Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::URIDNSBL(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::URIDNSBL(3)
NAME
URIDNSBL - look up URLs against DNS blocklists
SYNOPSIS
loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::URIDNSBL
uridnsbl URIBL_SBLXBL sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org. TXT
DESCRIPTION
This works by analysing message text and HTML for URLs, extracting the domain names from those, querying their NS records
in DNS, resolving the hostnames used therein, and querying various DNS blocklists for those IP addresses. This is quite
effective.
USER SETTINGS
skip_uribl_checks ( 0 | 1 ) (default: 0)
Turning on the skip_uribl_checks setting will disable the URIDNSBL plugin.
By default, SpamAssassin will run URI DNSBL checks. Individual URI blocklists may be disabled selectively by setting
a score of a corresponding rule to 0 or through the uridnsbl_skip_domain parameter.
See also a related configuration parameter skip_rbl_checks, which controls the DNSEval plugin (documented in the Conf
man page).
uridnsbl_skip_domain domain1 domain2 ...
Specify a domain, or a number of domains, which should be skipped for the URIBL checks. This is very useful to
specify very common domains which are not going to be listed in URIBLs.
clear_uridnsbl_skip_domain [domain1 domain2 ...]
If no argument is given, then clears the entire list of domains declared by uridnsbl_skip_domain configuration
directives so far. Any subsequent uridnsbl_skip_domain directives will start creating a new list of skip domains.
When given a list of domains as arguments, only the specified domains are removed from the list of skipped domains.
RULE DEFINITIONS AND PRIVILEGED SETTINGS
uridnsbl NAME_OF_RULE dnsbl_zone lookuptype
Specify a lookup. "NAME_OF_RULE" is the name of the rule to be used, "dnsbl_zone" is the zone to look up IPs in, and
"lookuptype" is the type of lookup (TXT or A). Note that you must also define a body-eval rule calling
"check_uridnsbl()" to use this.
Example:
uridnsbl URIBL_SBLXBL sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org. TXT
body URIBL_SBLXBL eval:check_uridnsbl('URIBL_SBLXBL')
describe URIBL_SBLXBL Contains a URL listed in the SBL/XBL blocklist
uridnssub NAME_OF_RULE dnsbl_zone lookuptype subtest
Specify a DNSBL-style domain lookup with a sub-test. "NAME_OF_RULE" is the name of the rule to be used, "dnsbl_zone"
is the zone to look up IPs in, and "lookuptype" is the type of lookup (TXT or A).
"subtest" is a sub-test to run against the returned data. The sub-test may be in one of the following forms: m,
n1-n2, or n/m, where n,n1,n2,m can be any of: decimal digits, 0x followed by up to 8 hexadecimal digits, or an IPv4
address in quad-dot form. The 'A' records (IPv4 dotted address) as returned by DNSBLs lookups are converted into a
numerical form (r) and checked against the specified sub-test as follows: for a range n1-n2 the following must be
true: (r >= n1 && r <= n2); for a n/m form the following must be true: (r & m) == (n & m); for a single value in
quad-dot form the following must be true: r == n; for a single decimal or hex form the following must be true: (r &
n) != 0.
Some typical examples of a sub-test are: 127.0.1.2, 127.0.1.20-127.0.1.39, 127.0.1.0/255.255.255.0,
0.0.0.16/0.0.0.16, 0x10/0x10, 16, 0x10 .
Note that, as with "uridnsbl", you must also define a body-eval rule calling "check_uridnsbl()" to use this.
Example:
uridnssub URIBL_DNSBL_4 dnsbl.example.org. A 127.0.0.4
uridnssub URIBL_DNSBL_8 dnsbl.example.org. A 8
urirhsbl NAME_OF_RULE rhsbl_zone lookuptype
Specify a RHSBL-style domain lookup. "NAME_OF_RULE" is the name of the rule to be used, "rhsbl_zone" is the zone to
look up domain names in, and "lookuptype" is the type of lookup (TXT or A). Note that you must also define a body-
eval rule calling "check_uridnsbl()" to use this.
An RHSBL zone is one where the domain name is looked up, as a string; e.g. a URI using the domain "foo.com" will
cause a lookup of "foo.com.uriblzone.net". Note that hostnames are stripped from the domain used in the URIBL
lookup, so the domain "foo.bar.com" will look up "bar.com.uriblzone.net", and "foo.bar.co.uk" will look up
"bar.co.uk.uriblzone.net".
If an URI consists of an IP address instead of a hostname, the IP address is looked up (using the standard reversed
quads method) in each "rhsbl_zone".
