These settings do **NOT** configure the main # ModSecurity settings such as: # # - SecRuleEngine # - SecRequestBodyAccess # - SecAuditEngine # - SecDebugLog # # You should use the modsecurity.conf-recommended file that comes with the # ModSecurity source code archive. # # Ref: https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/blob/master/modsecurity.conf-recommended # # # -- [[ Rule Version ]] ------------------------------------------------------------------- # # Rule version data is added to the "Producer" line of Section H of the Audit log: # # - Producer: ModSecurity for Apache/2.7.0-rc1 (http://www.modsecurity.org/); OWASP_CRS/2.2.4. # # Ref: https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/wiki/Reference-Manual#wiki-SecComponentSignature # SecComponentSignature "OWASP_CRS/2.2.8" # # -- [[ Modes of Operation: Self-Contained vs. Collaborative Detection ]] ----------------- # # Each detection rule uses the "block" action which will inherit the SecDefaultAction # specified below. Your settings here will determine which mode of operation you use. # # -- [[ Self-Contained Mode ]] -- # Rules inherit the "deny" disruptive action. The first rule that matches will block. # # -- [[ Collaborative Detection Mode ]] -- # This is a "delayed blocking" mode of operation where each matching rule will inherit # the "pass" action and will only contribute to anomaly scores. Transactional blocking # can be applied # # -- [[ Alert Logging Control ]] -- # You have three options - # # - To log to both the Apache error_log and ModSecurity audit_log file use: "log" # - To log *only* to the ModSecurity audit_log file use: "nolog,auditlog" # - To log *only* to the Apache error_log file use: "log,noauditlog" # # Ref: http://blog.spiderlabs.com/2010/11/advanced-topic-of-the-week-traditional-vs-anomaly-scoring-detection-modes.html # Ref: https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/wiki/Reference-Manual#wiki-SecDefaultAction # SecDefaultAction "phase:1,deny,log" # # -- [[ Collaborative Detection Severity Levels ]] ---------------------------------------- # # These are the default scoring points for each severity level. You may # adjust these to you liking. These settings will be used in macro expansion # in the rules to increment the anomaly scores when rules match. # # These are the default Severity ratings (with anomaly scores) of the individual rules - # # - 2: Critical - Anomaly Score of 5. # Is the highest severity level possible without correlation. It is # normally generated by the web attack rules (40 level files). # - 3: Error - Anomaly Score of 4. # Is generated mostly from outbound leakage rules (50 level files). # - 4: Warning - Anomaly Score of 3. # Is generated by malicious client rules (35 level files). # - 5: Notice - Anomaly Score of 2. # Is generated by the Protocol policy and anomaly files. # SecAction \ "id:'900001', \ phase:1, \ t:none, \ setvar:tx.critical_anomaly_score=5, \ setvar:tx.error_anomaly_score=4, \ setvar:tx.warning_anomaly_score=3, \ setvar:tx.notice_anomaly_score=2, \ nolog, \ pass" # # -- [[ Collaborative Detection Scoring Initialization and Threshold Levels ]] ------------------------------ # # These variables are used in macro expansion in the 49 inbound blocking and 59 # outbound blocking files. # # **MUST HAVE** ModSecurity v2.5.12 or higher to use macro expansion in numeric # operators. If you have an earlier version, edit the 49/59 files directly to # set the appropriate anomaly score levels. # # You should set the score level (rule 900003) to the proper threshold you # would prefer. If set to "5" it will work similarly to previous Mod CRS rules # and will create an event in the error_log file if there are any rules that # match. If you would like to lessen the number of events generated in the # error_log file, you should increase the anomaly score threshold to something # like "20".
