wordpress: add fail2ban filter and jail

Benedek Nagy requested to merge nbenedek/freedombox:wordpress-fail2ban into master

  • I tested the changes with the VirtualBox image with a bridged network adapter. After ten failed authentication attempts, my IP got blocked as expected.

  • Using the conventional 'wordpress-auth-freedombox' naming didn't seem to work for some reason.

  • This setup uses apache's logs to filter the attempts. A wordpress plugin exists for redirecting the logs to syslog, but that needs to be package

  • Related issue: #1469
