.Nm pf.conf
.Nd filter rule configuration file for packet filtering
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Xr pf 4
packet filter drops, passes and modifies packets according to the
rules defined in this file.
For each packet inspected by the filter, the set of rules is evaluated
from top to bottom, and the last matching rule decides what action is
performed.
.Sh GRAMMAR
Syntax for filter rules in BNF:
.Bd -literal
rule           = action ( "in" | "out" )
                 [ "log" | "log-all" ] [ "quick" ]

.Ed
.Sh FILTER RULES
Filter rules are typically manipulated using
.Xr pfctl 8 .
Filter rules are loaded from a text file into the kernel using
.Pp
.Cm # pfctl -R file
.Pp
which replaces the active rule set with the new one.
The active rule set can be displayed using
.Pp
.Cm # pfctl -s r
.Pp
For each packet processed by the packet filter, the filter rules are
evaluated in sequential order, from first to last.
Each rule either matches the packet or doesn't.
The last matching rule decides what action is taken.
.Pp
If no rule matches the packet, the default action is
.Em pass .
.Pp
To block everything by default and only pass packets
that match explicit rules, one uses
.Bd -literal
.Cm block in all
.Cm block out all
.Ed
.Pp
as the first two rules.
.Sh ACTIONS
.Bl -tag -width Fl
.It Em pass
The packet is passed.
.It Em block
The packet is blocked.
Optionally, the filter can return a TCP RST or ICMP UNREACHABLE packet
to the sender, where applicable. Returning ICMP packets can have
an ICMP code set by number or name, TCP RST can have a TTL set.
.It Em scrub
The packet is run through normalization/defragmentation.
Scrub rules are not considered last matching rules.
IPv6 packets are not defragmented.
.El
.Sh LOGGING
.Bl -tag -width Fl
.It Em log
In addition to the action specified, a log message is generated.
.It Em log-all
Used with 
.Sq keep state
or
.Sq modulate state
rules.
Not only the packet that creates state is logged, but all packets of
the connection.
.El
.Pp
The logged packets are sent to the
.Em pflog0
interface.
This interface is monitored by the
.Xr pflogd 8
logging daemon which dumps the logged packets to the file
.Em /var/log/pflog
in
.Xr tcpdump 8
binary format.
The log files can be read using tcpdump:
.Bd -literal
.Cm # tcpdump -n -e -ttt -r /var/log/pflog
.Ed
.Sh QUICK
If a packet matches a rule which has the 
.Sq quick
option set, this rule
is considered the last matching rule, and evaluation of subsequent rules
is skipped.
.Sh ROUTING
If a packet matches a rule with a route option set, the packet filter will
route the packet according to the type of route option.
.Ss fastroute
The
.Em fastroute
option does a normal route lookup to find the next hop for the packet.
.Ss route-to
The
.Em route-to
option routes the packet to the specified interface with an optional address
for the next hop.
.Ss dup-to
The
.Em dup-to
option creates a duplicate of the packet and routes it like
.Em route-to.
The original packet gets routed as it normally would.
.Sh PARAMETERS
The rule parameters specify for what packets a rule applies.
A packet always comes in on or goes out through one interface.
Most parameters are optional.
If a parameter is specified, the rule only applies to packets with
matching attributes.
Certain parameters can be expressed as lists, in which case
.Em pfctl
generates all needed rule combinations.
.Ss in or out
The rule applies to incoming or outgoing packets.
Either
.Em in
or
.Em out
must be specified.
To cover both directions, two rules are needed.
.Ss on <interface>
The rule applies only to packets coming in on or going out through this
particular interface.
.Ss <af>
The rule applies only to packets of this address family.
Supported values are inet and inet6.
.Ss proto <protocol>
The rule applies only to packets of this protocol.
Common protocols used here are tcp, udp, icmp and ipv6-icmp.
.Ss from <source> port <source> to <dest> port <dest>
The rule applies only to packets with the specified source and destination
addresses/ports.
.Pp
Addresses can be specified in CIDR notation (matching netblocks), as
symbolic host names or interface names, or as any of the following keywords:
.Bl -tag -width no-route -compact
.It Em any
means any address;
.It Em no-route
means any address which is not currently routable.
.El
.Pp
Host name resolution and interface to address translation are done at
rule set load-time. 
When the address of an interface (or host name) changes (by DHCP or PPP,
for instance), the rule set must be reloaded for the change to be reflected
in the kernel.
Interface names surrounded by parentheses cause an automatic update of
the rule whenever the referenced interface changes its address.
Reloading the rule set is not required in this case.
