# Host firewall (Infrastructure as Code) Canonical copies of the prod app-host firewall (see `docs/vm-security-hardening.md` for the full rationale). These are the source of truth; the live host should match. Installed as a boot-enabled systemd service. ## Files - `pw-firewall.nft` -> `/etc/pw-firewall/pw-firewall.nft` nftables `inet pw_fw` table (input hook, priority -150). Public allow-list `{22, 22022, 80, 443}`, a `trusted_admin` set allow-listing git/forgejo (3022), internal subnets + loopback fully trusted, everything else on `ens18` dropped. - `pw-docker-fw.sh` -> `/usr/local/sbin/pw-docker-fw.sh` Adds DOCKER-USER rules so external (ens18) NEW inbound to Docker-published container ports is dropped (postgres/listmonk/api/forgejo were accidentally on 0.0.0.0); trusted_admin IPs are allow-listed to forgejo first. - `pw-firewall.service` -> `/etc/systemd/system/pw-firewall.service` Applies both at boot (After=docker). Also re-applied on docker restart via `/etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/pw-firewall.conf` (ExecStartPost). ## Install / update on the host ``` sudo install -D -m 0644 pw-firewall.nft /etc/pw-firewall/pw-firewall.nft sudo install -D -m 0755 pw-docker-fw.sh /usr/local/sbin/pw-docker-fw.sh sudo install -D -m 0644 pw-firewall.service /etc/systemd/system/pw-firewall.service sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl enable --now pw-firewall.service ``` ## Add / remove a trusted admin IP (for git push over :3022) ``` sudo nft add element inet pw_fw trusted_admin { } # live # then add to TRUSTED_ADMIN in pw-docker-fw.sh + the set in pw-firewall.nft # and re-run: sudo systemctl restart pw-firewall.service ``` ## Safety Roll out with an auto-rollback timer (`setsid sh -c 'sleep 300; nft delete table inet pw_fw; iptables -F DOCKER-USER; ...'`) so a bad rule can't lock you out; cancel it only after verifying SSH + git still work from off-network.
