Greetings,
I am pleased to announce the release of SSHGuard 1.6.4 [1]. This release
brings updated signatures, usability improvements, and bug fixes.
Highlights in this release include:
- Match Postfix pre-authentication disconnects
- Fix bashisms in iptables backend
- Fix size argument in inet_ntop() call
- Remove excessive logging when polling from files
- Keep looking for unreadable files while polling
- Update Dovecot signature for POP3
- Match "Connection reset" message for SSH
- Resurrect PID file option by popular demand
- Adjust default abuse threshold
Most notably, some default options have changed. The abuse threshold has
been reduced to 30 (3 attacks) and the initial block time has been
lowered to 2 minutes (from 7). These settings can be overridden from the
command line. Package maintainers should check their scripts.
The PID file option (-p) has been resurrected.
As usual, please report any bugs, build failures, or other issues to
the mailing list or the Bitbucket tracker [2].
If you haven't already, please take 2-3 minutes to complete a survey
about how you use SSHGuard:
