Code Snippet Of The Day
Run an ssh server at home and get 123098 unsolicited login attempts per week from China too? You feel my pain. If you run a bsd box (Like OS X) this script helps plenty. With it you can Firewall repeated illegal or failed SSH logins attempts. Compliments of www.freebsdwiki.net:
#!/bin/sh
if ipfw show | awk '{print $1}' | grep -q 20000 ; then
ipfw delete 20000
fi
# This catches repeated attempts for both legal and illegal users
# No check for duplicate entries is performed, since the rule
# has been deleted.
awk '/sshd/ && (/Invalid user/ || /authentication error/) {try[$(NF)]++}
END {for (h in try) if (try[h] > 5) print h}' /var/log/auth.log |
while read ip
do
ipfw -q add 20000 deny tcp from $ip to any
done
Heading Level 3
