ALLOWthreshold.(data)filesystem.Dataset poisoning
Anubis has the ability to engage in dataset poisoning attacks using the dataset poisoning subsystem. This allows every Anubis instance to be a honeypot to attract and flag abusive scrapers so that no administrator action is required to ban them.
There is much more information about this feature in the dataset poisoning subsystem documentation. Administrators that are interested in learning how this feature works should consult that documentation.
Deprecate
report_asin challenge configurationPreviously Anubis let you lie to users about the difficulty of a challenge to interfere with operators of malicious scrapers as a psychological attack:
This has turned out to be a bad idea because it has caused massive user experience problems and has been removed. If you are using this setting, you will get a warning in your logs like this:
{ "time": "2025-11-25T23:10:31.092201549-05:00", "level": "WARN", "source": { "function": "github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/lib/policy.ParseConfig", "file": "/home/xe/code/TecharoHQ/anubis/lib/policy/policy.go", "line": 201 }, "msg": "use of deprecated report_as setting detected, please remove this from your policy file when possible", "at": "config-validate", "name": "mild-suspicion" }To remove this warning, remove this setting from your policy file.
Logging customization
Anubis now supports the ability to log to multiple backends ("sinks"). This allows you to have Anubis log to a file instead of just logging to standard out. You can also customize the logging level in the policy file:
Additionally, information about how Anubis uses each logging level has been added to the documentation.
DNS Features
arpaReverseIPto transform IPv4/6 addresses into ARPA reverse IP notation.regexSafeto escape regex special characters (useful for includingremoteAddressor headers in regular expressions).The DNS cache TTL can be changed in the bots config like this:
The default value for both forward and reverse queries is 300 seconds.
The
verifyFCrDNSCEL function has two overloads:(addr)Simply verifies that the remote side has PTR records pointing to the target address.
(addr, ptrPattern)Verifies that the remote side refers to a specific domain and that this domain points to the target IP.
