[WP fail2ban Blocklist] maxretry must be set to 1Security

The maxretry setting in a fail2ban jail controls how many times an IP address can trigger events before being blocked. Any changes to the fail2ban settings must be made by your server administrator.

The Blocklist Network Service (BNS) provides IP addresses that should be banned immediately. To do that, maxretry must be set to 1.

In the wordpress-hard jail maxretry is currently set to 3

If setting maxretry = 1 is not suitable for your requirements you will need to use a custom jail for the Blocklist.

What shall I do?

Thanks for the question - that’s a pretty useless error message, isn’t it? I’ll fix that in 5.3.4.

Can you post your config? They’re likely to be in /etc/fail2ban/ (again, I’ll add that to 5.3.4).
