To install teler-waf in your Go application, run the following command to download and install the teler-waf package:

go get github.com/teler-sh/teler-waf

Usage

Warning

Deprecation notice: Threat exclusions (Excludes) will be deprecated in the upcoming release (v2). See #73 & #64.

Here is an example of how to use teler-waf in a Go application:

Import the teler-waf package in your Go code:

import "github.com/teler-sh/teler-waf"

Use the New function to create a new instance of the Teler type. This function takes a variety of optional parameters that can be used to configure teler-waf to suit the specific needs of your application.

waf := teler.New()

Use the Handler method of the Teler instance to create a net/http.Handler. This handler can then be used in your application's HTTP routing to apply teler-waf's security measures to specific routes.

handler := waf.Handler(http.HandlerFunc(yourHandlerFunc))

Use the handler in your application's HTTP routing to apply teler-waf's security measures to specific routes.

http.Handle("/path", handler)

That's it! You have configured teler-waf in your Go application.

Options:

For a list of the options available to customize teler-waf, see the teler.Options struct.

Examples

Here is an example of how to customize the options and rules for teler-waf:

// main.go
package main

import (
	"net/http"

	"github.com/teler-sh/teler-waf"
	"github.com/teler-sh/teler-waf/request"
	"github.com/teler-sh/teler-waf/threat"
)

var myHandler = http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// This is the handler function for the route that we want to protect
	// with teler-waf's security measures.
	w.Write([]byte("hello world"))
})

var rejectHandler = http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	// This is the handler function for the route that we want to be rejected
	// if the teler-waf's security measures are triggered.
	http.Error(w, "Sorry, your request has been denied for security reasons.", http.StatusForbidden)
})

func main() {
	// Create a new instance of the Teler type using the New function
	// and configure it using the Options struct.
	telerMiddleware := teler.New(teler.Options{
		// Exclude specific threats from being checked by the teler-waf.
		Excludes: []threat.Threat{
			threat.BadReferrer,
			threat.BadCrawler,
		},
		// Specify whitelisted URIs (path & query parameters), headers,
		// or IP addresses that will always be allowed by the teler-waf
		// with DSL expressions.
		Whitelists: []string{
			`request.Headers matches "(curl|Go-http-client|okhttp)/*" && threat == BadCrawler`,
			`request.URI startsWith "/wp-login.php"`,
			`request.IP in ["127.0.0.1", "::1", "0.0.0.0"]`,
			`request.Headers contains "authorization" && request.Method == "POST"`
		},
		// Specify file path or glob pattern of custom rule files.
		CustomsFromRule: "/path/to/custom/rules/**/*.yaml",
		// Specify custom rules for the teler-waf to follow.
		Customs: []teler.Rule{
			{
				// Give the rule a name for easy identification.
				Name:      "Log4j Attack",
				// Specify the logical operator to use when evaluating the rule's conditions.
				Condition: "or",
				// Specify the conditions that must be met for the rule to trigger.
				Rules: []teler.Condition{
					{
						// Specify the HTTP method that the rule applies to.
						Method: request.GET,
						// Specify the element of the request that the rule applies to
						// (e.g. URI, headers, body).
						Element: request.URI,
						// Specify the pattern to match against the element of the request.
						Pattern: `\$\{.*:\/\/.*\/?\w+?\}`,
					},
				},
			},
			{
				// Give the rule a name for easy identification.
				Name: `Headers Contains "curl" String`,
				// Specify the conditions that must be met for the rule to trigger.
				Rules: []teler.Condition{
					{
						// Specify the DSL expression that the rule applies to.
						DSL: `request.Headers contains "curl"`,
					},
				},
			},
		},
		// Specify the file path to use for logging.
		LogFile: "/tmp/teler.log",
	})

	// Set the rejectHandler as the handler for the telerMiddleware.
	telerMiddleware.SetHandler(rejectHandler)

	// Create a new handler using the handler method of the Teler instance
	// and pass in the myHandler function for the route we want to protect.
	app := telerMiddleware.Handler(myHandler)

	// Use the app handler as the handler for the route.
	http.ListenAndServe("127.0.0.1:3000", app)
}

Custom Rules

Tip

If you want to explore configurations, delve into crafting custom rules and composing DSL expressions, you can practice and gain hands-on experience by using this teler WAF playground. Here, you can also simulate requests customized to fulfill the specific needs of your application.

