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:
./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):
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.
