psad.conf

#
##############################################################################
#
#  This is the configuration file for psad (the Port Scan Attack Detector).
#  Normally this file gets installed at /etc/psad/psad.conf, but can be put
#  anywhere in the filesystem and then the path can be specified on the
#  command line argument "-c <file>" to psad.  All three psad daemons (psad,
#  kmsgsd, and psadwatchd) reference this config file.
#
#  Each line has the form  "<variable name>    <value>;".  Note the semi-
#  colon after the <value>.  All characters after the semicolon will be
#  ignored to provide space for comments.

### Supports multiple email addresses (as a comma separated
### list).
EMAIL_ADDRESSES             juanchiviotti@gmail.com,gastonroca@gmail.com;

### Machine hostname
HOSTNAME                    transportecabo;

### Specify the home and external networks.  Note that by default the
### ENABLE_INTF_LOCAL_NETS is enabled, so psad automatically detects
### all of the directly connected subnets and uses this information as
### the HOME_NET variable.
HOME_NET                    any;
EXTERNAL_NET                any;

### The FW_SEARCH_ALL variable controls has psad will parse iptables
### messages.  If it is set to "Y" then psad will parse all iptables
### messages for evidence of scan activity.  If it is set to "N" then
### psad will only parse those iptables messages that contain logging
### prefixes specified by the FW_MSG_SEARCH variable below.  Logging
### prefixes are set with the --log-prefix command line option to iptables.
### Setting FW_SEARCH_ALL to "N" is useful for having psad only analyze
### iptables messages that are logged out of a specific iptables chain
### (multiple strings can be searched for, see the comment above the
### FW_MSG_SEARCH variable below) or a specific logging rule for example.
### FW_SEARCH_ALL is set to "Y" by default since usually people want psad
### to parse all iptables messages.
FW_SEARCH_ALL               Y;

### The FW_MSG_SEARCH variable can be modified to look for logging messages
### that are specific to your firewall configuration (specified by the
### "--log-prefix" option.  For example, if your firewall uses the
### string "Audit" for packets that have been blocked, then you could
### set FW_MSG_SEARCH to "Audit";  The default string to search for is
### "DROP".  Both psad and kmsgsd reference this file.  NOTE: You can
### specify this variable multiple times to have psad search for multiple
### strings.  For example to have psad search for the strings "Audit" and
### "Reject", you would use the following two lines:
#FW_MSG_SEARCH               Audit;
#FW_MSG_SEARCH               REJECT;
FW_MSG_SEARCH               DROP;

### Set the type of syslog daemon that is used.  The SYSLOG_DAEMON
### variable accepts four possible values: syslogd, syslog-ng, ulogd,
### or metalog.
SYSLOG_DAEMON               syslogd;

### What type of interface configuration do you use?  This this variable to
### "iproute2" if you want to use the iproute2 type configuration.
### iproute2 does not use aliases for multi-homed interfaces and
### ifconfig does not show secondary addresses for multi-homed interfaces.
#IFCFGTYPE  iproute2;
IFCFGTYPE                   ifconfig;

### Danger levels.  These represent the total number of
### packets required for a scan to reach each danger level.
### A scan may also reach a danger level if the scan trips
### a signature or if the scanning ip is listed in
### auto_ips so a danger level is automatically
### assigned.
DANGER_LEVEL1               5;    ### Number of packets.
DANGER_LEVEL2               15;
DANGER_LEVEL3               150;
DANGER_LEVEL4               1500;
DANGER_LEVEL5               10000;

### Set the interval (in seconds) psad will use to sleep before
### checking for new iptables log messages
CHECK_INTERVAL              5;

### Search for snort "sid" values generated by fwsnort
### or snort2iptables
SNORT_SID_STR               SID;

### Set the minimum range of ports that must be scanned before
### psad will send an alert.  The default is 1 so that at
### least two port must be scanned (p2-p1 >= 1).  This can be set
### to 0 if you want psad to be extra paranoid, or 30000 if not.
PORT_RANGE_SCAN_THRESHOLD   1;

### If "Y", means that scans will never timeout.  This is useful
### for catching scans that take place over long periods of time
### where the attacker is trying to slip beneath the IDS thresholds.
ENABLE_PERSISTENCE          Y;

### This is used only if ENABLE_PERSISTENCE = "N";
SCAN_TIMEOUT                3600;  ### seconds

### If "Y", means all signatures will be shown since
### the scan started instead of just the current ones.
SHOW_ALL_SIGNATURES         N;

### Allow reporting methods to be enabled/restricted.  This keyword can
### accept values of "nosyslog" (don't write any messages to syslog),
### "noemail" (don't send any email messages), or "ALL" (to generate both
### syslog and email messages).  "ALL" is the default.  Both "nosyslog"
### and "noemail" can be combined with a comma to disable all logging
### and alerting.
ALERTING_METHODS            ALL;

### By default, psad acquires iptables log data from the /var/log/psad/fwdata
### file which is written to by kmsgsd.  However, psad can just read an
### existing file that syslog writes iptables log data to (commonly
### /var/log/messages).  On some systems, having syslog communicate log data
### to kmsgsd can be problematic (syslog configs and external factors such
### as Apparmor and SELinux can play a role here), so using this feature can
### simplify a psad deployment.
ENABLE_SYSLOG_FILE          Y;
IPT_WRITE_FWDATA            Y;
IPT_SYSLOG_FILE             /var/log/messages;

