Nginx Web Application Firewall: NAXSI FreeBSD

Installation from pkg

pkg install nginx-naxsi

Installation from source

Naxsi should be working with all Nginx versions superior to 0.8.X. To install it from source, we need to fetch both nginx and naxsi sources.

 wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-x.x.xx.tar.gz or /usr/port/www/nginx-naxsi/
 make config
 make install

Install manual
 wget https://github.com/nbs-system/naxsi/archive/xxx.tar.gz
 tar xvzf nginx-x.x.xx.tar.gz 
 tar xvzf naxsi-x.xx.tar.gz
 cd nginx-x.x.xx/

[install]

cd /usr/port/www/nginx-naxsi/

make config

make install

lalu  ceklist naxsi

jika nginx sudah terinstall duluan, add module

 ./configure --add-module=../naxsi-x.xx/naxsi_src/ [add/remove your favorite/usual options]
 make
 make install

 

Nginx Web Application Firewall: Initial setup

Let’s take the first step to use : setting up learning mode for your website ! This page assumes you already know how to properly configure nginx without naxsi and make it work. /etc/nginx/nginx.conf :

 user                www-data;
 worker_processes    1;
 worker_rlimit_core  500M;
 working_directory   /tmp/; 
 error_log           /var/log/nginx/error.log;
 pid                 /var/run/nginx.pid; 
 events {
     worker_connections 1024;
     use epoll;
     # multi_accept on;
 }
 http {
     include                        /etc/nginx/naxsi_core.rules;
     include                        /etc/nginx/mime.types;
     server_names_hash_bucket_size  128;
     access_log                     /var/log/nginx/access.log;
     sendfile                       on;
     keepalive_timeout              65;
     tcp_nodelay                    on;
     gzip                           on;
     gzip_disable                   "MSIE [1-6]\.(?!.*SV1)";
     include                        /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
 }

Notice the /etc/nginx/naxsi_core.rules include. This is the only thing you need to add to your existing `http {}` section if you already have a configuration. naxsi_core.rules is provided in the project (naxsi_config/), and contains naxsi rules. As you might notice, these are not signatures, in the classic WAF sense, but simple “score rules”, ie :

 MainRule "str:\"" "msg:double quote" "mz:BODY|URL|ARGS|$HEADERS_VAR:Cookie" "s:$SQL:8,$XSS:8" id:1001;

You can see more about rules syntax at rulessyntax Now, let’s have a look at /etc/nginx/site-enabled/default :

 server {
     proxy_set_header  Proxy-Connection "";
     listen            *:80;
     access_log        /tmp/nginx_access.log;
     error_log         /tmp/nginx_error.log debug;   
     location / {
          include           /etc/nginx/naxsi.rules;
          proxy_pass        http://x.x.x.x/;
          proxy_set_header  Host www.mysite.com;
     }
     location /RequestDenied {
         return 418;
     }
 }

The naxsi’s configuration itself is in the file /etc/nginx/naxsi.rules :

 LearningMode; #Enables learning mode
 SecRulesEnabled;
 #SecRulesDisabled;
 DeniedUrl "/RequestDenied";
 ## check rules
 CheckRule "$SQL >= 8" BLOCK;
 CheckRule "$RFI >= 8" BLOCK;
 CheckRule "$TRAVERSAL >= 4" BLOCK;
 CheckRule "$EVADE >= 4" BLOCK;
 CheckRule "$XSS >= 8" BLOCK;

With the following setup :

  • Naxsi will be enabled
  • Naxsi will not block any requests (while LearningMode is active)
  • To-be-blocked requests will generate event logs in your location’s error.log file

Exception do look like (let’s request http://127.0.0.1/?a=%3C)

 2013/05/30 20:09:43 [error] 8404#0:*3 NAXSI_FMT: ip=127.0.0.1&server=127.0.0.1&uri=/&learning=0&vers=0.50&total_processed=3&total_blocked=1&zone0=ARGS&id0=1302&var_name0=a, client: 127.0.0.1, server: , request: "GET /?a=< HTTP/1.0", host: "127.0.0.1"

Once you get this kind of lines in your error log, you have naxsi running in [LearningMode], congrats !
