# URLhaus Malicious URL Blocklist A blocklist of malicious websites that are being used for malware distribution, based on the **Database dump (CSV)** of Abuse.ch [URLhaus](https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/). Blocklist is updated twice a day. There are multiple formats available, refer to the appropriate section according to the program used: - uBlock Origin (uBO) -> [URL-based](#url-based) section (recommended) - Pi-hole -> [Domain-based](#domain-based) or [Hosts-based](#hosts-based) section - Hosts file -> [Hosts-based](#hosts-based) section - Dnsmasq -> [Dnsmasq](#dnsmasq) section - BIND -> [BIND](#bind) section - Unbound -> [Unbound](#unbound) section Not sure which format to choose? See [Compatibility](https://gitlab.com/curben/urlhaus-filter/wikis/compatibility) page in the wiki. ## URL-based Import the following URL into uBO to subscribe (includes online and **offline** malicious websites): - https://gitlab.com/curben/urlhaus-filter/raw/master/urlhaus-filter.txt

**Note:** Lite version is ~95% smaller by excluding offline urls. The status of urls is determined by the upstream Abuse.ch. However, the test is not 100% accurate and some malicious urls that are otherwise accessible may be missed. If bandwidth (4 MB/day) is not a constraint, I recommend the regular version. *PS: While regular version contains roughly >145K filters, uBO can [easily handle](https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/338#issuecomment-452843669) half a million filters.* ## Domain-based This blocklist includes domains and IP addresses. - https://gitlab.com/curben/urlhaus-filter/raw/master/urlhaus-filter-domains.txt

## Issues The default [URL-based](#url-based) blocklist does include **offline** links and may have false positive. Report any false positive by creating an [issue](https://gitlab.com/curben/urlhaus-filter/issues) or [merge request](https://gitlab.com/curben/urlhaus-filter/merge_requests). This filter **only** accepts new malware URLs from [URLhaus](https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/). Please report new malware URL to the upstream maintainer through https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/api/#submit. This repo is not endorsed by Abuse.ch. ## Cloning Since the filter is updated frequently, cloning the repo would become slower over time as the revision grows. Use shallow clone to get the recent revisions only. Getting the last five revisions should be sufficient for a valid MR. `git clone --depth 5 https://gitlab.com/curben/urlhaus-filter.git` ## License [Creative Commons Zero v1.0 Universal](LICENSE.md) ## FAQ See [FAQ](https://gitlab.com/curben/urlhaus-filter/wikis/faq).
