BBQ Firewall – Fast & Powerful Firewall Security

Description

Install, activate, and done!
Powerful protection from WP’s fastest firewall plugin.

BBQ Firewall is a lightweight, super-fast plugin that protects your site against a wide range of threats. BBQ checks all incoming traffic and quietly blocks bad requests containing nasty stuff like eval(, base64_, and excessively long request-strings. This is a simple yet solid solution for sites that are unable to use a strong Apache/.htaccess firewall.

FAQ

How to test that the plugin is working?

To test that the plugin is working, you can request any of the blocked patterns. For example, visit your site’s homepage and enter the following URL:

https://example.com/eval(

Replace example.com with your site’s actual domain. If BBQ is active, the request for that URL will be blocked (with a « 403 Forbidden » status). This means the plugin is working properly. You can test other patterns as well. To view all the patterns blocked by BBQ, look at the function bbq_core() located in block-bad-queries.php.

Proposez-vous des extensions de sécurité ?

Yes, three of them:

Versions Pro avec plus de fonctionnalités disponibles sur Plugin Planet.

Ai-je besoin d’autre chose pour que BBQ fonctionne ?

Non, installez-le et relaxez-vous en sachant que BBQ protège votre site des mauvaises requêtes.

Where are the plugin settings?

No settings needed for BBQ! Everything is done automatically behind the scenes. Zero configuration required. The free version of BBQ is strictly plug-n-play, set-it-and-forget-it, with no settings to configure whatsoever. Just install, activate, and enjoy better security and robust protection against malicious requests. The Pro version of BBQ is just as fast and simple to use, but is much more powerful and includes robust settings to customize and fine-tune your firewall.

Is BBQ free version compatible with Wordfence?

Oui BBQ gratuit et BBQ Pro sont tous les deux compatibles avec toute extension écrite selon l’API WordPress. Et, oui, il y a un bénéfice à utiliser BBQ avec une autre extension de sécurité, y compris Wordfence. Ils protègent contre des menaces différents, utiliser les deux signifie une protection renforcée.

BBQ modifie t-il mon fichier .htaccess ?

Absolument pas. Contrairement à d’autres extensions de sécurité, ni BBQ (version gratuite), ni BBQ Pro ne modifient le fichier .htaccess.

BBQ apporte t-il des modifications à ma base de données WP ?

Non, la version gratuite de BBQ agit au chargement de chaque page. Elle ne procède à aucun changement de la base de données WP.

Est-ce que BBQ bloque les chaînes malveillantes incluses dans les tableaux ?

Yes, BBQ scans any arrays that are included in the URI request. If any matching patterns are found, the request is blocked.

My PHP scanner/checker plugin says there is an error?

For example, if your PHP/plugin scanner reports something like, « found 0x3c62723e which is bad. » Normally you would not want to find such bad strings of code, but there is an exception for security plugins. Think about it: in order to block some nasty string, BBQ must know about it. So each bad string that is blocked by BBQ is included in the plugin « blacklist ». That means, when some PHP scanner looks at BBQ and finds some known bad strings, it just means that the scanner has discovered BBQ’s list of blocked terms. In other words, BBQ contains static strings of non-functional text, in order to match and block malicious requests to your site. I hope this makes sense, feel free to contact me if I may provide any further infos.

Ai-je besoin de WordPress pour exécuter BBQ ?

Nope! BBQ is available in the following flavors:

Can I use BBQ and 7G/8G Firewall at the same time?

Full question: « Except most of the rules overlapping, is it counter productive (site slowing down for example, potential conflicts, bugs) or is there any risks using 7G/8G Firewall + BBQ at the same time? »

Answer: It’s fine to run both BBQ and 7G/8G Firewall at the same time. Both firewalls are super fast, so they won’t slow things down. In other words the two firewalls play well together. The only downside is that some of the rules will be redundant, but there should be no negative impact on performance. The upside is that you get extra protection when using both, as there are variations in the firewall rules and patterns, etc.

My PHP checker found something?

If you are using some PHP checker that’s reporting an error or bad string in BBQ, it’s a false positive and safe to ignore. Why? Because the PHP checker is finding the static strings/patterns that BBQ uses to identify and block bad requests. In other words, your PHP checker is finding a static string thinking it is live code. It’s not. If possible, please take a moment to report this to the developers of your PHP checker. They should be happy to improve the accuracy and quality of their plugin. More info.

How to enable logging?

You can use a free addon to display the total number of blocked requests on the BBQ settings page. Here is a guide that explains how to set it up.

Alternately, BBQ can be configured to log the matching pattern for each blocked request. When match-logging is enabled, BBQ will add a log entry in the site’s default error log. To enable match logging, use the free customize plugin.

Note that the Pro version of BBQ displays the current block count for each firewall rule, like this. All automatic, fiddling with code NOT required 🙂

Hello, I installed and enabled all the functions, including email notifications, BBQ proved to be a very fast and light firewall, it does not strain the system and the server, but I received messages from it that they were looking for holes on my site safe for introducing exploits – BBQ blocks everything so aggressively and writes to me that I am drawing conclusions that this is a very radical and angry firewall)))) But I like it Thanks @specialk
