modsecurity-crs-rp

This Docker image inherits from the official OWASP Core Rule Set Docker image (ModSecurity + Core Rule Set) and adds some configurable variables and an Apache Reverse Proxy configuration.

The goal is to provide a fully functional CRS in a single command:

  • This container can be placed in front of an application.
  • Many CRS variables can be set.
  • And it can additionally consider ModSecurity CRS tuning.

Environment Variables

  • PARANOIA: paranoia_level
  • EXECUTING_PARANOIA: executing_paranoia_level
  • ENFORCE_BODYPROC_URLENCODED: enforce_bodyproc_urlencoded
  • ANOMALYIN: inbound_anomaly_score_threshold
  • ANOMALYOUT: outbound_anomaly_score_threshold
  • ALLOWED_METHODS: allowed_methods
  • ALLOWED_REQUEST_CONTENT_TYPE: allowed_request_content_type
  • ALLOWED_REQUEST_CONTENT_TYPE_CHARSET: allowed_request_content_type_charset
  • ALLOWED_HTTP_VERSIONS: allowed_http_versions
  • RESTRICTED_EXTENSIONS: restricted_extensions
  • RESTRICTED_HEADERS: restricted_headers
  • STATIC_EXTENSIONS: static_extensions
  • MAX_NUM_ARGS: max_num_args
  • ARG_NAME_LENGTH: arg_name_length
  • ARG_LENGTH: arg_length
  • TOTAL_ARG_LENGTH: total_arg_length
  • MAX_FILE_SIZE: max_file_size
  • COMBINED_FILE_SIZES: combined_file_sizes

See https://coreruleset.org/ for further information.

  • BACKEND: application backend
  • PORT: listening port of apache

ModSecurity Tuning

There are two possible ways to pass ModSecurity tuning rules to the container:

  • To map the ModSecurity tuning file(s) via volumes into the container during the run command
  • To copy the ModSecurity tuning file(s) into the created container and then start the container
Map ModSecurity tuning file via volume
docker run -dti \
   --name apachecrsrp \
   -p 1.2.3.4:80:8001 \
   -v /path/to/REQUEST-900-EXCLUSION-RULES-BEFORE-CRS.conf:/etc/apache2/modsecurity.d/owasp-crs/REQUEST-900-EXCLUSION-RULES-BEFORE-CRS.conf \
   -v /path/to/RESPONSE-999-EXCLUSION-RULES-AFTER-CRS.conf:/etc/apache2/modsecurity.d/owasp-crs/RESPONSE-999-EXCLUSION-RULES-AFTER-CRS.conf \
   franbuehler/modsecurity-crs-rp:v3.1
Copy ModSecurity tuning file into created container

This example can be helpful when no volume mounts are possible (some CI pipelines).

docker create -ti --name apachecrsrp \
   -p 1.2.3.4:80:8001 \
   franbuehler/modsecurity-crs-rp:v3.1
  
docker cp /path/to/RESPONSE-999-EXCLUSION-RULES-AFTER-CRS.conf \
   apachecrsrp:/etc/apache2/modsecurity.d/owasp-crs/RESPONSE-999-EXCLUSION-RULES-AFTER-CRS.conf
  
docker start apachecrsrp

docker run examples

Full example with all possible environment variables

   -e ANOMALYOUT=5 \
   -e ALLOWED_METHODS="GET POST PUT" \
   -e ALLOWED_REQUEST_CONTENT_TYPE="text/xml|application/xml|text/plain" \
   -e ALLOWED_REQUEST_CONTENT_TYPE_CHARSET="utf-8|iso-8859-1" \
   -e ALLOWED_HTTP_VERSIONS="HTTP/1.1 HTTP/2 HTTP/2.0" \
   -e RESTRICTED_EXTENSIONS=".cmd/ .com/ .config/ .dll/" \

Example run command for CI integration when no port mapping is possible
docker run -dt --name apachecrsrp \
   -e PARANOIA=1 \
   -e ANOMALYIN=5 \
   -e ANOMALYOUT=4 \
   -e BACKEND=http://172.17.0.1:8000 \
   -e PORT=8001 
   --expose 8001
