[opensuse-security] Howto restrict number of sshd sessions per minute
by Otto Rodusek 15 Jun '10

15 Jun '10

Hi ListMates, I'm trying to resolve a problem with Susefirewall2 that I've had for some time and I'm hoping to get a resolution if possible. I'm trying this on a Dell Server T110 using opensuse linux 11.2 - uname: Linux bunyip 2.6.31.12-0.2-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2010-03-16 21:25:39 +0100 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux. I'm trying to restrict the number of sshd login attempts to only 5 per minute and no more. I've read the docs and have modified /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 (FW_SERVICES_ACCEPT_EXT="0/0,tcp,22") to (FW_SERVICES_ACCEPT_EXT="0/0,tcp,22,,hitcount=5,blockseconds=60,recentname=ssh"). If I check my logs I can still see that MANY sshd login attempts still happen within the 60 seconds. I have installed a perl program to catch and firewall those culprits BUT I would still like to know why the above code doesn't seem to work. Have I forgotten to edit something else? Any help would be much appreciated. If it helps, below is the result of the iptables -L - maybe someone can spot something here? Again much thanks for any help in this area. bunyip:/etc/sysconfig # iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy DROP) target prot opt source destination DROP all -- 60.210.8.234 anywhere DROP all --

[opensuse-security] Not attacking the problem
by Keith Hopper 11 Jun '10

11 Jun '10

This is by way of a confession - or, if you prefer, an apocryphal tale which could happen to any of us to our deep embarrasment. Recently I had a great deal of difficulty installing/updating my x86-64 machine with hardware RAID from 11.1 to 11.2. Trying to repair the system failed after failing to install 11.2 so I had to go back, re-install 11.1 and, after some fiddling, could then update to 11.2. Just at this time - when I needed access to update the distribution - my broadband modem failed catastrophically. It was quite an old one and was no longer in production - so I purchased a new one (which had the facility to disable its firewall - which I did). Quick modem configure and all was fine for updating the distribution. I had been 'off the air' for a couple of weeks doing all of this and never thought that anything further needed doing as, from my point of view, everything was working fine. Some friends then told me my web site wasn't accessible any more - so I immediately thought of SuSEfirewall problems as the way of configuring it had changed slightly from 11.1. I have recently spent several days battling to get the rest of the world to see my machine - ending up by reading all of the available guides and examples. I found that I should have made one manual addition to the SuSEfirewall2 file - but even that didn't succeed in making my machine accessible from 'outside' my private LAN. If some of you are grinning widely by now I shall not be surprised! Yes! I had forgotten that the problem was not just a continuation of the difficulties I had been having with SuSE 11.2 - it was a connection problem and that involved the new broadband modem too! A flash of 'inspiration' occurred to me in bed last night and I almost yelled out - 'what about the modem?' Indeed, this new modem insisted that every individual port had to have port forwarding enabled specifically to the server machine. I opened the necessary ports and all worked as expected - the machine is visible. I hope this never happens to any of you -but then you are all experts (sigh! - I used to be one, obviously!), aren't you?

[opensuse-security] LUKS / DM-CRYPT how to determine used slots?
by Malte Gell 06 Jun '10

06 Jun '10

Hello, I have just added a key file to my encrypted partition that i use on a USB stick, so i don't have to enter a password at every boot. So I now have two slots used on that partition, a key file and the previous used password. How can I generally find out how many slots are used on an encrypted partition? The man page of cryptsetup is silent about this.

[opensuse-security] php5 update for 10.2 breaks gallery
by Stefan Seyfried 01 Jun '10

01 Jun '10

Hi, just to let everyone know: the 5.3.2 update breaks my gallery2 installation thoroughly, it's segfaulting all the time. Downgrading to 5.3.1 from the update repo fixes it. -- Stefan Seyfried "Any ideas, John?"
