How to block traffic from urlumbrella? (bots)

[Alf85]

For some reason spam traffic is coming to my site. I have Cloudflare free but it seems that these fake urlumbrella visits are still coming in. Anything I can do?

I think, Dealing with spam traffic can be a pain. In Cloudflare, try enhancing your security settings. You can set up a Page Rule to challenge suspicious traffic. If the issue persists, consider adding a CAPTCHA challenge to your pages. Regularly monitoring your Firewall Analytics can help you fine-tune settings.

You have to set up waf like blocking asnum, then set up known bots and bot fights

enable bot fight mode

Up. Again the same fucking site urlumbrella.com

if using cf, create a waf rule -> select user agent, enter urlumbrella, then block or managed challenge

There are 2 things here, that could be implemented depending on the platform your blog runs on:
1. Do you identify that traffic based on user agent or provider? Are you logging the traffic at your site level?
2. Depending on that, you can add a simple php script to redirect unwanted traffic to a 403 page for instance.
