This project provides aggregated IP blocklists for inbound and outbound traffic, updated every 2 hours. It includes exclusions for major public DNS resolvers to prevent legitimate services from being blocked.

How to Use These Lists

These are standard text files and can be used with most modern firewalls, ad-blockers, and security tools.

🛡️ inbound.txt (Inbound Blocklist)

• What it is: A list of IPs/networks with a bad reputation for initiating malicious connections. This includes sources of spam, scanning, brute-force attacks (SSH, RDP), and web exploits.
• Use Case: Protect your public-facing servers and services (web servers, mail servers, game servers, etc.).
• How to use: Apply this list to your firewall's WAN IN or INPUT chain to DROP or REJECT all incoming traffic from these sources.

☢️ outbound.txt (Outbound Blocklist)

• What it is: A list of known malicious destination IPs. This includes C2 (Command & Control) servers, botnet controllers, malware drop sites, and phishing hosts.
• Use Case: Prevent compromised devices on your internal network (like a laptop or IoT device) from contacting malicious servers.
• How to use: Apply this list to your firewall's LAN OUT or OUTPUT chain to BLOCK or LOG all outgoing traffic to these destinations.

Self-hosted runners

The update.yml workflow takes a long time to complete. I run it on a self-hosted runner. If you fork this repo and want to use the same workflow, set up a self-hosted runner:
