Fail2ban 0.8.3+ recognizes the Asterisk 1.8.x log format and there's no need to enable syslog.local0 as it'll just fill up your messages/syslog file. Use fail2ban-regex to test your conf files and you'll see they're working.

Hello all,

jail.conf:
  
I have fail2ban installed on CentOS 4.7 with Shoreline Firewall (Shorewall) and IpTables. This works well with SSH, Apache and Named bans. However, I am still trying to get it to ban failed SIP registration attempts in Asterisk.

Asterisk is an open source VOIP PBX. If you have your asterisk exposed to the Internet, you may see people bruteforcing for usernames and passwords; apart from the obvious security risks, this often occurs at a high rate, causing high CPU and bandwidth usage.


WARNING: There are certain types of asterisk attacks fail2ban is ineffective against. For more details see the discussion page.

Asterisk 1.4 (Debian: 1:1.4.21.2~dfsg-3+lenny1)

The first line is from /var/log/asterisk/messages, which is written by asterisk. It is not usable for fail2ban (0.8.3) because of the timestamp that is enclosed in brackets.

The second line is what you get if you instruct asterisk to log to syslog by adding syslog.local0 => notice,warning,error to /etc/asterisk/logger.conf (and obviously configuring your syslogd to log local0 to some file).

Fail2ban 0.8.3+ recognizes the Asterisk 1.8.x log format and there's no need to enable syslog.local0 as it'll just fill up your messages/syslog file. Use fail2ban-regex to test your conf files and you'll see they're working.

  • [Aug 8 14:31:33] NOTICE[1687] chan_sip.c: Registration from '"150"<sip:150@hostname>' failed for '192.0.2.1' - No matching peer found
  • Aug 8 14:31:33 hostname asterisk[1617]: NOTICE[1687]: chan_sip.c:15642 in handle_request_register: Registration from '"154"<sip:154@hostname>' failed for '192.0.2.1' - No matching peer found

Template:Logger.conf


05/14/2011 - Don't forget to add this to /etc/asterisk/logger.conf.

[general]
dateformat=%F %T

Thats important, otherwise fail2ban will will not be able to properly parse the log file.
FSD


Failregex

The regular expressions below are proposed failregex for this software. Multiple regular expressions for failregex will only work with a version of Fail2ban greater than or equal to 0.7.6.

The tag <HOST> in the regular expressions below is just an alias for (?:::f{4,6}:)?(?P<host>\S+). The replacement is done automatically by Fail2ban when adding the regular expression. At the moment, exactly one named group host or <HOST> tag must be present in each regular expression.

Please, before editing this section, propose your changes in the discussion page first.

failregex = asterisk.*chan_sip.c.*Registration from .* failed for '<HOST>' - No matching peer found