To integrate custom rules into the teler-waf middleware, you have two choices: Customs and CustomsFromFile. These options offer flexibility to create your own security checks or override the default checks provided by teler-waf.

Customs option

You can define custom rules directly using the Customs option, as shown in the example above.

In the Customs option, you provide an array of teler.Rule structures. Each teler.Rule represents a custom rule with a unique name and a condition that specifies how the individual conditions within the rule are evaluated (or or and). The rule consists of one or more teler.Condition structures, each defining a specific condition to check. Conditions can be based on the HTTP method, element (headers, body, URI, or any), and a regex pattern or a DSL expression to match against.

CustomsFromFile option

Alternatively, the CustomsFromFile option allows you to load custom rules from external files, offering even greater flexibility and manageability. These rules can be defined in YAML format, with each file containing one or more rules. Here is an example YAML structure representing a custom rule:

- name: <name>
  condition: <condition> # Valid values are: "or" or "and", in lowercase or uppercase.
  rules:
    - method: <method> # Valid methods are: "ALL", "CONNECT", "DELETE", "GET", "HEAD", "OPTIONS", "PATCH", "POST", "PUT", and "TRACE". Please refer to https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/teler-sh/teler-waf/request for further details.
      element: <element> # Valid elements are: "headers", "body", "uri", and "any", in lowercase, uppercase, or title case (except for "uri").
      pattern: "<pattern>" # Regular expression pattern
    - dsl: "<expression>" # DSL expression

Important

Please note that the condition, method, and element are optional parameters. The default values assigned to them are as follows: condition is set to or, method is set to ALL, and element is set to ANY. Therefore, if desired, you can leave those parameters empty. The pattern parameter is mandatory, unless you specify a dsl expression. In such cases, when a dsl expression is provided, teler-waf will disregard any values assigned to method and element, even if they are defined. To see some examples, you can refer to the tests/rules/ directory.

You can specify the CustomsFromFile option with the actual file path or glob pattern pointing to the location of your custom rule files. For example:

// Create a new instance of the Teler middleware and
// specify custom rules with the CustomsFromFile option.
telerMiddleware := teler.New(teler.Options{
    CustomsFromFile: "/path/to/custom/rules/**/*.yaml",
})

With CustomsFromFile, you provide the file path or glob pattern where your custom rule files are located. The pattern can include wildcards to match multiple files or a directory and its subdirectories. Each file should contain one or more custom rules defined in the proper YAML format.

By utilizing either the Customs, CustomsFromFile, or both option, you can seamlessly integrate your custom rules into the teler-waf middleware, enhancing its security capabilities to meet your specific requirements.

DSL Expression

DSL (Domain-Specific Language) expressions provide a powerful means of defining conditions that are used to evaluate incoming requests within the context of custom rules or whitelists. With DSL expressions, you can create sophisticated and targeted conditions based on different attributes of the incoming requests. Here are some illustrative examples of DSL expression code:

Examples of DSL expression code:

Check if the incoming request headers contains "curl":

request.Headers contains "curl"

Check if the incoming request method is "GET":

request.Method == "GET"

Check if the incoming request method is "GET" or "POST" using regular expression, matches operator:

request.Method matches "^(POS|GE)T$"

Check if the incoming request IP address is from localhost:

request.IP in ["127.0.0.1", "::1", "0.0.0.0"]

Check if the any element in request contains the string "foo":

one(request.ALL, # contains "foo")

Check if the incoming request body contains "foo":

request.Body contains "foo"

Check whether the current threat category being analyzed is bad crawler or directory bruteforce:

threat in [BadCrawler, DirectoryBruteforce]

Those examples provide a glimpse into the expressive capabilities of DSL expressions, allowing you to define intricate conditions based on various request attributes. By leveraging these expressions, you can effectively define the criteria for evaluating incoming requests and tailor your custom rules or whitelists accordingly, enabling fine-grained control over your application's behavior.

