Description
Assign loopback interface to the firewalld
trusted zone in order to
explicitly allow the loopback traffic in the system.
To configure firewalld to trust loopback traffic, run the following command:
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-interface=lo
To ensure firewalld settings are applied in runtime, run the following command:
Rationale
Loopback traffic is generated between processes on machine and is typically critical to
operation of the system. The loopback interface is the only place that loopback network
traffic should be seen, all other interfaces should ignore traffic on this network as an
anti-spoofing measure.
Shell script
The following script can be run on the host to remediate the issue.
#!/bin/bash
# Remediation is applicable only in certain platforms
if [ ! -f /.dockerenv ] && [ ! -f /run/.containerenv ]; then
if ! rpm -q --quiet "firewalld" ; then
yum install -y "firewalld"
fi
if test "$(stat -c %d:%i /)" != "$(stat -c %d:%i /proc/1/root/.)"; then
firewall-offline-cmd --zone=trusted --add-interface=lo
elif systemctl is-active firewalld; then
firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-interface=lo
firewall-cmd --reload
else
echo "
firewalld service is not active. Remediation aborted!
This remediation could not be applied because it depends on firewalld service running.
The service is not started by this remediation in order to prevent connection issues."
fi
else
>&2 echo 'Remediation is not applicable, nothing was done'
fi
Ansible playbook
The following playbook can be run with Ansible to remediate the issue.
