Apache 2.4 - ignoring .conf file

I'm having issues with this fork ignoring my .conf files. It continues to log to /tmp and whitelisted IPs get blocked. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Apache 2.4.

Relevant configs + permissions:

ryan@ip-10-0-5-164:~$ sudo cat /etc/apache2/mods-available/evasive20.conf

How whitelist or disable mod_evasive for a specific domain than entire server or all websites?

Hi,

We are using mod_evasive since years and its great module protecting the server against DDoS attack but we now got a situation where we need to disable mod_evasive just for a domain on a shared hosting server than disabling it from entire server.

If there any way we can whitelist/disable mod_evasive for a specific domain on a shared hosting server where hundreds of websites are hosted?

Thank you in advance.

DOSLogDir

Debian

I tried different variants for path of the log dir
for example:
DOSLogDir "/var/log/mod_evasive"
DOSLogDir /var/log/apache2
etc.
but I don't see any log file

DOSLogDir is an abuse vector itself

Being that each attack source is written to an individual file in DOSLogDir, this leaves the machine open to inode abuse due to the sheer volume of files that can/will be created and apparently never cleaned up.

DOSLogdir
Directory where lock files will be created to prevent continuous emails from being sent or system commands from getting executed

However, even if DOSEmailNotify or DOSSystemCommand are commented out, these files are still created.

It would be great to simply let the module use syslog in this case.

Edit: Perhaps adding a cleanup routine to the module to remove the related DOSLogDir files when the associated hash table entry expires would be prudent here as well.

Apache 2.4.6 (CentOS7) - undefined symbol: evasive24_module

Hi,

I keep getting the following error once installed mod_evasive24 on Apache 2.4.6 (CentOs7):

httpd: Syntax error on line 56 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 78 of /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-base.conf: Can't locate API module structure `evasive24_module' in file /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_evasive24.so: /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_evasive24.so: undefined symbol: evasive24_module

Is there anything that needs to be tweaked? Or is it not compatible with 2.4.6?

Thx for your help.

mod_Evasive block google bot

mod_evasive is great apache module to block site attack.
But Googlebot is giving us much requests every seconds and in most of cases and it is the heaviest http requester.
We can make mod_evasive not to judge Googlebot as dos attacker using whitelist funciton of mod_evasive but you can define it only by IP address.
If googlebot access to your site with unexpected IP, your server will return 403(forbidden) to googlebot and your site's rank in google will also drop.
please help

Whitelist files/URLs on mod_evasive

Hello,

As soon as I enabled this module, I noticed that a number of IPs were blocked straight away, and all of those users use Safari on iOS.

After a quick investigation, I saw that those users were requesting "serviceworker.js" several times. This is a bug and this file should only be fetched once.

I reported that bug to Apple, but unfortunately the mess is already done and many users will continue to fetch this file several times -- https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=187435

mod_evasive allows me to whitelist IPs, but is there any way I can also whitelist files, folders or subdomains so that those will not count towards DOSPageCount or DOSSiteCount?

I'm only getting alerts and blocks for those who are fetching "serviceworker.js" so much.

Thank you very much,
Nuno

Query : on blocking

what if 20 users use simultaneously from specific organization (which will be single ip ), will it check user agent before blocking ?

Needed to tweak

To run on our CentOS machine we needed to alter the print $SOCKET line. Thus,

#!/usr/bin/perl

test.pl: small script to test mod_dosevasive's effectiveness

use IO::Socket;
use strict;

for(0..100) {
my($response);
my($SOCKET) = new IO::Socket::INET( Proto => "tcp",
PeerAddr=> "127.0.0.1:80");
if (! defined $SOCKET) { die $!; }
print $SOCKET "GET /?$_ HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n";
$response = <$SOCKET>;
print $response;
close($SOCKET);
}