Available variables

When working with DSL expressions, you have access to various variables that provide valuable information about the incoming requests and the threat category being analyzed. Here is a detailed description of the available variables:

Threat category

All constant identifiers of the threat.Threat type can be used as valid variables. These identifiers represent different threat categories that are relevant to your analysis.
request

The request variable represents the incoming request and provides access to its fields and corresponding values. The following sub-variables are available within the request variable:
- request.URI: Represents the URI of the incoming request, including the path, queries, parameters, and fragments.
- request.Headers: Represents the headers of the incoming request, presented in multiple lines.
- request.Body: Represents the body of the incoming request.
- request.Method: Represents the method of the incoming request.
- request.IP: Represents the client IP address associated with the incoming request.
- request.ALL: Represents all the string values from the request fields mentioned above in a slice.
threat

The threat variable represents the threat category being analyzed. It is of the threat.Threat type and allows you to evaluate and make decisions based on the specific threat category associated with the request.

By utilizing those variables within your DSL expressions, you can effectively access and manipulate the attributes of the incoming requests and assess the relevant threat categories. This enables you to create custom rule conditions that tailored to your specific use case.

Available functions

Also, you have access to a variety of functions. These functions encompass both the built-in functions provided by the expr package and those specifically defined within the DSL package. The functions utilize the functionalities offered by the built-in strings Go package. Here is a detailed list of the functions available:

cidr: Get all IP addresses in range with given CIDR.
clone: Create a copy of a string.
containsAny: Check if a string contains any of the specified substrings.
equalFold: Compare two strings in a case-insensitive manner.
hasPrefix: Check if a string has a specified prefix.
hasSuffix: Check if a string has a specified suffix.
join: Concatenate multiple strings using a specified separator.
repeat: Repeat a string a specified number of times.
replace: Replace occurrences of a substring within a string.
replaceAll: Replace all occurrences of a substring within a string.
request: Access request-specific information within the DSL expression.
threat: Access information related to the threat category being analyzed.
title: Convert a string to title case.
toLower: Convert a string to lowercase.
toTitle: Convert a string to title case.
toUpper: Convert a string to uppercase.
toValidUTF8: Convert a string to a valid UTF-8 encoded string.
trim: Remove leading and trailing whitespace from a string.
trimLeft: Remove leading whitespace from a string.
trimPrefix: Remove a specified prefix from a string.
trimRight: Remove trailing whitespace from a string.
trimSpace: Remove leading and trailing whitespace and collapse consecutive whitespace within a string.
trimSuffix: Remove a specified suffix from a string.

For more comprehensive details on operators and built-in functions, please refer to the Expr documentation. It provides a comprehensive guide to utilizing operators and exploring the available built-in functions in your DSL expressions.

Streamlined Configuration Management

For effective configuration, it's essential to define a range of settings, including whitelists, custom rule definitions, logging preferences, and other parameters. The option package streamlines this configuration workflow by enabling you to efficiently unmarshal or load configuration data from JSON and YAML formats into a format that teler-waf can readily comprehend and implement.

// Load configuration from a YAML file.
opt, err := option.LoadFromYAMLFile("/path/to/teler-waf.conf.yaml")
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Create a new instance of the Teler type with
// the loaded options.
telerMiddleware := teler.New(opt)

Development

By default, teler-waf caches all incoming requests for 15 minutes & clear them every 20 minutes to improve the performance. However, if you're still customizing the settings to match the requirements of your application, you can disable caching during development by setting the development mode option to true. This will prevent incoming requests from being cached and can be helpful for debugging purposes.

