surbl list page.link as blocked ?

how ?
Re: phishtank api usage from spamassassin ? [ In reply to ]
Benny,

Sorry for the top posting.

SURBL doesn’t list that base domain. And please check on the SURBL page not on some third party site that might even be acl’ed.

https://www.surbl.org/surbl-analysis

page.link is NOT listed

SURBL lists the subdomains, and we list many of them. It’s a firebase service and it’s abused for a long time unfortunately.

Your mail is very confusing. With the ‘how?’ Without any further context and false assumptions.

I would also suggest you update to SA4 so some of the items will be handled different. Such as the 2/3ld entries that are no longer needed for several of the datasources.

With kind regards,
Raymond Dijkxhoorn - SURBL

Explicit URI rules always match irrespective of the util_rb_*tld entries
- those only affect DNSBL lookups.

uri FIREBASE_PAGE_LINK /page\.link/

I don't have this particular TLD flagged this way but I do have a number
of others.

https://page.link/

Invalid Dynamic Link

Requested URL must be a parsable and complete DynamicLink.

If you are the developer of this app, ensure that your Dynamic Links
domain is correctly configured and that the path component of this URL
is valid.

missing abuse report on that page to be usefull

like bit.ly have it redirects to https://bitly.com/ :=)

good and thanks, i will add this to local rules here, but maybe
spamassassin should not do the util_rb_2tld ?, the url_shortener works
without imho ?

KAM clean up your rules above

There are legitimate sites using that domain.

I added it as a 2tld for URIBL, so please report such domains to URIBL.

i can add them later

it was imho already listed as so, util_rb_2tld should imho have not
being defined, so only the uri_shortner handled random spam/phish
domains, while still blocking page.link would be simple as all other

not possible ?
Re: phishtank api usage from spamassassin ? [ In reply to ]
Benny,

It’s not a redirector in that sense.

The 2ld is correct and SHOULD be used.

It’s abused subdomains of page.link that we see and list.

I don’t see samples of the base domain beeing used and abused as a redirector. Could it be that that one is added mistakenly?

With the 2ld listing SURBL lookups will be done on the right level.

With kind regards,
Raymond Dijkxhoorn - SURBL

Re: phishtank api usage from spamassassin ? [ In reply to ]
Hello Benny,

Many of the SARE people are around but are now doing things RBL style. Including me and Alex to name just two.

And the link -subdomains- you see in spams you can report to various lists if needed (feedback@surbl.org for example).

In case you want to send abuse reports to google who operates this service:

https://firebase.google.com/support/troubleshooter/contact

It’s not a ‘normal’ webpage as such I think they didn’t add a abuse or contact on the page you mentioned. It’s more like a abused api system. But just thinking out loud on that.

As mentioned there are many legit subdomains you definately don’t want to block.

With kind regards,
Raymond Dijkxhoorn

"You must sign in to access this page".

That's... rather unhelpful, Google.

It's not the only place Google won't let you report problems from
outside their ecosystem either - you can't report spam coming through
Google Groups with the link in the messages without logging in to a
Google account.

I gave up trying to report these, and just set up another local DNSBL
dataset listing normalized List-IDs, and extended a local SA plugin to
pull the List-ID out of a message and drop in in a tag for lookup. This
is scored quite high due to all of the beneficial rules that hit on mail
from Google Groups. More recently I've been eyeing up extracting
similar/related list identifiers for mail sent through a number of
bulk-mail platforms with... problematic.... mail flows, by local
standards, for the same lookup.
