Description Giovanni Bechis 2024-04-16 14:19:38 UTC
t.co should be removed from uridnsbl_skip_domain list in rules/25_uribl.cf since it's abused.
Comment 1 Benny Pedersen 2024-04-16 14:35:12 UTC
lets blocklist all url forwarders instaed, let it be the rule fro all this kinds of problems, where it hurts

sayed that there is many legetim use of urlforwards, i just dont know them yet

Please don’t. It’s not very smart to lookup those on every domain-bl where they won’t be listed anyway due to colleteral damage.

Yes they are abused, and that’s why there are hashbl modules to coop with this.

This change will only put a burden on the BL operators.

HASHBL plugin won't work because it honors uridnsbl_skip_domain configuration option.
Comment 4 Raymond Dijkxhoorn 2024-04-16 15:55:51 UTC
Hashbl has a seperate skiplist that only applies for hashbl.


Again it’s not smart to lookup those redirectors on uribl level.
You won’t get hits on those!
