I signed up with Lunarpages a while back for a dedicated server for my business. Good price, managed hosting rocks, decent disk space... little problem once with a huge power outage, but **** happens, cool.
All is well until I wake up this morning to an email a minute about a failed cron job. It smells fishy, so I contact LUnar pages support to see whats up.
They inform me that some asswad had managed to brute force into my server using a temporary account I set up a while back for some tech support. (I prefaced this with 'im an idiot', so no you know why)
Either way, my server now has a rootkit, plus other **** im sure im not aware of... so they propose to move me to a brand new fresh box. im thinking they are gonna charge me a fee for this, a fee for that... no way. All is free of charge.
Im ****ting kittens now.
so im resetting everything up, and i manage to look myself out of my database...(i told you I was an idiot.. and this was a looooong day already)
they fix it. again. no problem...
If you are looking for a dedicated server, go to lunarpages. otherwise you are a freaking idiot as far as I am concerned...
Lunarpages, I love you, I want your babies...
PS: I am in no way affiliated with lunarpages... however, if they want to give me a free year on their servers, i wouldnt complain... *hint hint*
One of my low knowledge area's is Iptables Rule's I just normally use APF/CSF.
However on a VPS Host node, I basically want to block all access to a certain port let's say 1234 apart from a certain IP address.
However I don't want to block this port on any of the VPS's on the Node, so what Iptable Rule(s) would I need to put into a bash script on startup.
Is it possible to disable a particular mod_security rule for particular directory or the rules are global?

Can someone share what rules you are using to secure your shared servers. Have tried a few different sets of rules, but a few customers always end up with errors and disabling it for their domain name doesn't sound like a safer option for them or the server.
Share your mod_sec 2 rules.

I had csf firewall installed, and due to my own stupidity, attempted to login with the wrong password one too many times, which added my IP to iptables, locking me out. I had to SSH into a linux box at school, and then ssh into my server to stop the iptables service so I could get into my server.
I removed every trace of my IP that I could find in csf, but sometime in the middle of the night, iptables reloads some rules from somewhere that blocks me again. I also tried doing iptables -F to clear all rules, but again, sometime in the middle of the night, rules are reloaded and I get blocked. I even uninstalled csf to no avail. I just want to remove my IP once and for all.
We were recently hacked on our dedicated server and the hacker managed to insert php files that generated thousands of doorway pages in one of our images folder on our site. We have done an extensive cleanup of our site, removing all malicious files and are locking down the server. We have already updated to the latest versions of PHP and Wordpress,not to mention change all database passwords and admin password. My question is about mod_security for apache.
We were told Mod_security can prevent this from happening again but it must be configured correctly.
We have already set rules for mod_security. The rules set up are in the files in the directory, /etc/httpd/modsecurity.d/modsec. We were told that the file 10_asl_rules.conf specifically has filters to prevent SQL injection attacks.
These are are current rules:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
/etc/httpd/modsecurity.d/modsec
# ls
05_asl_exclude.conf 30_asl_antispam.conf domain-blacklist-local.txt malware-blacklist.txt
05_asl_scanner.conf 30_asl_antispam_referrer.conf domain-blacklist.txt sql.txt
10_asl_antimalware.conf 40_asl_apache2-rules.conf domain-spam-whitelist.conf trusted-domains.conf

20_asl_useragents.conf 99_asl_exclude.conf malware-blacklist-local.txt
30_asl_antimalware.conf 99_asl_jitp.conf malware-blacklist-low.txt
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I can do to prevent this or tune up apache mod_security from letting this happen again. We are so paranoid that we are now checking our access log files for POST commands every day?
Im using a vps with centos 5 and cpanel/whm with apache 2.2.
Im tring to figure out how to use the gotroot rules with mod_security. I had enabled mod_security with easy apache. I tried to follow some other post had I found around on other forums with no luck really, with that said I am a linux noob. I had tried to follow the wiki on atomic sites <-- not enof post so I cant do links sorry, but I found it hard to under stand cause I dont have a modsecurity.config file that I can find, also I cant find AddModule mod_security.c in my httpd.config, but I did find this line, Include "/usr/local/apache/conf/modsec2.conf". My thing is im looking for a complete noob guide on how to use gotroot rules with mod_security enabled through easy apache, or would it be easyer to manully install mod_security?