// Create a new instance of the Teler type using
// the New function & enable development mode option.
telerMiddleware := teler.New(teler.Options{
	Development: true,
})

Logs

Here is an example of what the log lines would look like if teler-waf detects a threat on a request:

{"level":"warn","ts":1672261174.5995026,"msg":"bad crawler","id":"654b85325e1b2911258a","category":"BadCrawler","caller":"teler-waf","listen_addr":"127.0.0.1:36267","request":{"method":"GET","path":"/","ip_addr":"127.0.0.1:37702","headers":{"Accept":["*/*"],"User-Agent":["curl/7.81.0"]},"body":""}}
{"level":"warn","ts":1672261175.9567692,"msg":"directory bruteforce","id":"b29546945276ed6b1fba","category":"DirectoryBruteforce","caller":"teler-waf","listen_addr":"127.0.0.1:36267","request":{"method":"GET","path":"/.git","ip_addr":"127.0.0.1:37716","headers":{"Accept":["*/*"],"User-Agent":["X"]},"body":""}}
{"level":"warn","ts":1672261177.1487508,"msg":"Detects common comment types","id":"75412f2cc0ec1cf79efd","category":"CommonWebAttack","caller":"teler-waf","listen_addr":"127.0.0.1:36267","request":{"method":"GET","path":"/?id=1%27%20or%201%3D1%23","ip_addr":"127.0.0.1:37728","headers":{"Accept":["*/*"],"User-Agent":["X"]},"body":""}}

The id is a unique identifier that is generated when a request is rejected by teler-waf. It is included in the HTTP response headers of the request (X-Teler-Req-Id), and can be used to troubleshoot issues with requests that are being made to the website.

For example, if a request to a website returns an HTTP error status code, such as a 403 Forbidden, the teler request ID can be used to identify the specific request that caused the error and help troubleshoot the issue.

Teler request IDs are used by teler-waf to track requests made to its web application and can be useful for debugging and analyzing traffic patterns on a website.

Custom Response

By default, teler-waf employs the DefaultHTMLResponse as the standard response when a request is rejected or blocked. However, teler-waf offers a high degree of customization, empowering you to tailor the response to your specific requirements. The customization can be achieved using the Status, HTML, or HTMLFile options, all of which are part of the Response interface.

Here's how you can make use of these options in your code:

// Create a new instance of the Teler middleware
telerMiddleware := teler.New(teler.Options{
	// Customize the response for rejected requests
	Response: teler.Response{
		Status: 403,
		HTML: "Your request has been denied for security reasons. Ref ID: {{ID}}.",
		// Alternatively, you can use HTMLFile to point to a custom HTML file
		HTMLFile: "/path/to/custom-403.html",
	},
})

With this level of customization, you can construct personalized and informative responses to be shown when teler-waf blocks or rejects a request. The HTML option permits you to directly specify the desired HTML content as a string, whereas the HTMLFile option enables you to reference an external file containing the custom HTML response.

Moreover, to enhance the user experience, you can leverage placeholders in your HTML content to generate dynamic elements. During runtime, these placeholders will be substituted with actual values, resulting in more contextually relevant responses. The available and supported placeholders include:

{{ID}}: Request IDs, allowing for unique identification of each rejected request.
{{message}}: Rejected messages conveying the reason for request blocking.
{{threat}}: Threat categories, providing insights into the detected security threat.

By incorporating these placeholders, you can create detailed and comprehensive responses that effectively communicate the rationale behind request rejections or blocks.

Falco Sidekick

Falco Sidekick is a tool that receives events from Falco, an open-source cloud-native runtime security project, and sends them to different output channels. It allows you to forward security alerts to various third-party systems such as Slack, Elasticsearch, Loki, Grafana, Datadog and more. This enables security teams to efficiently monitor and respond to security threats and events in real-time.

