Thanks for responding so quickly.
I applied the mentioned changes and it worked great.
I sincerely appreciate all your efforts.
Thanks so much for your time and support.

@bbcan177 the response is always empty:
I've figured it out, v3.1.0_9 don't work with my HA/HAProxy setup.
More precisely with Host Overrides for HAProxy on LAN-Carp-VIP Address (192.168.1.254).
v3.1.0_7 working fine.

@bbcan177 Just upgraded to 3.1.0_9 (from _7) on 22.05-RELEASE (amd64) after disabling pfBlocker before install (enable after, and ran Update). Everything looks great so far!
-
@thexman I'll give this a shot and see how it goes, thank you!

@bbcan177 Hi,
after upgrading to _9 installations that utilized the IOC lists from ThreatFox / abuse.ch
(https://threatfox.abuse.ch/export/)
won't download the list anymore. Be it the JSON file from the last 48 hours or the full data dump (zipped with "zip" not gzip), it always ends in a MIME Type Error:[ Abuse_ThreatFox_v4 ] Downloading update .. 200 OK. PFB_FILTER - 18 | pfb_download Failed or invalid Mime Type Compressed: [application/x-decompression-error-gzip-Unknown-compression-format|0]
or
[ Abuse_ThreatFox_48h_v4 ] Downloading update .. 200 OK [PFB_FILTER - 17] Failed or invalid Mime Type: [application/json|0] [ pfB_PRI1_v4 - Abuse_ThreatFox_48h_v4 ] Download FAIL DNSBL, Firewall, and IDS (Legacy mode only) are not blocking download.
That only happened recently after upgrading, before it was running fine with _6 or _7 I believe the systems were on. The old list from before the update was/is still being used so it worked before.
List URLs are working via shell/curl or in browser so no problem on that front. It's only when trying to download it with pfB that those Mime Type errors pop up.
Edit: Edit: Curl in shell sees normal content types:
content-type: application/json
orcontent-type: application/zip
so no clue where that failed or invalid types come from.Cheers

@jegr
The latest code now validates the contents of all Compressed files before extraction to ensure that the file-mime type is allowed.There is a currently an incompatibility with ZIP files and the 'file' mime-type magic database that validates the Compressed file type contents as "application/x-decompression-error-gzip-Unknown-compression-format".
I tried to see if the file maintainer could add functionality to fix this, but unfortunately I had no luck with that. So for now, I have no way to validate the ZIP file contents before extraction, so in the next version it will first Extract ZIP compressed files, and then perform the file-mime type validation on the extracted file. I will continue to see if I can find a way to validate before extraction.
The second part is that the next version will add "application/json" as a valid mime-type.
Thanks for the report!

Does that mean a URL like MSFT Azure IP Blocks will be a valid download source? At present, I have to download this on my PC then upload it to /var/db/pfblockerng/deny on my pfSense box.
Note the MSFT Azure IP Blocks link sends you to a page where the file download starts; that page contains a link to the most current file (at present, https://download.microsoft.com/download/7/1/D/71D86715-5596-4529-9B13-DA13A5DE5B63/ServiceTags_Public_20230102.json).

Hi
I was reading about the DoH/DoT/DoQ Blocking feature in DNSBL SafeSearch of my
pfBlockerNG-devel v3.1.0_9.
As far as I have understood it, it blocks clients on my LAN to use DoH/DoT, so
I was wondering if this feature can also affect DoT queries from Unbound itself since I enabled DoT in its setting.
Thanks

@sensei-two I believe it does. I use unbound to funnel all public DNS queries to Cloudflare over DoT. But I took a different approach to blocking all other DoT/DoH.
I have pfB-NG creating a deny alias using these blocklists:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Sekhan/TheGreatWall/master/TheGreatWall_ipv4
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Sekhan/TheGreatWall/master/TheGreatWall_ipv6Then I created rules on the LAN-side interfaces that destination blocks the aliases that these blocklists create.
Unbound should be using your WAN interface to reach your DoT provider and it won't have an ingress interface (i.e. there's no LAN-to-WAN or WAN-to-LAN flow). The only way I think you could control the firewall's own egress-to-WAN would be using a floating rule.
-
I also use Unbound to funnel DNS queries to Cloudflare over DoT,
so, in your opinion, if I now enable the DoH/DoT/DoQ Blocking feature in pfng something might be wrong with my "legitimate" DNS queries over DoT, right?I am interested in your approach to block DoT from LAN's clients, but I new to pfblockerNG, and I didn't use pfSense for a long time either, so bear with me, please.
Could you tell me how to set the deny alias using the blocklists above, please?
Should I delete my floating rules if I create the new rules on the LAN-side?
My floating rules:Thanks
-
@sensei-two It's been a while since I looked at the DoT/DoH blocking in pfB-NG, but I thought it creates floating rules, which would impact the unbound service's egress out of the WAN interface (as well as any other interface) unless you configure the floating rule to exempt the WAN address. The problem I see with that is that you can't generally edit auto-generated rules because they are overwritten after an update cron job.
Maybe that has since been fixed in pfB-NG? I don't know for sure. I can only speak to my solution, which I have tested and know works in my environment for the DoT and DoH providers in those blocklists.
I have pfBlocker-NG creating these aliases. These can probably be Alias Native instead of Alias Deny. My understanding of de-dup and reputation should be irrelevant in my config. IPv4 details shown here. I have an identical IPv6 one, as well.
Then assign these aliases to block rules near the top of your LAN side, before anything that might allow them.
-
Ok, I think I have understood how to set them, and
I'm going to give them a go.
This way you can do without the DoH/DoT/DoQ Blocking feature in DNSBL SafeSearch, can't you?
Out of curiosity. Did you also try the DoH/DoT/DoQ Blocking feature? If so, did you stumble upon some issues because of it?
Thanks -
@sensei-two I honestly don't remember. I probably did. I have a couple subnets where I do allow less restricted outbound access, so it's possible I did this just to have more control.
Looking at the feeds, I also threw these into the custom IP lists (IPv4 and IPv6, respectively) at the bottom since they weren't covered by the feeds themselves.
1.0.0.2/31
1.1.1.2/31
2606:4700:4700::1002
2606:4700:4700::1003
2606:4700:4700::1112
2606:4700:4700::1113I noticed you mentioned DoQ, as well. For completeness, here's how I'm blocking everything DNS-related on my guest subnet except for my unbound resolver.

Very helpful. Thank you very much indeed

I came up with these firewall rules:
I had already set a NAT rule for dns redirection which makes its work:In order to test the DoH/Dot block rules I enabled DoT in the Firefox browser of one on my clients, but it seems that it doesn't work.
The client gets access to webpage nonetheless.
What did I get wrong? ThanksUPDATE!
I also see this log:
maybe the browser is being redirect to port 53 if DoH queries can't be resolved because of the new pf_rules I added.
Any thought? -

Any thought?If you are talking about Browsers using DoH - there normally should be fallback to a system's DNS setting if no DoH can be established for exactly that case. AFAIR Firefox etc. have a setting to disallow that to "avoid" being redirected to a "bad/controlled DNS" but in a home/company setting that's exactly what you want because otherwise many internal domains/services are unavailable (as they are often non-public DNS entries). But that discussion has become way out of scope of that post here, where the topic is about the new version and problems/bugs that may happen with it. Please put posts about usage/config problems of a feature in a separate post (as that feature wasn't introduced in version 3.1.0_9 / _15) for better visibility :)
