  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

TITLE:
Plesk Firewall​
PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE:
CentOS Linux 7.5.1804 (Core)‬
Product Plesk Onyx Version 17.8.11 Update #28​
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
Unable to Block/Deny incoming for Docker Ports with Plesk Firewall​
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Install a Docker - eg Redis on Manual Mapping Port 6379

Plesk Firewall Settings -

Name of the rule - Redis Docker
Match direction - Incoming
Action - Deny
Ports - TCP 6379, UDP 6379
Sources - (any host)​
ACTUAL RESULT:
Port 6379 is externally accessible. Unblocked.​
EXPECTED RESULT:
Port 6379 to be Blocked externally.​
ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
This was working as expected few weeks ago.​
YOUR EXPECTATIONS FROM PLESK SERVICE TEAM:
Help with sorting out​
 
From developer:

The issue is not reproduced even in default firewall configuration (without additional rule, since there's already a rule that defines system policy for incoming traffic as "deny").
After adding the "Redis Docker" rule as described in STR the situation (obviously) doesn't change (even if incoming traffic policy is changed to "allow").
So, there is no issue. Checked on Ubuntu 16.04 and CentOS 7.
 
Hi @IgorG,

Thank you.

I can reproduce this issue across all my servers. Also I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. Issue - Plesk firewall rule

Could you please ask the Dev to test this with latest docker and Plesk updates? There was no issues previously.

I'm not sure about this. even the Plesk Documentation for Docker request you to Block the ports which will be opened Dockers.

Using Docker
Important: If port mapping is configured, Docker binds to the specified port on all network interfaces of the host system. Usually, this means that the application can be accessed from anywhere. Docker presumes that authentication is carried out by the application itself, but sometimes it is not so (for example, MySQL does not allow anonymous access by default, but redis does).
Plesk cannot determine what service is installed in a specific Docker container, and cannot control access to it. If you need to prohibit access to the application from outside Plesk, do it manually using the firewall on the host system.
 
Checked on freshly installed Plesk 17.8:

Checked both the default configuration with enabled firewall above and a configuration with the suggested "Redis Docker" rule. After that, from another machine connection is not possible:

Code: 
# telnet 10.52.35.113 6379
Trying 10.52.35.113...
^C

So the issue does not reproduce with the provided STR.
 
Hi @IgorG,

Thank you!!!

I just tried with Newly Build Server as well and can reproduce the issue.

I checked the all the versions. They are exactly the same.

Could you please try with Fail2Ban and Mod_Security installed and enabled.
 
Fail2ban and ModSecurity do no open connections to arbitrary ports in firewall, so they are irrelevant in this case.
If you're using Plesk Firewall module, please also make sure that firewalld is disabled in the system.
 
firewalld was running. I stopped that. But the issue is there there.

Here is my #iptables -L

Hi @IgorG

Thank you.

I contacted the Plesk Support.

They have confirmed this is a bug and have sent me the workaround.

Plesk Firewall deny rules do not block connections to Docker container

Hello,

I have checked the issue.

This issue is submitted as a bug PPPM-9222 which is planned to be fixed in one of the future Plesk updates.
As a workaround please add the following rule via the command line:


color:#2B2E2F;background:#F8F8F8">iptables -I FORWARD -d 172.17.0.2 -p tcp --dport 6379 -j DROP
Also, you may subscribe to the following article in order to be notified when the bug is fixed:
Plesk Firewall deny rules do not block connections to Docker container

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Best Regards,

Is there any progess on this bug?
Since Docker-Containers are quite popular, it would be good if plesk-firewall could handle this...
 
@MSZ You can start the docker in the command-line Bind to the local host.

Eg - docker run --name=varnish -p 127.0.0.1:32780:80 "million12/varnish"
