[SOLVED] Backup OPSsense configuration with wget

[orsomannaro]

I'm migrating from PfSense to OPNsense.

To backup the configuration settings I'm following this guide:

https://wikit.firewall-services.com/doku.php/tuto/sauvegardes/sauvegarde_pfsense_2

but the script for OPNsense doesn't work:

Code Select Expand


#!/bin/bash -e

OUT='/var/backups/opnsense'
TMP=$(mktemp -d)
URL='https://opnsense.domain.tld'
LOGIN='backupusr'
PASS='p@ssw0rd'

# Submit the login form with the previous values, and save a new CSRF token
/usr/bin/wget -q -O /dev/null --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies $TMP/cookies.txt --no-check-certificate  \
   --post-data "login=Login&usernamefld=$LOGIN&passwordfld=$PASS" $URL/diag_backup.php

# Save only the config
/usr/bin/wget -q --keep-session-cookies --load-cookies $TMP/cookies.txt --save-cookies $TMP/cookies.txt --no-check-certificate \
    --post-data "download=Download%20Configuration&donotbackuprrd=yes" $URL/diag_backup.php -O $OUT/config-pfsense.xml \

rm -f $TMP/*.txt
rmdir $TMP


Somebody can help me to adjust the script code in the right way?


Thanks for your help.

We don't have bash, replace:

#!/bin/bash -e

with

#!/bin/sh -e

It looks like there is nothing bash-specific in there, but I didn't verify.


Cheers,
Franco

Hi Franco.

Thanks for your reply, but change /bin/bash with /bin/sh doesn't solve the problem.

I suppose that the problem resides in the wget instruction parameters.

[fabian]

it could be your credentials as they need to be URL encoded.

[franco]

We don't have an error message. It's very hard to debug this way. :)

[fabian]

can you remove the -q which is quet so you get some output?

The scripts seem to need to be updated with the new csrf stuff:

Code Select Expand


felix@plex: backups$ grep magic diag_backup.php
felix@plex: backups$ grep csrf *
diag_backup.php:            <form class="clearfix" id="iform" name="iform" method="post" autocomplete="off" action="/diag_backup.php"><input type="hidden" id="__opnsense_csrf" name="UVZLYVFKSUlPbEdKb3RRL3ZkRjhOQT09" value="VlR2SUppNzFBYUJyR1hGUVVSQXErZz09"\/>
felix@plex: backups$

I've played a bit, but haven't hacked together the right values. Will try a bit later.

[fabian]

you need to grep for this line using something like

Code Select Expand

grep "__opnsense_csrf"

and then use

Code Select Expand

cut -d'"' -fnumber
to get the key and the value

Hmm. A little closer, but I still get a 403 as I tried to modify some of the code:

Code Select Expand


wget -O- --keep-session-cookies --save-cookies cookies.txt --no-check-certificate http://192.168.86.1/diag_backup.php  | grep "__opnsense_csrf" | sed 's/.*value="\(.*\)".*/\1/' > csrf.txt

wget -O- --keep-session-cookies --load-cookies cookies.txt --save-cookies cookies.txt --no-check-certificate --post-data "login=login&usernamefld=root&passwordfld=MYPASSWORD&__opnsense_csrf=$(cat csrf.txt)" http://192.168.86.1/diag_backup.php  | grep "__opnsense_csrf" | sed 's/.*value="\(.*\)".*/\1/' > csrf2.txt


Error:

Code Select Expand

--2017-03-03 19:39:50--  http://192.168.86.1/diag_backup.php

I'm getting a token from the first wget:

Code Select Expand


cat csrf.txt

I made my own script to help you out. You can download it here:
https://github.com/fabianfrz/scripts/blob/master/OPNsense/backup_over_http.rb

It is a quick and dirty solution but it seems to work.

[orsomannaro]

Thank you all for your help!


> can you remove the -q

The error is: 403 Forbidden


> I made my own script to help you out

Thank you very much Fabian!

I installed ruby. Ubuntu server 16.04 repository version is: ruby 2.3.1p112 (2016-04-26).

Runnin your script I have this error:

/usr/local/bin/Backuppc_OPNsense.rb:42:in `<main>': undefined method `scan' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)

In OPNsense I see the connection logs with pass status.

I'm searching this error on internet ...

[fabian]

this means you do not have the string "__opnsense_csrf" in the body. Do you use 17.1.2?
For debugging, can you add those three lines:

Code Select Expand


puts d.code
puts d.body
exit 0


after d is assigned (line 40)?

[guest15389]

I changed the URL to just http for me and that worked fine for me.

I get the backup file.

I'm running 17.1.2.

I'm running OPNsense 16.7

I've updated your script to use 4443 port:

Code Select Expand


indexpage = URI("https://#{SERVER_IP}:4443/index.php")
backuppage = URI("https://#{SERVER_IP}:4443/diag_backup.php")


For debugging, can you add those three lines:

Code Select Expand


puts d.code
puts d.body
exit 0

after d is assigned (line 40)?

This is th output:

Code Select Expand

Thanks for your response, it was not required anymore to add this code to debug. You should always mention any changes you did which may break some scripts like a changed port.
