ModSecurity 2.x Command-line build notes for Windows

by Tom Donovam, 4/2/2011

Prerequisites:

Dependency Tested with Note
Microsoft Visual Studio C++ Visual Studio 2013 (aka VC12)
CMake build system CMake v3.8.2
Apache 2.4.x Apache 2.4.27 Apache must be built from source using the same Visual Studio compiler as mod_security.
PCRE, Perl Compatible Regular Expression library PCRE v8.40
LibXML2 LibXML2 v2.9.4
Lua Scripting Language Lua v5.3.4
cURL multiprotocol file transfer library cURL v7.54.0

Before building

The directory where you build software from source ( C:\work in this exmaple) must contain the Apache source you used to build the Apache web serverand the mod_security source

Apache source is in             C:\work\httpd-2.4.27    in this example.
Apache has been installed to    C:\Apache2427           in this example.
Mod_security source is in       C:\work\mod_security    in this example.

Download and untar the prerequisite library sources:

Download pcre-8.40.tar.gz     from ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/
untar it into C:\work\  creating C:\work\pcre-8.40

Download libxml2-2.9.4.tar.gz    from ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/
untar it into C:\work\ creating C:\work\libxml2-2.9.4

Download lua-5.3.4.tar.gz from http://www.lua.org/ftp/
untar it into C:\work\ creating C:\work\lua-5.3.4

Download curl-7.54.0.tar.gz from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
untar it into C:\work\ creating C:\work\curl-7.54.0

Setup your build environment:

  1. The PATH environment variable must include the Visual Studio variables as set by vsvars32.bat

  2. The PATH environment variable must also include the CMAKE bin\ directory

  3. Set an environment variable to the Apache source code directory:

    SET HTTPD_BUILD=C:\work\httpd-2.4.27

Optional:

If OpenSSL and zlib support were included when you built Apache 2.4, and you want them available to LibXML2 and cURL

  1. Ensure that cURL and LibXML2 can find the OpenSSL and zlib includes and libraries that Apache was built with.
    SET INCLUDE=%INCLUDE%;%HTTPD_BUILD%\srclib\openssl\inc32;%HTTPD_BUILD%\srclib\zlib
    SET LIB=%LIB%;%HTTPD_BUILD%\srclib\openssl\out32dll;%HTTPD_BUILD%\srclib\zlib
  1. Ensure that cURL and libXML2 don't use the static zlib library: zlib.lib. Force cURL and libXML2 to use zdll.lib instead, requiring zlib1.dll at runtime:
    IF EXIST %HTTPD_BUILD%\srclib\zlib\zlib.lib  DEL %HTTPD_BUILD%\srclib\zlib\zlib.lib

Build

NMAKE

cURL-7.54.0

CD C:\work\curl-7.54.0
CMAKE   -G "NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=True -DCURL_ZLIB=True
NMAKE

ModSecurity-2.9.x

CD C:\work\mod_security\apache2
NMAKE -f Makefile.win APACHE=C:\Apache2427 PCRE=C:\work\pcre-8.40 LIBXML2=C:\work\libxml2-2.9.4 LUA=C:\work\lua-5.3.4\src

Install ModSecurity and run Apache

Copy these five files to C:\Apache2427\bin:

C:\work\pcre-8.40\pcre.dll C:\Apache2427\bin\
C:\work\lua-5.3.4\src\lua5.1.dll C:\Apache2427\bin\
C:\work\libxml2-2.9.4\win32\bin.msvc\libxml2.dll  C:\Apache2427\bin\
C:\work\curl-7.54.0\libcurl.dll  C:\Apache2427\bin\
C:\work\mod_security\apache2\mlogc-src\mlogc.exe

Copy this one file to C:\Apache2427\modules:

C:\work\mod_security\apache2\mod_security2.so

You may also copy C:\work\curl-7.54.0\curl.exe to C:\Apache2427\bin, if you want to use the cURL command-line program.

Download the core rules from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mod-security/files/modsecurity-crs/0-CURRENT/ and unzip them into C:\Apache2427\conf\modsecurity_crs

Add configuration directives to your Apache conf\httpd.conf:

# mod_security requires mod_unique_id
LoadModule unique_id_module modules/mod_unique_id.so

# mod_security
LoadModule security2_module  modules/mod_security2.so
<IfModule security2_module>
    SecRuleEngine On
    SecDataDir   logs
    Include conf/modsecurity_crs/*.conf
    Include conf/modsecurity_crs/base_rules/*.conf
    SecAuditEngine RelevantOnly
    SecAuditLogRelevantStatus "^(?:5|4\d[^4])"
    SecAuditLogType Serial
    SecAuditLogParts ABCDEFGHZ
    SecAuditLog logs/modsecurity.log
</IfModule>

Optional: Build and configure the ModSecurity-2.x MLOGC piped-logging program

Edit the top of C:\work\mod_security\apache2\mlogc-src\Makefile.win and set your local paths

    # Path to Apache httpd installation
    BASE = C:\Apache2427

    # Paths to required libraries
    PCRE = C:\work\pcre-8.40
    CURL = C:\work\curl-7.54.0

    # Linking libraries
    LIBS = $(BASE)\lib\libapr-1.lib \
           $(BASE)\lib\libaprutil-1.lib \
           $(PCRE)\pcre.lib \
           $(CURL)\libcurl_imp.lib \
           wsock32.lib

Build the mlogc.exe program:

    CD  C:\work\mod_security_trunk\mlogc
    NMAKE -f Makefile.win

Copy mlocg.exe to C:\Apache2427\bin\

Create a new command file C:\Apache2427\bin\mlogc.bat with one line:

    C:\Apache2427\bin\mlogc.exe C:\Apache2427\conf\mlogc.conf

Create a new configuration file C:\Apache2427\conf\mlogc.conf to control the piped-logging program mlogc.exe. Here is an example conf\mlogc.conf:

CollectorRoot       "C:/Apache2427/logs"
ConsoleURI          "https://localhost:8888/rpc/auditLogReceiver"
SensorUsername      "test"
SensorPassword      "testtest"
LogStorageDir       "data"
TransactionLog      "mlogc-transaction.log"
QueuePath           "mlogc-queue.log"
ErrorLog            "mlogc-error.log"
LockFile            "mlogc.lck"
KeepEntries         0
ErrorLogLevel       2
MaxConnections      10
MaxWorkerRequests   1000
TransactionDelay    50
StartupDelay        5000
CheckpointInterval  15
ServerErrorTimeout  60

Change the SecAuditLog directive in conf\httpd.conf to pipe the log data to mlogc instead of writing them to a file:

SecAuditLog |C:/Apache2427/bin/mlogc.bat
