The userblacklist module allows OpenSIPS to handle blacklists on a per user basis. This information is stored in a database table, which is queried to decide if the number (more exactly, the request URI user) is blacklisted or not.
An additional functionality that this module provides is the ability to handle global blacklists. This lists are loaded on startup into memory, thus providing a better performance then in the userblacklist case. This global blacklists are useful to only allow calls to certain international destinations, i.e. block all not whitelisted numbers. They could also used to prevent the blacklisting of important numbers, as whitelisting is supported too. This is useful for example to prevent the customer from blocking emergency call number or service hotlines.
The module exports two functions, check_blacklist and check_user_blacklist for usage in the config file. Furthermore its provide a FIFO function to reload the global blacklist cache.
The module depends on the following modules (in the other words the listed modules must be loaded before this module):
database -- Any database module
Url to the database containing the routing data.
Default value is “mysql://opensipsro:opensipsro@localhost/opensips”.
Example 1.1. Set db_url
parameter
... modparam("userblacklist", "db_url", "dbdriver://username:password@dbhost/dbname") ...
Name of the table where the user blacklist data is stored.
Default value is “userblacklist”.
Finds the longest prefix that matches the request URI user (or the number parameter) for the given user and domain name in the database. If a match is found and it is not set to whitelist, false is returned. Otherwise, true is returned. Pseudo-variables or AVPs can be used for the user, domain and number parameters. The number and table variables are optional, the defaults are used if they are ommited. The number parameter can be used to check for example against the from URI user.
Example 1.4. check_user_blacklist
usage
... if (!check_user_blacklist("user", "domain.com")) sl_send_reply("403", "Forbidden"); exit; } ...
Finds the longest prefix that matches the request URI for the given table. If a match is found and it is not set to whitelist, false is returned. Otherwise, true is returned.
Example 1.5. check_blacklist
usage
... if (!check_blacklist("global_blacklist"))) sl_send_reply("403", "Forbidden"); exit; } ...
Before running OpenSIPS with userblacklist, you have to setup the database table where the module will read the blacklist data. For that, if the table was not created by the installation script or you choose to install everything by yourself you can use the userblacklist-create.sql SQL script in the database directories in the opensips/scripts folder as template. Database and table name can be set with module parameters so they can be changed, but the name of the columns must be as they are in the SQL script. You can also find the complete database documentation on the project webpage, https://opensips.org/docs/db/db-schema-devel.html.
Example 1.7. Example database content - globalblacklist table
... +----+-----------+-----------+ | id | prefix | whitelist | +----+-----------+-----------+ | 1 | | 0 | | 2 | 1 | 1 | | 3 | 123456 | 0 | | 4 | 123455787 | 0 | +----+-----------+-----------+ ...
This table will setup a global blacklist for all numbers, only allowing calls starting with “1”. Numbers that starting with “123456” and “123455787” are also blacklisted, because the longest prefix will be matched.
Example 1.8. Example database content - userblacklist table
... +----+----------------+-------------+-----------+-----------+ | id | username | domain | prefix | whitelist | +----+----------------+-------------+-----------+-----------+ | 23 | 49721123456788 | | 1234 | 0 | | 22 | 49721123456788 | | 123456788 | 1 | | 21 | 49721123456789 | | 12345 | 0 | | 20 | 494675231 | | 499034133 | 1 | | 19 | 494675231 | test | 499034132 | 0 | | 18 | 494675453 | test.domain | 49901 | 0 | | 17 | 494675454 | | 49900 | 0 | +----+----------------+-------------+-----------+-----------+ ...
This table will setup user specific blacklists for certain usernames. For example for user “49721123456788” the prefix “1234” will be not allowed, but the number “123456788” is allowed. Additionally a domain could be specified that is used for username matching if the “use_domain” parameter is set.
