feature request (gh-867): new options for jail introduced addfailregex/addignoreregex: extends regex specified in filter (opposite to failregex/ignoreregex that overwrites it);
• Do not install the following configuration files which are not used within the
Debian package of fail2ban:
/etc/fail2ban/paths-fedora.conf
/etc/fail2ban/paths-freebsd.conf
/etc/fail2ban/paths-osx.conf
Closes: Debian bug #767123 (https://bugs.debian.org/767123).
Signed-off-by: Christoph Anton Mitterer <mail@christoph.anton.mitterer.name>
test cases: extended with test to check action together with database functionality (ex.: to verify lambdas in checkBan);
database: getBansMerged should work within lock, using reentrant lock (cause call of getBans inside of getBansMerged);
ver. 0.9.1 (2014/10/29) - better, faster, stronger
----------
- Refactoring (IMPORTANT -- Please review your setup and configuration):
* iptables-common.conf replaced iptables-blocktype.conf
(iptables-blocktype.local should still be read) and now also
provides defaults for the chain, port, protocol and name tags
- Fixes:
* start of file2ban aborted (on slow hosts, systemd considers the server has
been timed out and kills him), see gh-824
* UTF-8 fixes in pure-ftp thanks to Johannes Weberhofer. Closes gh-806.
* systemd backend error on bad utf-8 in python3
* badips.py action error when logging HTTP error raised with badips request
* fail2ban-regex failed to work in python3 due to space/tab mix
* recidive regex samples incorrect log level
* journalmatch for recidive incorrect PRIORITY
* loglevel couldn't be changed in fail2ban.conf
* Handle case when no sqlite library is available for persistent database
* Only reban once per IP from database on fail2ban restart
* Nginx filter to support missing server_name. Closes gh-676
* fail2ban-regex assertion error caused by miscount missed lines with
multiline regex
* Fix actions failing to execute for Python 3.4.0. Workaround for
http://bugs.python.org/issue21207
* Database now returns persistent bans on restart (bantime < 0)
* Recursive action tags now fully processed. Fixes issue with bsd-ipfw
action
* Fixed TypeError with "ipfailures" and "ipjailfailures" action tags.
Thanks Serg G. Brester
* Correct times for non-timezone date times formats during DST
* Pass a copy of, not original, aInfo into actions to avoid side-effects
* Per-distribution paths to the exim's main log
* Ignored IPs are no longer banned when being restored from persistent
database
* Manually unbanned IPs are now removed from persistent database, such they
wont be banned again when Fail2Ban is restarted
* Pass "bantime" parameter to the actions in default jail's action
definition(s)
* filters.d/sieve.conf - fixed typo in _daemon. Thanks Jisoo Park
* cyrus-imap -- also catch also failed logins via secured (imaps/pop3s).
Regression was introduced while strengthening failregex in 0.8.11 (bd175f)
Debian bug #755173
* postfix-sasl - added journalmatch. Thanks Luc Maisonobe
* postfix* - match with a new daemon string (postfix/submission/smtpd).
Closes gh-804 . Thanks Paul Traina
* apache - added filter for AH01630 client denied by server configuration.
- New features:
- New filters:
- monit Thanks Jason H Martin
- directadmin Thanks niorg
- apache-shellshock Thanks Eugene Hopkinson (SlowRiot)
- New actions:
- symbiosis-blacklist-allports for Bytemark symbiosis firewall
- fail2ban-client can fetch the running server version
- Added Cloudflare API action
- Enhancements
* Start performance of fail2ban-client (and tests) increased, start time
and cpu usage rapidly reduced. Introduced a shared storage logic, to
bypass reading lots of config files (see gh-824).
Thanks to Joost Molenaar for good catch (reported gh-820).
* Fail2ban-regex - add print-all-matched option. Closes gh-652
* Suppress fail2ban-client warnings for non-critical config options
* Match non "Bye Bye" disconnect messages for sshd locked account regex
* courier-smtp filter:
- match lines with user names
- match lines containing "535 Authentication failed" attempts
* Add <chain> tag to iptables-ipsets
* Realign fail2ban log output with white space to improve readability. Does
not affect SYSLOG output
* Log unhandled exceptions
* cyrus-imap: catch "user not found" attempts
* Add support for Portsentry

ENH: additional versioning changes
Refreshed manpages
ENH: fail early in generate-man + provide PYTHONPATH upstairs
Changes for the 0.9.1 release versioning
Populated MANIFEST with more entries which were preiously missed or duplicated. Sorted within each "section"
Add portsentry to changelog
ConfigReader.touch renamed into protected _create_unshared
DOC: documentation about available vagrantfile setup
Added myself into THANKS
DOC: adjust docs in mytime to place docs into docstrings
ENH: do use @staticmethod (we are well beyond support of 2.4 now)
testExecuteTimeout fixed: give a test still 1 second, because system could be too busy
coverage: no cover (for failed except)
fix: fail2ban-regex with filter file failed (after merging #824, because test case missing); test case for 'readexplicit' added;
ENH: remove obsolete code for python < 2.6 (we support >= 2.6)
DOC: very minor (tabs/spaces)
We better check that installation doesn't cause any errors as well
code review, change log entries added;
reset share/cache storage (if we use 'reload' in client with interactive mode)
normalize tabs/spaces in docstrings;
