# WageNet IP Ban List A small repository that publishes the current WageNet IP blocklist. The list is generated from WageNet threat detection and exported as a flat text file for easy consumption by firewalls, web servers, and other tooling. ## What’s in this repo - `banned.txt`: newline‑separated IPv4 addresses to block. Comment lines start with `#` and may include a timestamp and count. - `update.sh`: helper script that copies a source list into the repo, commits, and pushes updates. - `LICENSE`: license for this repository (GPL‑3.0). ## File format - Plain text, UTF‑8. - Lines beginning with `#` are comments/metadata. - Each non‑comment line contains a single IPv4 address. Example: ``` # WageNet IP Blocklist - Last Updated 2025-08-17 00:00:01 # 130 IPs. 172.0.0.1 10.10.2.38 ... ``` ## How updates happen The blocklist is periodically generated by WageNet and published by committing a fresh `banned.txt`. The included `update.sh` script can be used to automate this from the system that produces the list. Script defaults (override with flags): - `-s`: source file path (default: `/var/www/html/banned.txt`) - `-d`: git repository directory (default: `/git/repository`) - `-f`: destination filename inside the repo (default: `banned.txt`) Example usage: ```bash ./update.sh -s /var/www/html/banned.txt -d /git/repository -f banned.txt ``` To automate, add a cron entry on the generating host (example runs hourly): ```bash 0 * * * * /path/to/update.sh -s /var/www/html/banned.txt -d /git/repository -f banned.txt >/tmp/wagenet-update.log 2>&1 ``` ## Using the blocklist - Ingest the file directly in your tooling (e.g., fail2ban, WAF, or custom scripts). - Convert to firewall rules (iptables/nftables) with a simple wrapper that reads each line and applies a drop rule. - For web servers (nginx/apache), generate `deny` directives from the list. You can use the link to the raw text file in this repository to directly reference it. ``` https://git.jordanwages.com/wagesj45/wagenet-ip-ban-list/raw/branch/main/banned.txt ``` Note: Always validate the list for your environment and merge with any allowlists you maintain. ## Appealing If you feel your IP is in this list by mistake, please [file an issue](https://git.jordanwages.com/wagesj45/wagenet-ip-ban-list/issues) to appeal. ## Contributing `banned.txt` is generated content. Please open issues or PRs for improvements to `update.sh`, documentation, or format clarifications rather than manual edits to the list. ## License Distributed under the GPL‑3.0 license.
