|
ver. 0.7.0 (2006/08/23) - alpha |
|
---------- |
|
- Almost a complete rewrite :) Fail2ban design is really better (IMHO). There is |
|
a lot of new features |
|
- Client/Server architecture |
|
- Multithreading. Each jail has its own threads: one for the log reading and |
|
another for the actions |
|
- Execute several actions |
|
- Split configuration files. They are more readable and easy to use |
|
- failregex uses group (<host>) now. This feature was already present in the |
|
Debian package |
|
- lots of things... |
|
|
|
ver. 0.6.1 (2006/03/16) - stable |
|
---------- |
|
- Added permanent banning. Set banTime to a negative value to enable this |
|
feature (-1 is perfect). Thanks to Mannone |
|
- Fixed locale bug. Thanks to Fernando José |
|
- Fixed crash when time format does not match data |
|
- Propagated patch from Debian to fix fail2ban search path addition to the path |
|
search list: now it is added first. Thanks to Nick Craig-Wood |
|
- Added SMTP authentification for mail notification. Thanks to Markus Hoffmann |
|
- Removed debug mode as it is confusing for people |
|
- Added parsing of timestamp in TAI64N format (#1275325). Thanks to Mark |
|
Edgington |
|
- Added patch #1382936 (Default formatted syslog logging). Thanks to Patrick |
|
Börjesson |
|
- Removed 192.168.0.0/16 from ignoreip. Attacks could also come from the local |
|
network. |
|
- Robust startup: if iptables module does not get fully initialized after |
|
startup of fail2ban, fail2ban will do "maxreinit" attempts to initialize its |
|
own firewall. It will sleep between attempts for "polltime" number of seconds |
|
(closes Debian: #334272). Thanks to Yaroslav Halchenko |
|
- Added "interpolations" in fail2ban.conf. This is provided by the ConfigParser |
|
module. Old configuration files still work. Thanks to Yaroslav Halchenko |
|
- Added initial support for hosts.deny and shorewall. Need more testing. Please |
|
test. Thanks to kojiro from Gentoo forum for hosts.deny support |
|
- Added support for vsftpd. Thanks to zugeschmiert |
|

|
---------- |

|
automatic restart of fail2ban main function in case check of fwban or |
|
fwunban command failed (closes: #329163, #331695). (Introduced patch was |
|
further adjusted by upstream author). |
|
* Added -f command line parameter for [findtime]. |
|
* Added a cleanup of firewall rules on emergency shutdown when unknown |
|
exception is catched. |
|
* Fail2ban should not crash now if a wrong file name is specified in config. |
|
* reordered code a bit so that log targets are setup right after background |
|
and then only loglevel (verbose, debug) is processed, so the warning could |
|
be seen in the logs |
|
* Added a keyword <section> in parsing of the subject and the body of an email |
|
sent out by fail2ban (closes: #330311) |
|

|
