ngxluawaf is an OpenResty web application firewall that uses Lua to filter malicious HTTP requests and block web attacks. It operates as a programmable request filter and IP access controller for Nginx, providing a security layer to identify and block unauthorized scanners, fuzzing attempts, and abnormal network requests. The project includes capabilities for HTTP layer 7 DDoS mitigation by restricting request frequency per IP address. It further secures the environment by restricting access to sensitive archives and blocking script execution in upload directories to prevent data leakage.
Filters incoming requests for common injection and fuzzing attempts using configurable regular expression rules.
