Unofficial E2guardian package for pfSense

marcelloc

This missing files on about page should not be therw. It's from postfix package I'll fix it.

The socket already in use is a service recall pfSensedo on wpad every config save. I'll try to ignore these calls from system and restart only from gui save.

Check my edit, I have found a way to reproduce the crashes of E2Guardian easily.

I've update my ports with current e2guardian code and removed the debug patches I've created while was trying to fix ILLEGAL INSTRUCTION bug we found before.

At least on 2.4 it's stable. I"ll update the binaries to 2.3 and also fix the about page.

pkg version 0.1.1 updates for 2.3 and 2.4 8)

No crashes on my tests until now.

I've upgraded to your latest package and I'm on pfsense 2.3.4, I'm still getting those crashes. :(

Have you been able to recreate the issue? Why is it giving so many issues on 2.3.4 if it works fine on 2.4?
Have you tried using multiple IP's? Currently I've assigned every single IP in my dhcp range to a group and I'm still having problems.

Could it be something related to my custom block page? Since it also shows filtergroup, host name and IP address? I posted the source code here. I'll have to try with the default page later on and see if that makes a difference. Although I don't think that's the cause.

I'm using your page and also testing on 2.3 64 bits.

Alright let me know how it goes. That's basically the same setup as mine. By the way 4.1 completely fixed the error too many redirects issue. I haven't had that error at least since updating from 3.5.1 :)

marcelloc

How exactly can I reproduce the error?

Default install
Ip address authentication
squid as parent proxy(I'm using lan address to be able to test user authentication too)
two groups(default + admin)
home network on default group(192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0)
specific devices ips on admin group
ssl interception on both groups
sslregex on youtube urls

Is there a specific site or rule or deny rule that is crashing you box?

I'm also trying:

opening multiple browser tabs
refreshing online new sites(that refreshes itself every x seconds)
stopping site fetch during browser load, then loading another site, etc

Did you saw e2g binaries being updated during reinstall process? Pkg info should show e2guardian-4.1.1_1 pkg

I figured I would give E2guardian4 a spin and anytime something is blocked (word phase or blocked domain is what i tested so far), the daemon would crash. I think I've figure what is causing it, the block page.

When I used the block page provided by pfsensation, it crashes after it's display

pid 70160 (e2guardian), uid 65534: exited on signal 11

When I erase the block page, it doesn't put the default one back in there. So I graded the template from e2guardian github but that one doesn't want to load (haven't troubleshooting it yet)

Since that wouldn't load, I took the spanish template and used google to translate it for me. No more crashing when pages are blocked.

Ok. Try to add on pfsensation error page the html tags at the beginning and at the end. This is the way I'm using here.

Still crashes for me using the attached file. I took out the image too, and that didn't help. I'll have to revisit it later today or tomorrow.

I've been very busy today so I didn't get a chance to play around anymore. But if it really is to do with my block page causing the crash. Look at what is different from the official, namely, my block page shows client Group and Host name. Remove those and see if it crashes, if it doesn't that could be it. Something wrong with "-Filtergroup-" or "-Host-".

Edit: My page has a bypass link too. So it may be any of those tbh, bypass link creates a code. Judging by what Marcelloc was facing with illegal chars etc. That could somehow be related.

pfsensation

Not able to go on my pc right now but from my phone. I removed the code below.


#### Your details are below:

      _-USER- -HOST-_ _-FILTERGROUP-_ _-IP-_

      [Acknowledge](-BYPASS-)

It doesn't seem to be crashing anymore. I'll test a little more when possible. Not sure exactly which place holder is causing the issue, but it most likely maybe the filter group. Since the filter group doesn't show.

As I don't use bypass key, try just removing it from page. Maybe this is the difference from our config.

Also I identified why the apply button was not reloading completely the daemon. E2guardian has 3 ways to reload it without killing the process and the option I was using was the lightest one. Next gui version will have this fix.

If we can confirm that the -BYPASS- is crashing the daemon, I can open another ticket on e2guardian repo.

Cino

Its not -BYPASS- (it's working pretty good). So far I've found -FILTERGROUP- and -REASONLOGGED- will crash the daemon. And possibly the combo of using -USER- -HOST- -IP-.

-REASONGIVEN-, -CATEGORIES-, -USER- so far seem to working for me using the attach page with -BYPASS-.

I am using IP Address as my only Auth plugin if makes a difference.

Confirmed! I can get -bypass- working fine without crashes, adding any of those place holders above causes E2Guardian to quit. xD

I am also using IP address as my only auth, just to confirm. This is a weird bug, because it did work for couple authenticated users, if they had certain IP's it seemed. But I really don't know for sure why it was behaving so weird before, but now we know those particular place holders are causing the crashes. This is just a heads up if you have trouble re-creating the crashes Marcello. Also try to use my exact same block page source code, with everything intact, including -bypass-.

@pfsensation:

That's the way I use, just included htl tags before and after.

I'll start testing the 720 hosts network tomorrow. I'll use your template changing the image and will test it with and without those problematic fields.

Alrighty, let us know how it goes. Where will you test this by the way? In a business?
