PfBlockerNG 2.1.1_5 / Pfsense 2.4

RonpfS

Try http://10.10.10.1

AhnHEL

Blank page and the browser title bar says 10.10.10.1 (1x1)

That correct?

RonpfS

Yes

AhnHEL

Thanks again, Ron. Is this easily resolved for a permanent fix?

2.1.1_6?

RonpfS

Can't tell,
maybe we will get a patch, or another release, or back to 2.1.1_4, only BBcan177 can tell.

But now we know where the problem is.

Testing a patch now… Will update in a day or so...

PM sent, code changes seem to fix the problem perfectly.

Just wanted to chime in for the people trying to get this to work before the patch and wanted a code solution.

I at least solved this by modifying pfblockerng.inc to use a created config file. Modification were around ln 937 of pfblockerng.inc in /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng:

before
–--------------------

exec("/usr/bin/openssl req -new -x509 -keyout {$pfb['dnsbl_cert']} -out {$pfb['dnsbl_cert']} -days 3650 -nodes");

after
–--------------------

		        exec("echo '[req]' > request.cfg");
			exec("echo 'default_bits=3072' >> request.cfg");
			exec("echo 'default_md=sha256' >> request.cfg");
			exec("echo 'prompt=no' >> request.cfg");
			exec("echo 'distinguished_name=req_distinguished_name' >> request.cfg");
			exec("echo '' >> request.cfg");
			exec("echo '[req_distinguished_name]' >> request.cfg");
			exec("echo 'commonName=unbound' >> request.cfg");
			exec("/usr/bin/openssl req -new -x509 -config request.cfg -keyout {$pfb['dnsbl_cert']} -out {$pfb['dnsbl_cert']} -days 3650 -nodes");
			exec("rm -f request.cfg");

I'm sure your patch does this far more gracefully however

I failed to post the manual fix by BBcan177 because I thought the patch would have been out relatively quickly but just realized it has been over 2 weeks since the last correspondence involving this. The following is the instructions BBcan177 gave me to test that worked perfectly.

Backup file:

cp /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc /tmp/pfblockerng.inc.bk

Edit:

/usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc and remove line 937

exec("/usr/bin/openssl req -new -x509 -keyout {$pfb['dnsbl_cert']} -out {$pfb['dnsbl_cert']} -days 3650 -nodes");

Here is what Line 937 looks like:
https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/blob/devel/net/pfSense-pkg-pfBlockerNG/files/usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc#L937

Then at line 937 add the following code:

$dn = array ( 'countryName' => 'CA',
'stateOrProvinceName' => 'ST_DNSBL',
'localityName' => 'LN_DNSBL',
'organizationName' => 'ON_DNSBL',
'organizationalUnitName'=> 'OU_DNSBL',
'commonName' => 'CN_DNSBL',
'emailAddress' => 'dnsbl@dnsbl.com'
);

$pkey = openssl_pkey_new();
$csr = openssl_csr_new($dn, $pkey);
$cert = openssl_csr_sign($csr, NULL, $pkey, 3650);

openssl_pkey_export($pkey, $privatekey);
openssl_x509_export($cert, $publickey);
@file_put_contents("{$pfb['dnsbl_cert']}", "{$privatekey}{$publickey}", LOCK_EX);

The final changes should look like this:

// Create DNSBL SSL certificate
if (!file_exists ("{$pfb['dnsbl_cert']}")) {
$log = "\nNew DNSBL cert created";
pfb_logger("{$log}", 1);

//exec("/usr/bin/openssl req -new -x509 -keyout {$pfb['dnsbl_cert']} -out {$pfb['dnsbl_cert']} -days 3650 -nodes");

$dn = array ( 'countryName' => 'CA',
'stateOrProvinceName' => 'ST_DNSBL',
'localityName' => 'LN_DNSBL',
'organizationName' => 'ON_DNSBL',
'organizationalUnitName'=> 'OU_DNSBL',
'commonName' => 'CN_DNSBL',
'emailAddress' => 'dnsbl@dnsbl.com'
);

$pkey = openssl_pkey_new();
$csr = openssl_csr_new($dn, $pkey);
$cert = openssl_csr_sign($csr, NULL, $pkey, 3650);

openssl_pkey_export($pkey, $privatekey);
openssl_x509_export($cert, $publickey);
@file_put_contents("{$pfb['dnsbl_cert']}", "{$privatekey}{$publickey}", LOCK_EX);
}

Delete the old PEM file

rm /var/unbound/dnsbl_cert.pem

Goto Update Tab and run a "Force Update" which should rebuild the PEM file

Check to see if the service is running and that the DNBSL Logs are still working (Alerts Tab)

Manually try to restart the DNSBL Service to see if its working as expected

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/dnsbl.sh restart

Thank you this has now worked for me
