Informations about the package aws_acl_fail2ban

aws-acl-fail2ban

This package includes a script and fail2ban configuration that allows you to use fail2ban when utilizing AWS elastic load balancer (ELB) and an apache webserver. It is useful to protect your site against DoS and brute force attacks when behind a reverse proxy load balancer like ELB. Special consideration is required when using ELB with fail2ban because ELB only forwards the client IP to the server in an X-Forwarded-For header. Following this guide will enable you to use ELB, Apache webservers and AWS ACL together with fail2ban for an dynamic firewall solution.

Dependencies

Installation

  1. The recommended method of installation is by using composer to install: composer require anthonymartin/aws_acl_fail2ban - alternatively, you can clone or download this repository.
  2. Ensure that your apache configuration and your fail2ban configuration is correct. Some help has been provided below.

Apache Configuration

  1. Enable RemoteIP mod

  2. Update apache configuration - the configuration below is what my configuration found at /etc/apache2/apache2.conf looks like. Be sure to include RemoteIPHeader and replace LogFormat with the lines found below.

  3. run sudo service apache2 reload

fail2ban Configuration

  1. Copy fail2ban/action.d/aws-acl.conf in /etc/fail2ban/action.d/ directory
  2. Copy fail2ban/filter.d/aws-acl-example-filter.conf to /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/ directory
  3. Update actionban and actionunban definitions in /etc/fail2ban/action.d/aws-acl.conf. You need tos replace both instances of /path/to/aws-acl-fail2ban to the location of aws-acl-fail2ban on your server. If you've installed with composer, the location is vendor/bin/aws-acl-fail2ban, otherwise the location is in bin/aws-acl-fail2ban. You should use the absolute path when updating actionban and actionunban.
  4. Replace both instances of ACL_ID_GOES_HERE in /etc/fail2ban/action.d/aws-acl.conf with the acl-id of the ACL that you would like to use.
  5. Create or update your jail.local configuration. Replace the filter definition below with your own filter if you have one. The example filter configuration included in this package will match all POST and GET requests that are not images, css or javascript (note this doesn't include font files as of this time, but it probably should). The filter together with the jail.local configuration here will be useful for stopping crawl attempts and certain types of HTTP Flood DoS or brute force attacks. Here's an example jail.local configuration:
