Description

Configure firewalld to restrict loopback traffic to the lo interface. The loopback traffic must be trusted by assigning the lo interface to the firewalld trusted zone. However, the loopback traffic must be restricted to the loopback interface as an anti-spoofing measure. To configure firewalld to restrict loopback traffic to the lo interface, run the following commands:


sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-rich-rule='rule family=ipv4 source address="127.0.0.1" destination not address="127.0.0.1" drop'
sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-rich-rule='rule family=ipv6 source address="::1" destination not address="::1" drop'

To ensure firewalld settings are applied in runtime, run the following command:

firewall-cmd --reload

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.

Remediation

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 rpm --quiet -q kernel; then

if ! rpm -q --quiet "firewalld" ; then
    yum install -y "firewalld"
fi

ipv4_rule='rule family=ipv4 source address="127.0.0.1" destination not address="127.0.0.1" drop'
ipv6_rule='rule family=ipv6 source address="::1" destination not address="::1" drop'

if test "$(stat -c %d:%i /)" != "$(stat -c %d:%i /proc/1/root/.)"; then
    firewall-offline-cmd --zone=trusted --add-rich-rule="${ipv4_rule}"
    firewall-offline-cmd --zone=trusted --add-rich-rule="${ipv6_rule}"
elif systemctl is-active firewalld; then
    firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-rich-rule="${ipv4_rule}"
    firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-rich-rule="${ipv6_rule}"
    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.
