PolarDB:Configure a blacklist rule

更新時間:Sep 04, 2023

You can create, delete, enable, disable, or modify a blacklist rule for a cluster in the PolarDB console. This topic describes what are blacklist rules and how to configure blacklist rules.

Blacklist rules

PolarProxy allows you to configure blacklist rules to block specified types of SQL statements or specific SQL statements.

You can configure blacklist rules in one of the following ways:

  • Fixed rule mode: You can configure common blacklist rules in the PolarDB console. Each rule can be configured to take effect on an Alibaba Cloud account or a cluster. For more information about common blacklist rules, see Add a blacklist rule.

  • Custom parameterized SQL mode: You can parameterize all variables in SQL statements that you want to execute in a database, generate a parameterized template, and record the template in the database. PolarProxy blocks SQL statements that match the parameterized template.

  • Custom SQL mode: You can specify SQL statements to be blocked without the need to parameterize the variables of the statements. SQL statements that use other parameters are not blocked.

Create a blacklist rule

  1. Log on to the PolarDB console.
  2. In the upper-left corner of the console, select the region in which the cluster that you want to manage is deployed.
  3. Find the cluster and click the cluster ID.
  4. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Settings and Management > Security Management.

  5. In the upper-left corner of the SQL Firewall tab, click Add.

  6. In the Create a Rule dialog box, configure required parameters based on the mode that you select.

        • Disable: does not block SQL statements that contain specific functions and specific column names.

      2. Click OK.

    • Custom parameterized SQL mode

      1. If you select custom parameterized SQL mode, configure the required parameters. For more information about the parameters, see Add a blacklist rule.

        Note

        If you select custom parameterized SQL mode, you can disable all blacklist rules in the Configurations parameter described in Table 1.

      2. Click OK.

      3. Connect to the specified database endpoint by using the previously defined database account name. You can specify the SQL statement that you want to block by adding the following hint command before the SQL statement: hint(/* store_to_blacklist */). For example, to block the select id from sqlblack_test where id = 1; statement, run the following command:

        /* store_to_blacklist */ select id from sqlblack_test where id = 1;

        The parameterized template:

        select id from sqlblack_test where id = ?

        The question mark (?) in the template indicates any value.

        Wait for 5 seconds. When you use the account to execute an SQL statement that matches the preceding parameterized template on the specified cluster, PolarProxy blocks the statement. The following information is displayed after an SQL statement is blocked:

        ERROR 1141 (HY000): This SQL is rejected by SQL Firewall. Access denied for user 'xxx'@'x.x.x.x' to database 'xzh': This SQL is in blacklist bl_test.

        bl_test is the name of the blacklist rule table.

      Note
      • If you use the MySQL command line, you must add the -c option. Otherwise, the hint command does not take effect.

      • The parameterized SQL statement takes effect after 5 seconds.

    • Custom SQL mode

      1. If you select custom SQL mode, configure the required parameters. For more information about the parameters, see Add a blacklist rule.

        Note

        If you select custom SQL mode, you can disable all options in the Configurations parameter described in Table 1.

      2. Click OK.

      3. Connect to the specified database endpoint by using the previously defined database account name. You can specify the SQL statement that you want to block by adding the following hint command before the SQL statement: hint(/* orginal_store_to_blacklist */). For example, to block the update t set k = 2 where id = 2; statement, run the following command:

        /* orginal_store_to_blacklist */ update t set k = 2 where id = 2;

        Wait for 5 seconds. When you use the account to execute the update t set k = 2 where id = 2; statement on the specified cluster, PolarProxy blocks the statement. However, SQL statements that use other parameters are not blocked. The following information is displayed after an SQL statement is blocked:

        ERROR 1141 (HY000): This SQL is rejected by SQL Firewall. Access denied for user 'xxx'@'x.x.x.x' to database 'xzh': This SQL is in blacklist bl_test.

        bl_test is the name of the blacklist rule table.

      Note
      • If you use the MySQL command line, you must add the -c option. Otherwise, the hint command does not take effect.

      • The parameterized SQL statement takes effect after 5 seconds.

Cancel a blacklist rule created in custom parameterized SQL or custom SQL mode

  • Cancel a blacklist rule created in custom parameterized SQL mode

    You can use one of the following methods to cancel a blacklist rule created in custom parameterized SQL mode:

    • See the Enable or disable a blacklist rule or Delete a blacklist rule section of this topic.

      Note

      If you disable a blacklist rule created in custom parameterized SQL mode only in the PolarDB console and do not remove the parameterized SQL statements from the proxy_auditing.sql_list table, the rule of the same account still takes effect when you enable the blacklist rule again in the PolarDB console.

    • Connect to the primary node in the cluster by using the super administrator account and remove the SQL statements from the proxy_auditing.sql_list table. The parameterized SQL statement is no longer blocked after 5 seconds.

      Note

      When you remove the SQL statements from the proxy_auditing.sql_list table, do not execute the DROP statement to remove the table.

  • Cancel a blacklist rule created in custom SQL mode

    You can use one of the following methods to cancel a blacklist rule created in custom SQL mode:

    • See the Enable or disable a blacklist rule or Delete a blacklist rule section of this topic.

      Note

      If you disable a blacklist rule created in custom parameterized SQL mode only in the PolarDB console and do not remove the parameterized SQL statements from the proxy_auditing.org_sql_list table, the rule of the same account still takes effect when you enable the blacklist rule again in the PolarDB console.

    • Connect to the primary node in the cluster by using the super administrator account and remove the SQL statements from the proxy_auditing.org_sql_list table. The SQL statement is no longer blocked after 5 seconds.

      Note

      When you remove the SQL statements from the proxy_auditing.org_sql_list table, do not execute the DROP statement to remove the table.
