ufw-docker-automated

Manage Docker containers firewall with UFW!

If you use Docker, you may know docker's publish port function (docker -p 8080:80 ) directly talks to iptables and update rules accordingly. This conflicts with Ubuntu/Debian's ufw firewall manager and bypasses ufw rules.

Lot of issues were raised, but Docker didn't "fix" the issue. Fortunately some smart people found the solution to this problem and my favorite one is ufw-docker. You can read more about it on the project's readme.

Original ufw-docker project is very easy to use, but it's static, doesn't track container IP changes. If original container's IP changes somehow (e.g server reboot), your rule will be invalid. This project solves that problem by listening to the Docker API events.

Features

  • Automate ufw-docker rules
  • Automate docker container's firewall with labels
  • Zero dependency, single binary installation
  • Supports docker-compose
  • Supports both inbound/outbound rules

Supported labels

Label key Value / Syntax Example
UFW_MANAGED TRUE (Required for all rules) -l UFW_MANAGED=TRUE
UFW_ALLOW_FROM CIDR/IP-SpecificPort-Comment , Semicolon separated, default=any -l UFW_ALLOW_FROM=192.168.3.0/24-LAN;10.10.0.50/32-53-DNS
UFW_DENY_OUT TRUE (Required if outbound rules are defined) -l UFW_DENY_OUT=TRUE
UFW_ALLOW_TO CIDR/IP-SpecificPort-Comment , Semicolon separated, default=none -l UFW_ALLOW_TO=192.168.3.0/24-LAN;10.10.0.50/32-53-DNS

Example

# To use with docker-compose add labels: section to your docker-compose.yml file

Once containers are stopped their ufw entries will be deleted.

Installation

Step 1. Install ufw-docker's firewall rules on your ufw configuration file.

Open up /etc/ufw/after.rules file and add following code to the bottom of the file.

# BEGIN UFW AND DOCKER
*filter
:ufw-user-forward - [0:0]
:ufw-docker-logging-deny - [0:0]
:DOCKER-USER - [0:0]
-A DOCKER-USER -j ufw-user-forward

-A DOCKER-USER -j RETURN -s 10.0.0.0/8
-A DOCKER-USER -j RETURN -s 172.16.0.0/12
-A DOCKER-USER -j RETURN -s 192.168.0.0/16

-A DOCKER-USER -p udp -m udp --sport 53 --dport 1024:65535 -j RETURN

-A DOCKER-USER -j ufw-docker-logging-deny -p tcp -m tcp --tcp-flags FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN -d 192.168.0.0/16
-A DOCKER-USER -j ufw-docker-logging-deny -p tcp -m tcp --tcp-flags FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN -d 10.0.0.0/8
-A DOCKER-USER -j ufw-docker-logging-deny -p tcp -m tcp --tcp-flags FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN -d 172.16.0.0/12
-A DOCKER-USER -j ufw-docker-logging-deny -p udp -m udp --dport 0:32767 -d 192.168.0.0/16
-A DOCKER-USER -j ufw-docker-logging-deny -p udp -m udp --dport 0:32767 -d 10.0.0.0/8
-A DOCKER-USER -j ufw-docker-logging-deny -p udp -m udp --dport 0:32767 -d 172.16.0.0/12

-A DOCKER-USER -j RETURN

-A ufw-docker-logging-deny -m limit --limit 3/min --limit-burst 10 -j LOG --log-prefix "[UFW DOCKER BLOCK] "
-A ufw-docker-logging-deny -j DROP

COMMIT
# END UFW AND DOCKER

Step 2. Reload your ufw service to take effect of new configuration.

sudo ufw reload

# or

sudo service ufw restart

# or

sudo systemctl restart ufw

Step 3. Download ufw-docker-automated binary

Download the latest release of the project.

Step 4. Run the app

To manage ufw rules, binary has to run as a root privileged user.

chmod +x ./ufw-docker-automated
./ufw-docker-automated

You'll most likely want to run this app in a background and at the startup of the system. If you use systemd service manager (Default since Ubuntu 16.04, Debian 8), here is an example.

Create and open new file on the following path /lib/systemd/system/ufw-docker-automated.service and copy the following content, don't forget to update the binary path.

[Unit]
Description=Ufw docker automated
Documentation=https://github.com/shinebayar-g/ufw-docker-automated
After=network-online.target ufw.service containerd.service
Wants=network-online.target
Requires=ufw.service

[Service]
# To manage ufw rules, binary has to run as a root or sudo privileged user.
User=ubuntu
# Provide /path/to/ufw-docker-automated
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/ufw-docker-automated
Restart=always

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Then reload the systemd.

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable ufw-docker-automated
sudo systemctl start ufw-docker-automated
