An open source, enterprise-grade, high-performance Web Application Firewall written in Golang

Golang Firewall

Coraza is an open source, enterprise-grade, high performance Web Application Firewall (WAF) ready to protect your beloved applications. It written in Go, supports ModSecurity SecLang rulesets and is 100% compatible with the OWASP Core Rule Set.

Key Features:

  • ⇲ Drop-in – Coraza is a drop-in alternative to replace the soon to be abandoned Trustwave ModSecurity Engine and supports industry standard SecLang rule sets.
  • fire Security – Coraza runs the OWASP Core Rule Set (CRS) to protect your web applications from a wide range of attacks, including the OWASP Top Ten, with a minimum of false alerts. CRS protects from many common attack categories including: SQL Injection (SQLi), Cross Site Scripting (XSS), PHP & Java Code Injection, HTTPoxy, Shellshock, Scripting/Scanner/Bot Detection & Metadata & Error Leakages.
  • electric_plug Extensible – Coraza is a library at its core, with many integrations to deploy on-premise Web Application Firewall instances. Audit Loggers, persistence engines, operators, actions, create your own functionalities to extend Coraza as much as you want.
  • rocket Performance – From huge websites to small blogs, Coraza can handle the load with minimal performance impact. Check our Benchmarks
  • ﹡ Simplicity – Anyone is able to understand and modify the Coraza source code. It is easy to extend Coraza with new functionality.
  • speech_balloon Community – Coraza is a community project, contributions are accepted and all ideas will be considered. Find contributor guidance in the CONTRIBUTION document.

Coraza open-source project Core Usage

Coraza can be used as a library for your Go program to implement a security middleware or integrate it with existing application & webservers.

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"github.com/corazawaf/coraza/v3"
)

func main() {
	// First we initialize our waf and our seclang parser
	waf, err := coraza.NewWAF(coraza.NewWAFConfig().
		WithDirectives(`SecRule REMOTE_ADDR "@rx .*" "id:1,phase:1,deny,status:403"`))
	// Now we parse our rules
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}

	// Then we create a transaction and assign some variables
    tx := waf.NewTransaction()
	defer func() {
		tx.ProcessLogging()
		tx.Close()
	}()
	tx.ProcessConnection("127.0.0.1", 8080, "127.0.0.1", 12345)

	// Finally we process the request headers phase, which may return an interruption
	if it := tx.ProcessRequestHeaders(); it != nil {
		fmt.Printf("Transaction was interrupted with status %d\n", it.Status)
	}
}