Integrating Falco Sidekick with teler-waf is also possible. By using the FalcoSidekickURL option, you can configure teler-waf to send events to Falco Sidekick, which will receive and process them for you. To do this, simply create a new instance of the Teler type using the New function and provide the FalcoSidekickURL option with the URL of your Falco Sidekick instance. For example:

// Create a new instance of the Teler type using
// the New function & integrate Falco Sidekick.
telerMiddleware := teler.New(teler.Options{
	FalcoSidekickURL: "http://localhost:2801",
})

Once you have set up this integration, any threats detected by teler-waf will be sent to Falco Sidekick, which can then take appropriate actions based on the configuration you have set up. For instance, you can set up Falco Sidekick to automatically send alerts to your incident response team.

Event

The event forwarded to Falco Sidekick instance includes the following information:

output: Represents the alert message.
priority: The priority is consistently denoted as warning, a nod to the urgency associated with security-related events.
rule: Indicates the specific rule (message) that matched the associated request.
time: Event's generation timestamp.
Output fields:
- teler.caller: Identifies the application source that invoked teler-waf.
- teler.id: Represents a unique identifier for the rejected request.
- teler.threat: Specifies the category of the threat.
- teler.listen_addr: Denotes the network address on which teler-waf is listening for incoming requests.
  - request.body: Contains the body of the associated request.
  - request.headers: Lists the headers from the associated request.
  - request.ip_addr: Discloses the IP address of the associated request.
  - request.method: States the HTTP method employed in the associated request.
  - request.path: Refers to the path of the associated request.

Overall, Falco Sidekick is a versatile tool that can help you automate your security response process and improve your overall security posture. By leveraging its capabilities, you can ensure that your cloud-native applications are secure and protected against potential threats.

Wazuh

You can enhance your security monitoring by integrating teler WAF logs into Wazuh. To do this, use custom rules available in the extras/ directory.

Add the localfile element block below inside ossec_config element in the local configuration file:

<ossec_config>
  <!-- ... -->
  <localfile>
    <log_format>syslog</log_format>
    <location>/path/to/your/teler.log</location>
  </localfile>
</ossec_config>

Note

The value of location should be the teler WAF log file path you specified in Options.LogFile.

By doing this, Wazuh will be able to read and analyze the teler WAF logs, enhancing your network protection and providing better insights.

Datasets

The teler-waf package utilizes a dataset of threats to identify and analyze each incoming request for potential security threats. This dataset is updated daily, which means that you will always have the latest resource. The dataset is initially stored in the user-level cache directory (on Unix systems, it returns $XDG_CACHE_HOME/teler-waf as specified by XDG Base Directory Specification if non-empty, else $HOME/.cache/teler-waf. On Darwin, it returns $HOME/Library/Caches/teler-waf. On Windows, it returns %LocalAppData%/teler-waf. On Plan 9, it returns $home/lib/cache/teler-waf) on your first launch. Subsequent launch will utilize the cached dataset, rather than downloading it again.

Note

The threat datasets are obtained from the teler-sh/teler-resources repository.

However, there may be situations where you want to disable automatic updates to the threat dataset. For example, you may have a slow or limited internet connection, or you may be using a machine with restricted file access. In these cases, you can set an option called NoUpdateCheck to true, which will prevent the teler-waf from automatically updating the dataset.

Caution

Enabling the InMemory takes precedence and ensures that automatic updates remain enabled.

// Create a new instance of the Teler type using the New
// function & disable automatic updates to the threat dataset.
telerMiddleware := teler.New(teler.Options{
	NoUpdateCheck: true,
})

Finally, there may be cases where it's necessary to load the threat dataset into memory rather than saving it to a user-level cache directory. This can be particularly useful if you're running the application or service on a distroless or runtime image, where file access may be limited or slow. In this scenario, you can set an option called InMemory to true, which will load the threat dataset into memory for faster access.

// Create a new instance of the Teler type using the
// New function & enable in-memory threat datasets store.
telerMiddleware := teler.New(teler.Options{
	InMemory: true,
})

Caution

This may also consume more system resources, so it's worth considering the trade-offs before making this decision.
