block hacker - badger - 01-08-2023
I'm sure there is a better way to do the following. My aim was to stop a hack attempt at the very start, so in routes, at the very top, I have
Code:
$sUrl = strtolower(uri_string());
if(str_starts_with($sUrl,'wp-') || str_starts_with($sRUrl,'admin') || str_starts_with($sUrl,'view-') || str_starts_with($sUrl,'misc/')){
// definite hacker - set default controller to Controllers/Home which shows simply "Site Under Construction"
$routes->get('(:any)',$sHackerController );
$routes->post('(:any)', $sHackerController);
$routes->put('(:any)', $sHackerController);
$routes->delete('(:any)', $sHackerController);
service('auth')->routes($routes);
return;
}
// and then come the proper routesthanks, Bill

On what level do you define a 'hacker', looks to me like you want to stop the 'auto bots' with directory/credentials sniffing.

Well I knew it was a bot but I class them all as hacking attempts. Anyway, I've just learned something new from you. So how do i stop the auto bots please?
Thanks, Bill
