BitNinja 3.12.10: Interactive CLI and Enhanced SSL Monitoring

The latest BitNinja 3.12.10 release introduces a more interactive experience for system administrators and brings greater flexibility in handling key configurations. With focus on improving usability and monitoring, this version enhances several modules for smoother server protection and management.

BitNinja 3.12.10

CLI Improvements

We’ve introduced a new command for the CLI called bitninjacli-interactive, allowing system administrators to run BitNinja commands through an interactive interface. This makes it easier to test, execute, and explore commands without needing to type them one by one, helping speed up management tasks and reduce errors.

CaptchaHttp Updates

The TrustedProxyLookBackLimit value is now configurable. This enables better processing of the X-Forwarded-For header, improving compatibility with various proxy and load balancer setups. This change supports more accurate IP detection, especially in complex server environments using reverse proxies.

IpFilter Enhancements

The IP filtering module now loads the challenge list into ipset more efficiently. This improvement reduces processing time and ensures faster response when new threats are added to the challenge list.

WAF Pro | SSLTerminating

SSL certificate and configuration file monitoring have been simplified. A unified monitoring solution now handles file changes more effectively. Additionally, inotify limit adjustments help ensure that the monitoring process remains stable, preventing potential service failures even on systems with extensive file structures.

Logging and configuration handling have been improved by:

• Adding detailed logs for excluded users and commands to improve visibility.

• Applying default configuration values when missing, ensuring smooth initialization.

• Fixing configuration loading to address previous inconsistencies.

• Introducing new CLI commands for displaying configuration and status—streamlining troubleshooting and verification processes.
