to work on the local machine. But it doesn't...
