update

Description

Updates the protection settings in the Web Application Firewall configuration for a WAAS policy. Protection settings allow you define what action is taken when a request is blocked by the Web Application Firewall, such as returning a response code or block page. Only the fields specified in the request body will be updated; all other fields will remain unchanged.

Usage

oci waas protection-settings update [OPTIONS]

Required Parameters

--waas-policy-id [text]

The OCID of the WAAS policy.

Optional Parameters

--allowed-http-methods [text]

The list of allowed HTTP methods. If unspecified, default to [OPTIONS, GET, HEAD, POST]. This setting only applies if a corresponding protection rule is enabled, such as the “Restrict HTTP Request Methods” rule (key: 911100).

Accepted values are:

CONNECT, DELETE, GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, PATCH, POST, PROPFIND, PUT, TRACE
--block-action [text]

If action is set to BLOCK, this specifies how the traffic is blocked when detected as malicious by a protection rule. If unspecified, defaults to SET_RESPONSE_CODE.

Accepted values are:

SET_RESPONSE_CODE, SHOW_ERROR_PAGE
--block-error-page-code [text]

The error code to show on the error page when action is set to BLOCK, blockAction is set to SHOW_ERROR_PAGE, and the traffic is detected as malicious by a protection rule. If unspecified, defaults to 403.

--block-error-page-description [text]

The description text to show on the error page when action is set to BLOCK, blockAction is set to SHOW_ERROR_PAGE, and the traffic is detected as malicious by a protection rule. If unspecified, defaults to Access blocked by website owner. Please contact support.

--block-error-page-message [text]

The message to show on the error page when action is set to BLOCK, blockAction is set to SHOW_ERROR_PAGE, and the traffic is detected as malicious by a protection rule. If unspecified, defaults to ‘Access to the website is blocked.’

--block-response-code [integer]

The response code returned when action is set to BLOCK, blockAction is set to SET_RESPONSE_CODE, and the traffic is detected as malicious by a protection rule. If unspecified, defaults to 403. The list of available response codes: 400, 401, 403, 405, 409, 411, 412, 413, 414, 415, 416, 500, 501, 502, 503, 504, 507.

--force

Perform update without prompting for confirmation.

--from-json [text]

Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--if-match [text]

For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the if-match parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag provided matches the resource’s current etag value.

--is-response-inspected [boolean]

Inspects the response body of origin responses. Can be used to detect leakage of sensitive data. If unspecified, defaults to false.

Note: Only origin responses with a Content-Type matching a value in mediaTypes will be inspected.

--max-argument-count [integer]

The maximum number of arguments allowed to be passed to your application before an action is taken. Arguements are query parameters or body parameters in a PUT or POST request. If unspecified, defaults to 255. This setting only applies if a corresponding protection rule is enabled, such as the “Number of Arguments Limits” rule (key: 960335).

Example:

If `maxArgumentCount` to `2` for the Max Number of Arguments protection rule (key: 960335), the following requests would be blocked: `GET /myapp/path?query=one&query=two&query=three` `POST /myapp/path` with Body `{"argument1":"one","argument2":"two","argument3":"three"}
--max-name-length-per-argument [integer]

The maximum length allowed for each argument name, in characters. Arguements are query parameters or body parameters in a PUT or POST request. If unspecified, defaults to 400. This setting only applies if a corresponding protection rule is enabled, such as the “Values Limits” rule (key: 960208).

--max-response-size-in-ki-b [integer]

The maximum response size to be fully inspected, in binary kilobytes (KiB). Anything over this limit will be partially inspected. If unspecified, defaults to 1024.

--max-total-name-length-of-arguments [integer]

The maximum length allowed for the sum of the argument name and value, in characters. Arguements are query parameters or body parameters in a PUT or POST request. If unspecified, defaults to 64000. This setting only applies if a corresponding protection rule is enabled, such as the “Total Arguments Limits” rule (key: 960341).

--max-wait-seconds [integer]

The maximum time to wait for the work request to reach the state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 1200 seconds.

--media-types [complex type]

The list of media types to allow for inspection, if isResponseInspected is enabled. Only responses with MIME types in this list will be inspected. If unspecified, defaults to [“text/html”, “text/plain”, “text/xml”].

Supported MIME types include:

  • text/html - text/plain - text/asp - text/css - text/x-script - application/json - text/webviewhtml - text/x-java-source - application/x-javascript - application/javascript - application/ecmascript - text/javascript - text/ecmascript - text/x-script.perl - text/x-script.phyton - application/plain - application/xml - text/xml

This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--recommendations-period-in-days [integer]

The length of time to analyze traffic traffic, in days. After the analysis period, WafRecommendations will be populated. If unspecified, defaults to 10.

Use GET /waasPolicies/{waasPolicyId}/wafRecommendations to view WAF recommendations.

--wait-for-state [text]

This operation asynchronously creates, modifies or deletes a resource and uses a work request to track the progress of the operation. Specify this option to perform the action and then wait until the work request reaches a certain state. Multiple states can be specified, returning on the first state. For example, --wait-for-state SUCCEEDED --wait-for-state FAILED would return on whichever lifecycle state is reached first. If timeout is reached, a return code of 2 is returned. For any other error, a return code of 1 is returned.

Accepted values are:

ACCEPTED, CANCELED, CANCELING, FAILED, IN_PROGRESS, SUCCEEDED
--wait-interval-seconds [integer]

Check every --wait-interval-seconds to see whether the work request has reached the state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 30 seconds.

Example using required parameter

Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. Run the command by typing “bash example.sh” and replacing the example parameters with your own.

Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up the OCI configuration and appropriate security policies before trying the examples.