These new "rules" make BFD ban faster, checks every minute. BFD only checked every 10 minutes and could miss attackers that show up at the right time. Now we keep 10 minutes of IPs, and ban using that list.
I feel that APF and BFD are still the best choices for protecting my server. Cpanel's new "cphulk" feature has a lot more to go to be as good, plus you have total control with BFD where you can add and change rules to suit your needs as they grow, or modify them for particular problems.
The changes I made are based on the latest version of BFD V0.9, you should have that version installed and WORKING ALREADY.
Remember, they are simply shell scripts that define the log file to keep track of and what keywords to trigger on. You can view them with any text reader.
WARNING: These work for me, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, always make sure you add your current IP in /usr/local/bfd/ignore.hosts (and) /etc/apf/allow_hosts.rules so you don't accidentally ban yourself!
Inside the below tar.gz file are my modified "rules" files for exim, pure-ftpd, rh_imap, rh_pop3, sendmail and sshd. No changes to the BFD V0.9 main program are needed.
You should change the cron job to run BFD every minute, edit this file:
/etc/cron.d/bfd
Change the line in that file to this so it runs every minute:
*/1 * * * * root /usr/local/sbin/bfd -q
I checked the CPU load and since it's reading only a small part of the log file every minute, the CPU load isn't bad, it's done in about 8 seconds on my system. Expect a small rise in load average since it is doing work more often.
The "rules" files are contained in your server directory:
/usr/local/bfd/rules
The "rules" files should be REPLACED with the new ones, if you want to keep the old ones around then MOVE THEM OUT to another directory NOT INSIDE the "rules" directory, or else they will be run when BFD runs.
If you need apache, proftpd or other "rules" then you will have to modify them yourself, otherwise you should move these out of the "rules" DIRECTORY, they will not do much with BFD set to run every minute (unless you modify them yourself). I only modified the rules I needed for my server, feel free to post your own mods here.
OK enough, here's the file:
[url]
(it's also attached to this message, see below)
This file will only be around for a few months on this free upload site. Someone please put it in a good place/mirror and post a link, thanks.
Technical details:
This runs every minute but keeps a list of the last 10 minutes of bad IPs in a file in tmp, trimming the file every minute so only new IPs are saved.
You can see the list of IPs in files such as:
/usr/local/bfd/tmp/.exim
/usr/local/bfd/tmp/.sshd
The marker "----" (four dashes) is used to mark each minute and is ignored by BFD but used to trim the old IPs off the file.
If the number of "----" are more than 10, it trims the top of the file up to the marker every run. If the file doesn't exist it's created.
The exim filter "grep" part was modified slightly because the old one was producing bad data every once and a while. The others are all the default filters that come with V0.9.
(BFD people feel free to add this to the next version update, I consider it GPL)
my server have problem with login to ftp
i ask of cpanel,cpanel answer :
Howdy,
Are you using any kind of external firewalling? I have enabled the passive
ports in pure-ftpd and attempted to connect in passive mode, but it still
fails.
and
Howdy,
You should allow connections on 30000 through 50000 for passive ftp

With this whole no-www thing going on. I've decided to have a look at whether I can do this for my domains.
Instead of writing a
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ h77p://domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
for every single domain I'd like to do this for across all domains as standard. I'm not too hot on rewrite rules and have in the past avoided them cos of the complexities. But I'd like to get this done, and no silently do it, but reflect the URL difference in the webbrowsers address bar too.
I use APF and APF is working with iptables , when I define a large number of IPs in deny_hosts.rules or allow_hosts.rules and restart the APF , iptables begins to display errors after applying some number of rules , I have set SET_TRIM="0" in APF , so the number of APF rules is unlimited and the error is from iptables.
Is there any setting in iptables config files for maximum number of rules?
Is it unlimited and depends only on system available memory? O/S , ...?
Anyone can give me good rules for apache 2.2.6 / Cpanel , i'm new with this, i've use Apache 1.3.x before.

I found this rule to detect URI's for the c99 shell.
#new kit
SecFilterSelective REQUEST_URI "/c99shell.txt"
SecFilterSelective REQUEST_URI "/c99.txt?"
My problem is that the hackers are being more stealthy and calling the
script some random name like .../myphpstuff.php. So the URI no longer helps detect it.
How could I detect "c99shell" in the actual file that apache servers? This assumes that the hacker was successfully in installing it.

I have a VPS (Virtuozzo) with cPanel installed. I notice that iptables running in the VPS had many DROP rules when I listed using iptables -nL command. So I flushed iptabled using "iptables -F" command and also "> /etc/sysconfig/iptables" command and restarted iptabled. When I try to list the rules it would show empty. However when I try to list after a few minutes it is showing the same old rules with many DROP rules yet again! Is there anyway to remove the rules completely?
