This works as designed in 4.5.

However, from a user perspective, if we have an "allow all" to egress, a
user would add a drop for a single port, but then anything else is also
blocked. The current implementation does not determine, if the rule
added is allow or blocked.

"default allow" and "default deny" already exists in 4.5 as well.

Makes sense,

This works as designed. H

owever, the issue I see here is that the behaviour for exising rules
changed. This can potentially lead to a security hole. In 4.5 we had an
implicit "block all egress when one rule", after 4.5 we have no such rule.

One can arg for or against this "behaviour". The choice should be up to
a cloudstack admin, and it would be best if this can be configured. That
is why using the egressdefaultpolicy makes sense.

I don't see why there should be any confusion at all. If you would like
to keep the behaviour currently in 4.9, you just set
egressdefaultpolicy=true. voila.

It is flexible but the default has changed. a cloudstack admin should
have the choice.

Re: POLL: ACL default egress policy rule in VPC

2017-11-13 Thread Jayapal Uradi
Hi Rene,

Please look at my inline comments.
Let me add some context for the VPC egress/ingress rules behavior.

Pre 4.5 (subject to correction) the behavior of VPC acl is as follows.

1. Default egress is ALLOW and ingress is DROP.
   a.  When a rule is added to egress then that particular rule traffic is 
allowed and rest is blocked in egress.
   b.  When a rule is added to ingress then that particular rule traffic is 
allowed and rest is blocked in egress.

After 4.5 ACL lists and ACL items feature is introduced there we have ‘default 
allow’ and ‘default deny’ ACLs. User can also
create a custom acl. In ACL feature we can add mix of allow and deny rules and 
the ordering of rules is maintained.

1.  when ‘default allow’ is selected while creating the vpc tier
By default traffic is ALLOWED and rules can be added to ALLOW/DENY the 
traffic
   After adding the rules there will be ACCEPT at the end
2.  when ‘default deny’ is selected while creating the vpc tier
By default traffic is DENY and rules can be added to DENY/ALLOW the traffic.
  After adding the rules there will be DROP at the end
3. If no ACL selected for the ACL then Pre 4.5 behavior will be there.
4. With custom acl default ingress is DROP and egress is ALLOW. User can add 
rules for allow/deny rules.

If you see behavior other than above then there will be bug.

Currently in VPC egress behavior is controlled from the ACLs. If include  
‘egressdefaultpolicy’ then there will be confusion.

What I feel is that current VPC ACLs are flexible enough  to configure the 
required behavior.

Thanks,
Jayapal

This is seen because default egress is drop and user added rule to deny port 25 
traffic.
User has choice of adding allow/deny rules with priority number.

In 4.9 it is a bug. After accept rules there supposed to DROP all at the end.

Re: POLL: ACL default egress policy rule in VPC

2017-11-13 Thread Wei ZHOU
I agree with (3).

To achieve backward compatibility, we need to add an egress rule to allow
ALL on existing ACLs which do not contain any egress rule.

For now almost every one uses integrated network offerings for VPC networks:
DefaultIsolatedNetworkOfferingForVpcNetworks
DefaultIsolatedNetworkOfferingForVpcNetworksNoLB
DefaultIsolatedNetworkOfferingForVpcNetworksWithInternalLB

The default egress policy are "Deny" in all network offerings above.
