PfBlocker

marcelloc

Bman2121,
When you pass a range, pfBlocker will find a CIDR that matches it.
I saw in your list a realy large range( > /16).
Change this list to a CIDR format and see what happens.

hankjrfan00,

It's related to ip-blocklist package.
If you had removed it, maybe you need to delete this remaining script.

'/usr/local/pkg/pf/IP-Blocklist.sh start'

Also look for ipblocklist scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d

Thanks! Removing '/usr/local/pkg/pf/IP-Blocklist.sh' seems to have fixed the problem!

Ran into problems today, rules were not applied correctly … anyhow.
I removed pfblocker for my test, but the tables were still there.
The widget was also complaining
I removed /var/db/aliastables/pfBblocker* but I can still see them in Diagnositic: Table !

How to remove them?

So I reinstalled pfBlocker, create a table with the same name, with no list, nothing happenned.
I added a list, the table was recreated ... fine ;o)
I I renamed it to the second table, table is renamed ok.
Now I delete the table ... nothing happens, table still present
I disabled pfBlocker, all the tables were gone :D
I enabled pfBlocker, the old tables were finaly gone.

So I created another table, I deleted it but the table remain available until your click Save in Firewall: pfBlocker: General
Do we need a Save or Apply changes button under Firewall: pfBlocker: Lists?

How/where could I apply a pfBlocker list to filter inbound traffic on a NAT-PMP port created by miniupnpd?

Try first on floating rules and go testing access with tcpdump on console.

marcelloc

Thanks for your contribution.

Do you know how often its Updated?

ipv6kid

I don't know how often the advertising blacklist is updated, it doesn't seem to be very effective. I'm the "cup half full" type of person so I block those IP's anyways.

As to the known malware IP's, I believe from looking at the commented-out time stamp within the files they look to be updated daily.

ipv6kid

Can somebody please tell me why PFblocker widget isn't showing all my block lists as being blocked?

Specifically the Russian Business Network Malverisers IP list is working however their CI Army list is not…. but the IP lists are of the same structure.

Working: http://rules.emergingthreats.net/blockrules/rbn-malvertisers-ips.txt

Not working or showing on Pfblocker widget: http://www.ciarmy.com/list/ci-badguys.txt

Please help!

marcelloc

Check first in diagnostics tables if this list was filled up.

Then check rule description for this alias rule.

Can you please explain this in further detail? I don't see alias rules for these lists, shouldn't they have been automatically made?

The pfBlocker is great! It's easy to use and very effective! Thank you!

I have 2 dumb questions.

I would like to go view the stats of what is blocked by pfBlocker. I saw your screen capture at the beginning of the pfBlocker forum. Where or how do I access this?

Again, great work!

I might make the suggestion that pfblocker uninstall runs a script to clean it out of the packages directory (and any directories it leaves behind there). While one could go to do this manually (especially if you had country block before), it makes more sense to remove the scripts and files it creates there so a reinstall will keep this type of thing from happening.

If not a BIG FAT STICKY that tells people what they need to do would probably keep these types of messages from having to be posted.

Essentially, manually remove:

/usr/local/www/packages/pfblock* and the other two related directories, especially the one with the startup script. It doesn't unintall cleanly or reinstall cleanly.

Grazman,

It's related to ip-blocklist package.
If you had removed it, maybe you need to delete this remaining script.

'/usr/local/pkg/pf/IP-Blocklist.sh'

Also look for ipblocklist scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d

Create a new list, choose action allow inbound and paste your networks in custom list.

Bummer

So you're saying my new list will over ride the other lists by default?

Also, what format to I put the IPs in? Is it listed as below?

213.238.8.10/32

Sorry to be so stupid on this.

Thanks!

marcelloc

whitelist(allow) rules are applied before blacklists(deny).

the custom list is in CIDR format, so if its only one ip address 213.238.8.10/32 is fine.

Bummer

Thank you!
