With SWWAF_ABUSEIPDB_KEY set, a client whose history counts an offence
(a broken limit, a ban rule's match or a block rule's refusal, counted
by kind) is checked in the background, at most
SWWAF_ABUSEIPDB_DAILY_BUDGET checks a day, the count kept in
reputation.json. A client, an IPv4 address or an IPv6 /64, is checked by
the address it sent from, and its score serves all its addresses. A
score at or over SWWAF_ABUSEIPDB_MIN_SCORE is a hit for
SWWAF_REPUTATION_ACTION, logged as abuseipdb and alerted with its score.
A failure or the used-up budget gives no score and raises
source_failure. The key goes only in the Key header.
Judgement call: the budget's day is UTC; AbuseIPDB documents no reset time.
Judgement call: each check sent spends budget; a minute's pause after a failure.
Model: opus-5-5
Zones in SWWAF_DNSBL_ZONES are asked about each client in the background,
through SWWAF_DNSBL_RESOLVER or the host's resolver; no request waits.
Verdicts last SWWAF_REPUTATION_CACHE_TTL, kept in reputation.json.
SWWAF_REPUTATION_ACTION (limit:25) denies, limits or logs a listed
client; each zone listing it raises reputation_hit. A failed query gives
no verdict, raises source_failure, and pauses the zone a minute. A
zone's key, its first label under dq.spamhaus.net, is masked everywhere
but reputation.json. Zones compare without regard to case.
Judgement call: answers in 127.255.255.0/24 or outside 127.0.0.0/8 are failures.
Judgement call: the minute's pause after a failure; at most 1,000 queries at once.
Judgement call: one zone given with two keys stops the start as listed twice.
Rule suppressed: paralleltest on the DNSBL tests (Go's resolver shares state across synctest bubbles), funlen on the test of every logged setting.
