    Hello,

    Can you tell me what the most optimal approach to whitelisting the IP from the following Security Log entry would be? It’s from a Sucuri bot (confirmed) that is used to gather information about the site when a support ticket is opened.

    [403 GET Request: September 10, 2018 - 3:38 pm]
    BPS Pro: 13.7
    WP: 4.9.8
    Event Code: BFHS - Blocked/Forbidden Hacker or Spammer
    Solution: N/A - Hacker/Spammer Blocked/Forbidden
    REMOTE_ADDR: 23.92.28.61
    Host Name: cloudproxydev1.sucuri.net
    SERVER_PROTOCOL: HTTP/1.1
    HTTP_CLIENT_IP:
    HTTP_FORWARDED:
    HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR:
    HTTP_X_CLUSTER_CLIENT_IP:
    REQUEST_METHOD: GET
    HTTP_REFERER:
    REQUEST_URI: /
    QUERY_STRING:
    HTTP_USER_AGENT: Jason Ot 1.1

    Can the “REQUEST METHODS FILTERED” area be used for this even though it is a GET request?

    Thank you,
    JP

    I do not see anything in the Request that should be blocked. So I assume that even though the request method appears to be a GET request it is actually a HEAD request. So yes you can modify the REQUEST METHODS FILTERED code in BPS Custom Code to allow all HEAD Requests.