.Pp
Ports can be specified using these operators
.Bd -literal
    = (equal), != (unequal), < (lesser), <= (lesser or equal), > (greater),
    >= (greater or equal), >< (range) and <> (except range).
.Ed
.Pp
>< and <> are binary operators (they take two arguments), and the range
doesn't include the limits, for instance:
.Bl -tag -width Fl
.It Em port 2000 >< 2004
means 
.Sq all ports > 2000 and < 2004 ,
hence ports 2001, 2002 and 2003.
.It Em port 2000 <> 2004
means 
.Sq all ports < 2000 or > 2004 ,
hence ports 1-1999 and 2005-65535.
.El
.Pp
The host and port specifications are optional, as the following examples
show:
.Bd -literal
    pass in all
    pass in from any to any
    pass in proto tcp from any port <= 1024 to any
    pass in proto tcp from any to any port 25
    pass in proto tcp from 10.0.0.0/8 port > 1024 to ! 10.1.2.3 port != 22
.Ed
.Ss user <user> group <group>
The rule only applies to packets of sockets owned by the specified user
and group.
For outgoing connections initiated from the firewall, this is the user
that opened the connection.
For incoming connections to the firewall itself, this is the user that
listens on the destination port.
For forwarded connections, where the firewall isn't a connection endpoint,
the user and group are
.Em unknown .
.Pp
All packets, both outgoing and incoming, of one connection are associated
with the same user and group.
Only TCP and UDP packets can be associated with users, for other protocols
these parameters are ignored.
.Pp
User and group refer to the effective (as opposed to the real) IDs, in
case the socket is created by a setuid/setgid process.
Note that user and group IDs are stored when a socket is created;
when a process creates a listening socket as root (for instance, because
it wants to bind to a privileged port) and subsequently sets another
user ID (to drop privileges), the socket's uid remains root.
.Pp
User and group IDs can be specified as either numbers or names, the
syntax is similar to the one for ports.
The value
.Em unknown
matches packets of forwarded connections.
.Em unknown
can only be used with operators = and !=, other constructs
like 'user >= unknown' are invalid.
Forwarded packets with unknown user and group ID match only rules
that explicitely compare against
.Em unknown
with operator = or !=, for instance 'user >= 0' does not match
forwarded packets.
The following example allows only selected users to open outgoing
connections:
.Bd -literal
    block out proto { tcp, udp } all
    pass  out proto { tcp, udp } all user { < 1000, dhartmei } keep state
.Ed
.Ss flags <a> | <a>/<b> | /<b>
The rule only applies to TCP packets that have the flags <a> set
out of set <b>.
Flags not specified in <b> are ignored.
If <b> is not set, all flags are specified.
The flags are: (F)IN, (S)YN, (R)ST, (P)USH, (A)CK, (U)RG, (E)CE, and C(W)R.
.Bl -tag -width Fl
.It Em flags S/S
Flag SYN is set.
The other flags are ignored.
.It Em flags S/SA
Of SYN and ACK, exactly SYN is set.
SYN, SYN+PSH, SYN+RST match, but SYN+ACK, ACK and ACK+RST don't.
This is more restrictive than the previous example.
.It Em flags S
If the second set is not specified, it defaults to FSRPAUEW.
Hence, only packets with SYN set and all other flags unset match this 
rule.
This is more restrictive than the previous example.
.It Em flags /SFRA
If the first set is not specified, it defaults to none.
All of SYN, FIN, RST and ACK must be unset.
.El
.Ss icmp-type <type> code <code> and ipv6-icmp-type <type> code <code>
The rule only applies to ICMP or ICMPv6 packets with the specified type
and code.
This parameter is only valid for rules that cover protocols icmp or
ipv6-icmp.
The protocol and the icmp type indicator (icmp-type or ipv6-icmp-type)
must match.
.Ss allow-opts
By default, packets which contain IP options are blocked.
When
.Em allow-opts
is specified for a
.Em pass
rule, packets that pass the filter based on that rule (last matching)
do so even if they contain IP options.
For packets that match state, the rule that initially created the
state is used.
The implicit
.Em pass
rule that is used when a packet doesn't match any rules does not
allow IP options.
.Ss label <string>
Adds a label (name) to the rule, which can be used to identify the rule.
For instance,
.Em pfctl -s labels
shows per-rule statistics for rules that have labels.
.Pp
The following macros can be used in labels:
.Pp
.Bl -tag -width $srcaddr -compact -offset indent
.It Em $srcaddr
the source IP address.
.It Em $dstaddr
the destination IP address.
.It Em $srcport
the source port specification.
.It Em $dstport
the destination port specification.
.It Em $proto
the protocol name.
.It Em $nr
the rule number.
