SuperITMan/fail2ban

About

Available on Docker Hub: superitman/fail2ban

A simple container with Fail2Ban installed inside to use in docker environment.

This is compatible with docker web hosts. For this, you should use action docker-iptables-multiport which works as iptables-multiport

The current installed version is fail2ban-0.8.13-1 (latest one available on Debian Jessie repository)

Usage

To run it:

• Docker >= 1.2: (See GitHub issue)

$ docker run -d -it \
-v /var/log:/var/log \
--name fail2ban \
--net host \
--cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
--cap-add=NET_RAW \
superitman/fail2ban:latest

• (Docker < 1.2):

$ docker run -d -it \
-v /var/log:/var/log \
--name fail2ban \
--net host \
--privileged \
superitman/fail2ban:latest

If you want to use your own jail.local and your own filters:

$ docker run -d -it \
-v /path/to/filter.d/custom_filter.conf:/etc/fail2ban/filter.d/custom_filter.conf \
-v /path/to/jail.local:/etc/fail2ban/jail.local \
-v /var/log:/var/log \
--name fail2ban \
--net host \
--cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
--cap-add=NET_RAW \
superitman/fail2ban:latest

If you want to sync fail2ban docker timezone with your host, add this argument

-v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone.host:ro

Lots of filters and actions

If you have a lot of custom rules, build your own docker image

$ git clone https://github.com/superitman/docker-fail2ban.git
$ cd docker-fail2ban

Copy your filters in filter.d folder, your actions in action.d and your jail.local in the current folder.

Then build your image

$ docker build -t your-custom-fail2ban .

When your image is ready, run it:

$ docker run -d -it \
-v /var/log:/var/log \
--name fail2ban \
--net host \
--privileged \
your-custom-fail2ban

To-Do

• Should edit jail.conf to use docker-iptables-multiport action
