Cloudflare and iptables

Hello everybody,

I set an IPTables rules to block SYN, Spams, Floods,.. and I added cloudflare IPs (IP4v) into a whitelist, I always wonder the website generate a 522 Error, when I unblock all banned IPs, the website runs safely.

Below are the rules:

Code:
#!/bin/sh

# Set to 0
iptables -t filter -F
iptables -t filter -X

# Block all
iptables -t filter -P INPUT DROP
iptables -t filter -P FORWARD DROP
iptables -t filter -P OUTPUT DROP


#To block all packets from your own IP
#https://linoxide.com/firewall/block-common-attacks-iptables/
iptables -A INPUT -s MY.SERVER.IP -j DROP
