Package: fail2ban
Version: 0.8.6-3wheezy3
Severity: minor
Hello,
If you enable the apache-overflows jail, fail2ban reports the following:
fail2ban.actions.action: ERROR iptables -N fail2ban-apache-overflows
iptables -A fail2ban-apache-overflows -j RETURN
iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp -m multiport --dports http,https -j
fail2ban-apache-overflows
iptables -N fail2ban-apache-overflows-log
iptables -I fail2ban-apache-overflows-log -j LOG --log-prefix "$(expr
fail2ban-apache-overflows : '\(.\{1,23\}\)'):DROP " --log-level warning -m
limit --limit 6/m --limit-burst 2
iptables -A fail2ban-apache-overflows-log -j DROP returned 200
this is because chain name must be shorter than 29 characters:
# iptables -N fail2ban-apache-overflows-log
iptables v1.4.14: chain name `fail2ban-apache-overflows-log' too long (must be
under 29 chars)
Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.
The solution here is to rename the jail to something shorter.
Best regards,
Ghostdog