.El
.Pp
Example:
.Bd -literal
    ips = "{ 1.2.3.4, 1.2.3.5 }"
    pass in proto tcp from any to $ips port >1023 label "$dstaddr:$dstport"
.Ed
.Pp
expands to
.Bd -literal
    pass in proto tcp from any to 1.2.3.4 port >1023 label "1.2.3.4:>1023"
    pass in proto tcp from any to 1.2.3.5 port >1023 label "1.2.3.5:>1023"
.Ed
.Pp
Note that evaluation takes place at parse time.
.Sh MACROS
.Em pfctl
supports macro definition and expansion like:
.Bd -literal
    ext_if = "kue0"
    pass out on $ext_if from any to any         keep state
    pass in  on $ext_if from any to any port 25 keep state
.Ed
.Pp
Macro names must start with a letter and may contain letters, digits
and underscores.
Macros are not expanded recursively.
.Pp
Macros can be concatenated:
.Bd -literal
    webservers  = "{ 10.0.0.1,  10.0.0.7,  10.0.0.8, "
    webservers += "  10.0.0.17, 10.0.0.25, 10.0.0.37 }"
.Ed
.Sh STATEFUL INSPECTION
.Em pf
is a stateful packet filter, which means it can track the state of
a connection.
Instead of passing all traffic to port 25, for instance, one can pass
only the initial packet and keep state.
.Pp
If a packet matches a pass ... keep state rule, the filter creates
a state for this connection and automatically lets pass all following
packets of that connection.
.Pp
Before any rules are evaluated, the filter checks whether the packet
matches any state.
If it does, the packet is passed without evaluation of any rules.
.Pp
States are removed after the connection is closed or has timed out.
.Pp
This has several advantages.
Comparing a packet to a state involves checking its sequence numbers.
If the sequence numbers are outside the narrow windows of expected
values, the packet is dropped.
This prevents spoofing attacks, where the attacker sends packets with
a fake source address/port but doesn't know the connection's sequence
numbers.
.Pp
Also, looking up states is usually faster than evaluating rules.
If one has 50 rules, all of them are evaluated sequentially in O(n).
Even with 50000 states, only 16 comparisons are needed to match a
state, since states are stored in a binary search tree that allows
searches in O(log2 n).
.Pp
For instance:
.Bd -literal
    block out all
    block in  all
    pass out proto tcp from any to any         flags S/SA keep state
    pass in  proto tcp from any to any port 25 flags S/SA keep state
.Ed
.Pp
This rule set blocks everything by default.
Only outgoing connections and incoming connection to port 25 are allowed.
The inital packet of each connection has the SYN flag set, will be passed
and creates state.
All further packets of these connections are passed if they match a state.
.Pp
Specifying flags S/SA restricts state creation to the initial SYN
packet of the TCP handshake.
One can also be less restrictive, and allow state creation from
intermediate 
.Pq non-SYN
packets.
This will cause
.Em pf
to synchronize to existing connections, for instance
if one flushes the state table.
.Pp
For UDP, which is stateless by nature, keep state will create state
as well.
UDP packets are matched to states using only host addresses and ports.
.Pp
ICMP messages fall in two categories: ICMP error messages, which always
refer to a TCP or UDP packet, are matched against the refered to connection.
If one keeps state on a TCP connection, and an ICMP source quench message
refering to this TCP connection arrives, it will be matched to the right
state and get passed.
.Pp
For ICMP queries, keep state creates an ICMP state, and
.Em pf
knows how to match ICMP replies to states.
For example
.Bd -literal
    pass out inet proto icmp all icmp-type echoreq keep state
.Ed
.Pp
lets echo requests 
.Pq pings
out, creates state, and matches incoming echo replies correctly to states.
.Pp
Note: nat/rdr rules
.Po
see
.Xr nat.conf 5
.Pc
implicitly create state for connections.
.Sh STATE MODULATION
Much of the security derived from TCP is attributable to how well the
initial sequence numbers (ISNs) are chosen.
Some popular stack implementations choose
.Cm very
poor ISNs thus are normally susceptible to ISN prediction exploits.
By applying a "modulate state" rule to a TCP connection, 
.Em pf
will create a high quality random sequence number for each connection
endpoint.
.Pp
The "modulate state" directive implicitly keeps state on the rule and is
only applicable to TCP connections.
.Pp
For instance:
.Bd -literal
    block out all
    block in  all
    pass out proto tcp from any to any                    modulate state
    pass in  proto tcp from any to any port 25 flags S/SA modulate state
.Ed
.Pp
Caveat:  If
.Em pf
picks up an already established connection
.Po
the firewall was rebooted, the state table was flushed, ...
