#D7CX: The goal is to deprecate this module on the day that Drupal 7 is released. Please review the patch there to help us achieve this goal.

PHPIDS module adds a security layer based on http://www.php-ids.org and is interesting if you want to know how and when (anonymous) users try to break your site by logging their attacks. It can send a mail, redirect the (anonymous) user or (not yet implemented) automatically block user/ip access after a certain level of impact has been reached. On the settings page you can choose what you want to do with anonymous and authenticated users (ignore, log, log & action).

Installation instructions are in the README.txt included in all releases. Please check phpids settings and status report after installing or upgrading phpids module

Warning: PHP5 5.1.6 or better. 5.2.x is recommended.

Example to reduce false positives (since 6.x-1.9)

To reduce false positives from PHPIDS which flood your logs, sends warning mails or block unsuspicious user activities, follow these steps to configure your PHPIDS correct.

  1. Pickup a false positive log-entry from Administer->Reports->Recent log entries by filtering for phpids
  2. Select the variable name which includes possible false values like html or json from this log entry
  3. Enter this variable name coma seperated into html and/or json included fields in PHPIDS admin form (Administer->Site Configuration->Logging and alerts->PHPIDS settings)
  4. Save your new PHPIDS settings
  5. Now the total impact value should be lower than before

Tested PHPIDS versions:

  • PHPIDS 0.6.3.1 (since 6.x-1.10)
  • PHPIDS 0.6.2
  • PHPIDS 0.6.1.1
  • PHPIDS 0.6
  • PHPIDS 0.5.4 (very old)

Roadmap

With D7 coming soon, I'll develope a new branch version for all active drupal versions. I hope to have a stable PHPIDS module ready with launch of D7.

  • phpids-7.x-1.0
  • phpids-6.x-2.0
  • phpids-5.x-3.0
