Squid helper handling squidguard blacklists written in python

  • Only supports domains blacklists actually (ie : google.com, www.google.com, mail.google.com, etc.)
  • In config specified blacklists are loaded in memory or CDB backend using https://github.com/bbayles/python-pure-cdb
  • Usable as an external acl plugin for squid 3
  • Written because of poor development on squidguard and some issues using blacklists on squid
  • Python 3 supported as of 2020

## Usage

Add this configuration to squid.conf :

external_acl_type urlblacklist_lookup ttl=5 %DST /usr/bin/python /usr/local/pybl/pybl.py
...
acl urlblacklist external urlblacklist_lookup
...
http_access deny urlblacklist

Config file must be include following statements

url = http://dsi.ut-capitole.fr/blacklists/download/blacklists.tar.gz
basedir = /usr/local/pybl/
categories = adult,malware  # categories are coma separated values
backend = cdb
  • url : squidguard-like blacklists files, this variable is not already usable
  • basedir : root path containing blacklists files, metadata (update datetime)
  • categories : blacklists to use for filtering
  • backend : database flavour (ram|cdb)

TODO

  • Auto-fetcher using url if blacklists are not already downloaded or stored on the squid machine (wip)
  • Compatibility with python3 only
  • Filters for regex urls
  • Code optimisation (profiling) and cleaning (wip)
  • Tests (wip)
  • ...

DBs support ideas

  • High performance but heavy RAM usage when using dict()
  • Sqlite3 tested, small memory footprint, but very slow
  • CDB backend seems to be as fast as attended, with a very small footprint

DBs Benchmarks (2016)

RAM usage for one thread with categories ["adult","malware"]

Debian 8 / python 2.7.9 / squid 3.4.8

  • ram : 90Mo
  • cdb : 6Mo

Ubuntu 20.04 / python 3.8.2 / squid 4.9

  • ram : 249Mo
  • cdb : 12Mo
