URLScan – rejecting the request depending on the User-Agent string

  • Article

I just learned this now :-) You can now use the URLScan 3.1 with your own custom rules, and it would come handy in situations like rejecting a request based on the User-Agent string.

Below is a sample rule for the same:

[Options]

RuleList=DenyUserAgent

 

[DenyUserAgent]

DenyDataSection=Agent Strings

ScanHeaders=User-Agent

 

[Agent Strings]

My Custom User-Agent String
