I want to add an entry to a database every time a brute force registration attempt is done. from this database we are updating cisco routers with our ban list so our entire network is protected. The database side of things is working and has been for some time. I really would like to add the file2ban side of it to protect our asterisk system better. How would I best go about doing this

So I have been reading the ssh attack thread and finally want to ask about something. I doubt there is a program like this, but I would love to have a program that listens at common ports that I do not use at all...and only allow that program to listen to it, especially the usual ssh port (using a different one for real ssh)... That program would then, upon receiving a 'sniff' or

I got the fail2ban from epel. There were a number of issues relating to using a log file... logwatch was looking for both fail2ban and fail2ban.log logrotate file fail2ban added looked for fail2ban.log and then reset itself to syslog fail2ban itself went to syslog, over riding its fail2ban.log. took a while, but I use /var/log/fail2ban now, that finally worked through logrotates and logwatch.

I have fail2ban on my mail server monitoring Dovecot and Exim. I have noticed that it has stopped banning IP's. I have seen in /var/log/fail2ban.log: 2020-04-07 09:42:05,875 fail2ban.filter [16138]: INFO [dovecot] Found 77.40.61.224 - 2020-04-07 09:42:05 2020-04-07 09:42:06,408 fail2ban.actions [16138]: NOTICE [dovecot] Ban 77.40.61.224 2020-04-07 09:42:06,981

Hello list. I have a question for fail2ban for bad logins on sasl. I use sasl, sendmail and cyrus-imapd. In jail.conf I use the following syntax: [sasl-iptables] enabled = true filter = sasl backend = polling action = iptables[name=sasl, port=smtp, protocol=tcp] sendmail-whois[name=sasl, dest=my at email] logpath = /var/log/maillog maxretry = 6 and the following filter:

Tonight I added fail2ban to one of my webservers to test it out. Here is my step by step, as best as I could figure it out...documentation a bit sketchy. feel free to add anything to it or suggest changes. I tried to set it up to deal with ssh, http authentication, dovecot, ftp, and postfix I could find no working example for centos 6 and there is no fail2ban book available to peruse. So,

I'm seeing a lot of activity over the last two days with what looks to be a kiddie script. Mostly trying to access several of our servers with the username anna. All failed... in fact I don't think we have a user anna on any of our servers. Meanwhile... I'm running Sendmail. This pertains to Centos 4 and 5 servers. I'm also running fail2ban on some and Ossec on others. So far,

I'm running fail2ban to attempt to block malicious brute-force password dictionary attacks against ssh. They seem to be rolling through a block of ip addresses as the source to defeat this kind of screening, so I've set some ip addresses to be blocked in iptables. Here is the output of iptables -L (edited): Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination

I am being attacked by an entire subnet where the first two parts of the IP address remain identical but the last two parts vary sufficiently that it is not caught by fail2ban since the attempts do not meet the cut-off of a certain number of attempts within the given time. Has anyone created a fail2ban filter for this type of attack? As of right now, I have manually banned a range of IP addresses

Greetings all, I have been seeing a lot of [Jan 2 16:36:31] NOTICE[7519]: chan_sip.c:23149 handle_request_invite: Sending fake auth rejection for device 100<sip:100 at 108.161.145.18>;tag=2e921697 in my logs lately. Is there a way to automatically ban IP address from attackers within asterisk ? Thank you

Hello, fail2ban does not ban offending IP.

Situation: We are providing hosting services. I've grown tired of the various kiddie scripts/dictionary attacks on various services. The latest has been against vsftpd, on systems that I can't easily control vs. putting strict limits on ssh. We simply have too many users entering from too many networks many with dynamic IP addresses. Enter.... thinking about LIDS or Log Based

We use a home-brew system similar to fail2ban to block traffic from IP addresses which appear to be doing Nasty Things(tm). The main thing our system does that fail2ban doesn't is to use a central DNSRBL we maintain allowing it to immedatiately ban listed IP addresses the first time they make an attempt to connection without waiting for them to hit a sufficient number of times to bring up the

I have been using centos 6 in a virtualized system for a few months now. Took a while to batten down the hatches with postfix, rbls, and to use fail2ban correctly. The mailserver for my website(s) are located on the http server as well..an 'all in one' server. DNS servers are separated. My two sites, and their emails addresses (1 for each) have been around for 10 and 15 years

Hi folks, "somehow" similar to the thread "under some kind oof attack" started by "MJ": I have dovecot shielded by fail2ban which works fine. But since a few days I see many many IPs per day knocking on my doors with wron password and/or users. But the rate at which they are knocking is very very low. So fail2ban will never catch them. For example one IP: Jul 25

fail2ban might be good for this.

Been working on my anti-spam centos mailserver for a while now and thought I would share fail2ban's help. I installed fail2ban a few weeks back. It was tough to get it working properly but pretty much working now. Although it works fine for brute force, I thought I would run it pretty tough against spammers. I started with a regular mail server, my old one, that is horrendously pounded
