| Summary | 0006477: Count "flood-blocked" messages and make counter available in security group | ||||
| Description | Dear Unrealircd Team Sorry if this is the incorrect place to make a feature request My request is about the flooding control. What I propose is there is a session-only score that tells the IRCd how many (flood-blocked) has happened because of something that user has tried to do, that can be used as part of the criteria for a security group I currently have a script that reads server notices but if this was available at the config level it could be part of a useful measure building on the existing features like max-concurrent-conversations | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | It's far more complicated that needs to be and because it's client-side I don't think it would be useful to paste on here | ||||
| Additional Information | If flood-blocked only happens once or twice, it will contrast quite well with some knobhead and their python script | ||||
| 3rd party modules | |||||

Yeah that would be fine for all regular ones, eg via flood_limit_exceeded_log(). Only exception would be targetfloodprot, because with target flood protection the sender may be doing nothing bad. But in all the other flood cases (away, nick, etc etc)... yes. |
|
|
Oh and this would be an enhancement in crules, so it would work in both security-group::rule and spamfilter::rule. |

Bump for myself |

This is now done, thanks for the suggestion! Commit https://github.com/unrealircd/unrealircd/commit/4384f1127bca370f69d0dba03c0fe278a35d295e * New [crule function](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Crule) that return the number of times a flood was blocked for that user. For example, `server_flood_count('away')` returns the number of time away-flood was exceeded. Aslo available: `nick`, `join`, `invite`, `knock`, `vhost` and `conversations`. Plus, there is `all` for a total of all. * This can be used in a security-group::rule or spamfilter::rule. Eg: `spamfilter { rule "server_flood_count('nick')>4"; action gline; }` |