### When enabled, this instructs psad to write the "msg" field
### associated with Snort rule matches to syslog.
ENABLE_SIG_MSG_SYSLOG       Y;
SIG_MSG_SYSLOG_THRESHOLD    10;
SIG_SID_SYSLOG_THRESHOLD    10;

### TTL values are decremented depending on the number of hops
### the packet has taken before it hits the firewall.  We will
### assume packets will not jump through more than 20 hops on
### average.
MAX_HOPS                    20;

### Do not include any timestamp included within kernel logging
### messages (Ubuntu systems commonly have this)
IGNORE_KERNEL_TIMESTAMP     Y;

### FIXME: try to mitigate the affects of the iptables connection
### tracking bug by ignoring tcp packets that have the ack bit set.
### Read the "BUGS" section of the psad man page.  Note that
### if a packet matches a snort SID generated by fwsnort (see
### http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwsnort/)
### then psad will see it even if the ack bit is set.  See the
### SNORT_SID_STR variable.
IGNORE_CONNTRACK_BUG_PKTS   Y;

### define a set of ports to ignore (this is useful particularly
### for port knocking applications since the knock sequence will
### look to psad like a scan).  This variable may be defined as
### a comma-separated list of port numbers or port ranges and
### corresponding protocol,  For example, to have psad ignore all
### tcp in the range 61000-61356 and udp ports 53 and 5000, use:
### IGNORE_PORTS        tcp/61000-61356, udp/53, udp/5000;
IGNORE_PORTS                NONE;

### allow entire protocols to be ignored.  This keyword can accept
### a comma separated list of protocols.  Each protocol must match
### the protocol that is specified in a Netfilter log message (case
### insensitively, so both "TCP" or "tcp" is ok).
### IGNORE_PROTOCOL             tcp,udp;
IGNORE_PROTOCOLS            NONE;

### allow packets to be ignored based on interface (this is the

IGNORE_INTERFACES           NONE;

### Ignore these specific logging prefixes
IGNORE_LOG_PREFIXES         NONE;

### Minimum danger level a scan must reach before any logging or
### alerting is done.  The EMAIL_ALERT_DANGER_LEVEL variable below
### only refers to email alerts; the MIN_DANGER_LEVEL variable
### applies to everything from email alerts to whether or not the
### IP directory is created within /var/log/psad/.  Hence
### MIN_DANGER_LEVEL should be set less than or equal to the value
### assigned to the EMAIL_ALERT_DANGER_LEVEL variable.
MIN_DANGER_LEVEL            1;

### Only send email alert if danger level >= to this value.
EMAIL_ALERT_DANGER_LEVEL    1;

### Treat all subnets on local interfaces as part of HOME_NET (this
### means that these networks do not have to be manually defined)
ENABLE_INTF_LOCAL_NETS      Y;

### Include MAC addresses in email alert
ENABLE_MAC_ADDR_REPORTING   N;

### Look for the Netfilter logging rule (fwcheck_psad is executed)
ENABLE_FW_LOGGING_CHECK     Y;

### Send no more than this number of emails for a single
### scanning source IP.  Note that enabling this feature may cause
### alerts for real attacks to not be generated if an attack is sent
### after the email threshold has been reached for an IP address.
### This is why the default is set to "0".
EMAIL_LIMIT                 0;

### By default, psad maintains a counter for each scanning source address,
### but by enabling this variable psad will maintain email counters for
### each victim address that is scanned as well.
ENABLE_EMAIL_LIMIT_PER_DST  N;

### If "Y", send a status email message when an IP has reached the
### EMAIL_LIMIT threshold.
EMAIL_LIMIT_STATUS_MSG      Y;

### If "Y", send email for all newly logged packets from the same
### source ip instead of just when a danger level increases.
ALERT_ALL                   Y;

### If "Y", then psad will import old scan source ip directories
### as current scans instead of moving the directories into the
### archive directory.
IMPORT_OLD_SCANS            N;

### syslog facility and priority (the defaults are usually ok)
### The SYSLOG_FACILITY variable can be set to one of LOG_LOCAL{0-7}, and

### Specify chain names to which iptables blocking rules will be
### added with the IPT_AUTO_CHAIN{n} keyword.  There is no limit on the
### number of IPT_AUTO_CHAIN{n} keywords; just increment the {n} number
### to add an additional IPT_AUTO_CHAIN requirement. The format for this
### variable is: <Target>,<Direction>,<Table>,<From_chain>,<Jump_rule_position>, \
###              <To_chain>,<Rule_position>.
### "Target": Can be any legitimate Netfilter target, but should usually
###           just be "DROP".
### "Direction": Can be "src", "dst", or "both", which correspond to the
###              INPUT, OUTPUT, and FORWARD chains.
### "Table": Can be any Netfilter table, but the default is "filter".
### "From_chain": Is the chain from which packets will be jumped.
### "Jump_rule_position": Defines the position within the From_chain where
###                       the jump rule is added.
### "To_chain": Is the chain to which packets will be jumped. This is the
###             main chain where psad rules are added.
### "Rule_position": Defines the position where rule are added within the
###                  To_chain.
###
### The following defaults make sense for most installations, but note
### it is possible to include blocking rules in, say, the "nat" table
### using this functionality as well.  The following three lines provide
