Environment Variables
- DEBUG enables verbose output if set
- ETCD_PORT sets the TCP port on which to connect to the local etcd daemon (default: 4001)
- ETCD_PATH sets the etcd directory where the router announces its configuration (default: /deis/router)
- ETCD_TTL sets the time-to-live before etcd purges a configuration value, in seconds (default: 10)
- PORT sets the TCP port on which the router listens (default: 80)
Firewall
Shellshock exposed that some apps (mostly CGI based) inside a web server can be exploited, allowing the arbitrary execution of commands.
To reduce the contact surface of this attack and others (like SQL injection and cross site scripting), it's possible to enable the naxsi firewall (which is disabled by default). NAXSI is an open-source, high performance, low rules maintenance WAF for NGINX. The rules included are from this project doxi-rules
Only these modules are enabled:
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
| web_app.rules | detect exploit/misuse-attempts againts web-applications |
| web_server.rules | generic rules to protect a webserver from misconfiguration and known mistakes / exploit-vectors |
| active-mode.rules | rules to configure active-mode (block) |
| naxsi_core | core naxsi rules |
