How to Configure Action for 'automatic blocking an IP for an hour' in a vulnerability scanning?

L4 Transporter

Hello,

This would be possible to implement?
Configure my firewall to make a action for 'automatic blocking an IP for an hour' in a vulnerability scanning.

Objects -> Custom Objects -> Vulnerability

Example: IP auto-block attacker for 1 hour, if 10 times in 10 seconds Any Scan Vulnerability Bash.

I want "OR" condition.

Here. addition to "IP address exemptions" should also have an option of "exemptions region".

Last weekend we suffered a scan vulnerability Bash from different origins (countries). Do you think that might work?

 

If this worked well It could be a good method to persuade an attacker.

Hi Bradley,

 

you have "and" condition, you wanted "or", that is the left out of two buttons circled in red square, they should all end up under a single "And condition 1".... as in:

rules.png

 

Also, direction should not be both, it is client2server, right? Server will not attack someone 🙂

Besides all this, you will need to include this newly created vulnerability into your existing profile that applies to the security policy protecting this communication, I hope you didn't forget that part of the config 🙂

Hi,

 

You will see an entry in the threat logs with the action "block-ip". To see the list of currently blocked IPs, use the following command in the CLI:

 

debug dataplane show dos block-table

 

If you want to remove an IP address from the block list before the timer goes down to 0 :

 

clear dos-protection zone <sourcezone> blocked source <ip-addr>

Hi COS,

 

Your screenshots are very small, I can't see any detail. What is in the OR condition? Is there a reason why you did not simply change the timer in the existing Bash remote code execution vulnerabilities? Did you really need a brute-force style vulnerability?

Hello

I have two questions about this:
How can I verify that the firewall are blocking the attacking IP?

.. I imagine in the logs (threat). 😉
How can I check the time (timer) that carries a specific IP blocked?

Hello

Interesting commands.
Command quite helpful in unlocking an IP (false positive). I would also add the IP to the list of excluded. because otherwise it is likely that the IPS block again if detects a threat.

 

Thank you very much everybody.
