Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

iptables Cookbook

Build Status Cookbook Version

Installs iptables and provides a custom resource for adding and removing iptables rules

Requirements

Platforms

  • Ubuntu/Debian
  • RHEL/CentOS and derivatives
  • Amazon Linux

Chef

  • Chef 12.10+

Cookbooks

  • none

Recipes

default

The default recipe will install iptables and provides a ruby script (installed in /usr/sbin/rebuild-iptables) to manage rebuilding firewall rules from files dropped off in /etc/iptables.d.

disabled

The disabled recipe will install iptables, disable the iptables service (on RHEL platforms), and delete the rules directory /etc/iptables.d.

Attributes

default['iptables']['iptables_sysconfig'] and default['iptables']['ip6tables_sysconfig'] are hashes that are used to template /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config and /etc/sysconfig/ip6tables-config. The keys must be upper case and any key / value pair included will be added to the config file.

default['iptables']['system_ruby'] allows users to override the system ruby path if ruby is installed into a non standard location and Chef has been installed without an embedded ruby (eg. from the Gem).

Custom Resource

rule

The custom resource drops off a template in /etc/iptables.d after the name parameter. The rule will get added to the local system firewall through notifying the rebuild-iptables script. See Examples below.

NOTE: In the 1.0 release of this cookbook the iptables_rule definition was converted to a custom resource. This changes the behavior of disabling iptables rules. Previously a rule could be disabled by specifying enable false. You must now specify action :disable

Usage

Add recipe[iptables] to your runlist to ensure iptables is installed / running and to ensure that the rebuild-iptables script is on the system. Then create use iptables_rule to add individual rules. See Examples.

Since certain chains can be used with multiple tables (e.g., PREROUTING), you might have to include the name of the table explicitly (i.e., *nat, *mangle, etc.), so that the /usr/sbin/rebuild-iptables script can infer how to assemble final ruleset file that is going to be loaded. Please note, that unless specified otherwise, rules will be added under the filter table by default.

Examples

To enable port 80, e.g. in an my_httpd cookbook, create the following template:

# Port 80 for http
-A FWR -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT

This template would be located at: my_httpd/templates/default/http.erb. Then within your recipe call:

iptables_rule 'http' do
  action :enable
end

To redirect port 80 to local port 8080, e.g., in the aforementioned my_httpd cookbook, create the following template:

*nat
# Redirect anything on eth0 coming to port 80 to local port 8080
-A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080

Please note, that we explicitly add name of the table (being *nat in this example above) where the rules should be added.

This would most likely go in the cookbook, my_httpd/templates/default/http_8080.erb. Then to use it in recipe[httpd]:

iptables_rule 'http_8080' do
  action :enable
end

To create a rule without using a template resource use the lines property (you can optionally specify table when using lines):

iptables_rule 'http_8080' do
  lines '-A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080'
  table :nat
end

To get attribute-driven rules you can (for example) feed a hash of attributes into named iptables.d files like this:

node.default['iptables']['rules']['http_80'] = '-A FWR -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT'
node.default['iptables']['rules']['http_443'] = [
  '# an example with multiple lines',
  '-A FWR -p tcp -m tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT',
]

node['iptables']['rules'].map do |rule_name, rule_body|
  iptables_rule rule_name do
    lines [ rule_body ].flatten.join("\n")
  end
end

IPv6 supports

The iptables_rule6 provides IPv6 support with the same behavior as the original iptable_rule.

A /usr/sbin/rebuild-ip6tables script perform iptables configuration and the IPv6 rules are stored in /etc/ip6tables.d

v1.0.0 (2015-04-29)

NOTE: This release includes breaking changes to the behavior of this cookbook. The iptables_rule definition was converted to a LWRP. This changes the behavior of disabling iptables rules. Previously a rule could be disabled by specifying enable false. You must now specify action :disable. Additionally the cookbook no longer installs the out of the box iptables rules. These were rules made assumptions about the operating environment and should not have been installed out of the box. This makes this recipe a library cookbook that can be better wrapped to meet the needs or your particular environment.
- Definition converted to a LWRP to providing why-run support and
- The out of the box iptables rules are no longer installed. If you need these rules you'll need to wrap the cookbook and use the LWRP to define these same rules.
- Removed all references to the roadmap and deprecation of the cookbook. It's not going anywhere any time soon
- Use platform_family to better support Debian derivatives
- Converted file / directory modes to strings to preserve the leading 0
- Added additional RHEL derivitive distributions to the metadata
- Expanded excluded files in the gitignore and chefignore files
- Included the latest contributing documentation to match the current process
