BUG

Post by freeinternet16 »

Hi,

Please see this website -

Code: Select all

http://www.walla.co.il
- they bypass the adblock by using HTTP request although the domain is on the blacklist. They trick the easylist with using a 'whitelisted' domain as a sub-domain (with no connection to the acceptable ads rules).

Explanation:

The ad blocked domain (REAL domain): umamdmo.com (already blocked in the Heb list - https://github.com/easylist/EasyListHeb ... Hebrew.txt).
The main easy list has a record with the rule: @@||comeadvertisewithus.com*/ads.js| (source: eastlist)

They are using the sub-domain called "comeadvertisewithus.com" for the domain "umamdmo.com" which generates this URL for example https://comeadvertisewithus.com.umamdmo ... &q=/ads.js

The Adblock consider the URL https://comeadvertisewithus.com.umamdmo.com as a whitelisted domain and the ad block is unable to distinguish between REAL domain and the sub-domain and since the whitelisted rule is stronger than the blacklisted rule the domain is bypass easily the adblock.

see this: https://github.com/easylist/EasyListHebrew/issues/211