Example:
urirhsbl URIBL_RHSBL rhsbl.example.org. TXT
urirhssub NAME_OF_RULE rhsbl_zone lookuptype subtest
Specify a RHSBL-style domain lookup with a sub-test. "NAME_OF_RULE" is the name of the rule to be used, "rhsbl_zone"
is the zone to look up domain names in, and "lookuptype" is the type of lookup (TXT or A).
"subtest" is a sub-test to run against the returned data. The sub-test may be in one of the following forms: m,
n1-n2, or n/m, where n,n1,n2,m can be any of: decimal digits, 0x followed by up to 8 hexadecimal digits, or an IPv4
address in quad-dot form. The 'A' records (IPv4 dotted address) as returned by DNSBLs lookups are converted into a
numerical form (r) and checked against the specified sub-test as follows: for a range n1-n2 the following must be
true: (r >= n1 && r <= n2); for a n/m form the following must be true: (r & m) == (n & m); for a single value in
quad-dot form the following must be true: r == n; for a single decimal or hex form the following must be true: (r &
n) != 0.
Some typical examples of a sub-test are: 127.0.1.2, 127.0.1.20-127.0.1.39, 127.2.3.0/255.255.255.0,
0.0.0.16/0.0.0.16, 0x10/0x10, 16, 0x10 .
Note that, as with "urirhsbl", you must also define a body-eval rule calling "check_uridnsbl()" to use this.
Example:
urirhssub URIBL_RHSBL_4 rhsbl.example.org. A 127.0.0.4
urirhssub URIBL_RHSBL_8 rhsbl.example.org. A 8
urinsrhsbl NAME_OF_RULE rhsbl_zone lookuptype
Perform a RHSBL-style domain lookup against the contents of the NS records for each URI. In other words, a URI using
the domain "foo.com" will cause an NS lookup to take place; assuming that domain has an NS of "ns0.bar.com", that
will cause a lookup of "bar.com.uriblzone.net". Note that hostnames are stripped from both the domain used in the
URI, and the domain in the lookup.
"NAME_OF_RULE" is the name of the rule to be used, "rhsbl_zone" is the zone to look up domain names in, and
"lookuptype" is the type of lookup (TXT or A).
Note that, as with "urirhsbl", you must also define a body-eval rule calling "check_uridnsbl()" to use this.
urinsrhssub NAME_OF_RULE rhsbl_zone lookuptype subtest
Specify a RHSBL-style domain-NS lookup, as above, with a sub-test. "NAME_OF_RULE" is the name of the rule to be
used, "rhsbl_zone" is the zone to look up domain names in, and "lookuptype" is the type of lookup (TXT or A).
"subtest" is the sub-test to run against the returned data; see <urirhssub>.
Note that, as with "urirhsbl", you must also define a body-eval rule calling "check_uridnsbl()" to use this.
urifullnsrhsbl NAME_OF_RULE rhsbl_zone lookuptype
Perform a RHSBL-style domain lookup against the contents of the NS records for each URI. In other words, a URI using
the domain "foo.com" will cause an NS lookup to take place; assuming that domain has an NS of "ns0.bar.com", that
will cause a lookup of "ns0.bar.com.uriblzone.net". Note that hostnames are stripped from the domain used in the
URI.
"NAME_OF_RULE" is the name of the rule to be used, "rhsbl_zone" is the zone to look up domain names in, and
"lookuptype" is the type of lookup (TXT or A).
Note that, as with "urirhsbl", you must also define a body-eval rule calling "check_uridnsbl()" to use this.
urifullnsrhssub NAME_OF_RULE rhsbl_zone lookuptype subtest
Specify a RHSBL-style domain-NS lookup, as above, with a sub-test. "NAME_OF_RULE" is the name of the rule to be
used, "rhsbl_zone" is the zone to look up domain names in, and "lookuptype" is the type of lookup (TXT or A).
"subtest" is the sub-test to run against the returned data; see <urirhssub>.
Note that, as with "urirhsbl", you must also define a body-eval rule calling "check_uridnsbl()" to use this.
tflags NAME_OF_RULE ips_only
Only URIs containing IP addresses as the "host" component will be matched against the named "urirhsbl"/"urirhssub"
rule.
tflags NAME_OF_RULE domains_only
Only URIs containing a non-IP-address "host" component will be matched against the named "urirhsbl"/"urirhssub" rule.
ADMINISTRATOR SETTINGS
uridnsbl_max_domains N (default: 20)
The maximum number of domains to look up.
NOTES
The "uridnsbl_timeout" option has been obsoleted by the "rbl_timeout" option. See the "Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf" POD for
details on "rbl_timeout".