.Pc
it will not be able to safely modulate the state of that connection.
.Em pf
will fall back and operate as if "keep state" was specified instead.
Without this fallback, modulation would cause both end hosts to
each think that the other had somehow lost sync.
.Pp
Caveat:  If the state table is flushed or the firewall is rebooted,
currently modulated connections can not be continued or picked
up again by the firewall.  State modulation causes the firewall to phase
shift the sequencing of each side of a connection
.Po
add a random number to each side.
.Pc
The sudden withdrawl
of the modulation will appear to each side of the connection that its
peer has suddenly shifted its sequence by a random amount.  Neither side
will be able to recover and the connection will stall then eventually close.
.Sh STATE OPTIONS
Both "keep state" and "modulate state" support the following options:
.Bl -tag -width timeout_seconds -compact
.It Em max number
Limits the number of concurrent states the rule may create.
When this limit is reached, further packets matching the rule that would
create state are dropped, until existing states time out.
.It Em timeout seconds
Changes the timeout values used for states created by this rule.
For a list of all valid timeout names, see
.Xr pf.conf 5 .
.El
.Pp
Multiple options can be specified, separated by commas:
.Bd -literal
    pass in proto tcp from any to any port www flags S/SA \\
      keep state (max 100, tcp.established 60, tcp.closing 5)
.Ed
.Sh NORMALIZATION
Packet normalization is invoked via the
.Pa scrub
directive.
Normalization is used to sanitize packet content in such
a way that there are no ambiguities in packet interpretation on
the receiving side.
.Pp
The normalizer does full IP fragment reassembly to prevent attacks
that confuse intrusion detection systems by sending overlapping
IP fragments.
.Ss no-df
Clears the
.Pa dont-fragment
bit from a matching ip packet.
.Ss min-ttl <number>
Enforces a minimum ttl for matching ip packets.
.Ss max-mss <number>
Enforces a maximum mss for matching tcp packets.
.Pp
Normalization occurs before filtering, scrub rules and pass/block
rules are evaluated independantly.
Hence, their relative position in the rule set is not relevant,
and packets can't be blocked before normalization.
.Sh FRAGMENT HANDLING
IP datagrams (packets) can have a size of up to 65335 bytes.
Most network links, however, have a maximum transmission unit (MTU)
that is significantly lower (1500 bytes is common).
When an IP packet's size exceeds the MTU of the interface it has to
be sent out through, the packet is fragmented.
In general, a fragment only contains an IP header, which is sufficient
for the receiver to reassemble the complete packet.
The headers of subprotocols like TCP, UDP or ICMP are only data payload
on IP level, and such headers are not part of all fragments of a packet.
It's even possible that no fragment contains a complete subprotocol
header, because that header is split among fragments.
.Pp
There are two options for handling fragments in the packet filter:
.Pp
Using scrub rules, fragments can be reassembled by normalization.
In this case, fragments are cached until they form a complete
packet, and only complete packets are passed on to the filter.
The advantage is that filter rules have to deal only with complete
packets, and can ignore fragments.
The drawback of caching fragments is the additional memory cost.
.Pp
The alternative is to filter individual fragments with filter rules.
If no scrub rule applies to a fragment, it is passed to the filter.
Filter rules with matching IP header parameters decide whether the
fragment is passed or blocked, in the same way as complete packets
are filtered.
Without reassembly, fragments can only be filtered based on IP header
fields (source/destination address, protocol), since subprotocol header
fields are not available (TCP/UDP port numbers, ICMP code/type).
The
.Pa fragment
option can be used to restrict filter rules to apply only to
fragments but not complete packets.
Filter rules without the
.Pa fragment
option still apply to fragments, if they only specify IP header fields.
For instance, the rule 'pass in proto tcp from any to any port 80' never
applies to a fragment, even if the fragment is part of a TCP packet with
destination port 80, because without reassembly, this information is not
available for each fragment.
This also means that fragments can't create new or match existing
state table entries, which makes stateful filtering and address
translations (NAT, redirection) for fragments impossible.
.Pp
It's also possible to reassemble only certain fragments by specifying
source or destination addresses or protocols as parameters in scrub
rules.
.Pp
In most cases, the benefits of reassembly outweigh the additional
memory cost, and it's recommended to use scrub rules to reassemble
all fragments.
.Pp
The memory allocated for fragment caching can be limited using
.Xr pfctl 8 .
Once this limit is reached, fragments that would have to be cached
are dropped until other entries time out. The timeout value can
also be adjusted.
.Pp
Currently, only IPv4 fragments are supported and IPv6 fragments
are blocked unconditionally.
