Bug#784072: fail2ban recidive jail no longer works

2021-10-13 Thread Mike Gerber

Control: severity -1 normal
Control: fixed -1 0.11.2-2

This is working in at least bullseye/stable, using this configuration in 
jail.local:



[recidive]
enabled = true
backend = pyinotify
#bantime = 1d


(That you need to configure "backend = pyinotify" is another issue, I'll 
open another bug for this.)




Bug#784072: fail2ban recidive jail no longer works

2015-05-02 Thread James Bottomley
Package: fail2ban
Version: 0.9.1-1
Severity: important

the recidive jail is spewing lines into fail2ban.log like this

2015-05-02 11:30:38,076 fail2ban.action [26155]: ERROR   iptables -N 
f2b-recidive
iptables -A f2b-recidive -j RETURN
iptables -I INPUT -p all -m multiport --dports all -j f2b-recidive -- stderr: 
b"iptables v1.4.21: multiport needs `-p tcp', `-p udp', `-p udplite', `-p sctp' 
or `-p dccp'\nTry `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.\n"
2015-05-02 11:30:38,077 fail2ban.action [26155]: ERROR   iptables -N 
f2b-recidive
iptables -A f2b-recidive -j RETURN
iptables -I INPUT -p all -m multiport --dports all -j f2b-recidive -- returned 2

The reason seems to be this in jail.conf

[recidive]
logpath  = /var/log/fail2ban.log
port = all
protocol = all
...

adding a jail.local entry

[recidive]
enabled = true
banaction = iptables-allports

fixes the error, so perhaps this last line should be in jail.conf
