Hey fedi 
Does anyone know a good opensource firewall for a Linux server with an admin panel in web or tui?

I want to see recent tcp & udp connections, preferrably some info about their contents (e.g. compute JA4 fingerprint for TLS, extract domain from DNS request) and be able to immediately block by source/dest IP subnet, ASN, geoip, maybe even by JA4.

I guess i can just google it but i want to hear your recommendations. Firewall is a high-privileged software that have to be trusted anyway.

Thank you

@darkcat09 I have always relied on a proxy server for outbound security.

Very interested to know how outbound firewall functionality is going these days.

For inbound firewall stuff I would use OPNsense with Crowdsec and an IDS to get at least some reactive capability.

I mean if you want to know who the bad guy is newsflash it's pretty much always the dude bombing hospitals and apartment buildings right? So you know, if that's a thing you do, you're not my friend and I oppose your works.

It's just people around me seem to be very keen to notice when it's our enemies doing the atrocities and not when it's us. Well I can't do that, my brain doesn't work that way.

I am against invasions. I am against hospital bombers. I am for apartment building dwellers.

yet another reminder that we're all just clinging to this thing by some miracle and we should all chill the fuck out

UPDATE: A member of ShinyHunters told us that they took the stolen European Commission's data directly from TeamPCP. In other words, the hackers are hacking each other now.

Really do not like the phrase 'blast radius' as it is currently being used in cybersecurity. 

@susanlup Cyber security language in generaal is over militarized.

I try to write without using that language, but it is insidious and eventually you start thinking using the terms that others still use.

i know i'm an AI skeptic, but i did not expect "virally popular agent does no authentication checks before escalating system privileges"

It never gets old seeing what humanity can do with math and science while we continue to battle against our base instincts down here on Earth.
