<h2><a name="blocked-inline-images" id="blocked-inline-images">Forbidding Image "Hotlinking"</a></h2>
<dl>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>
<p>The following technique forbids the practice of other sites
including your images inline in their pages. This practice is
often referred to as "hotlinking", and results in
your bandwidth being used to serve content for someone else's
site.</p>
</dd>
<dt>Solution:</dt>
<dd>
<p>This technique relies on the value of the
<code>HTTP_REFERER</code> variable, which is optional. As
such, it's possible for some people to circumvent this
limitation. However, most users will experience the failed
request, which should, over time, result in the image being
removed from that other site.</p>
<p>There are several ways that you can handle this
situation.</p>
<p>In this first example, we simply deny the request, if it didn't
initiate from a page on our site. For the purpose of this example,
we assume that our site is <code>www.example.com</code>.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} <strong>!^$</strong>
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !www.example.com [NC]
RewriteRule <strong>\.(gif|jpg|png)$</strong> - [F,NC]
</pre>
<p>In this second example, instead of failing the request, we display
an alternate image instead.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} <strong>!^$</strong>
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !www.example.com [NC]
RewriteRule <strong>\.(gif|jpg|png)$</strong> /images/go-away.png [R,NC]
</pre>
<p>In the third example, we redirect the request to an image on some
other site.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} <strong>!^$</strong>
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !www.example.com [NC]
RewriteRule <strong>\.(gif|jpg|png)$</strong> http://other.example.com/image.gif [R,NC]
</pre>
<p>Of these techniques, the last two tend to be the most effective
in getting people to stop hotlinking your images, because they will
simply not see the image that they expected to see.</p>
</dd>
<dt>Discussion:</dt>
<dd>
<p>If all you wish to do is deny access to the resource, rather
than redirecting that request elsewhere, this can be
accomplished without the use of mod_rewrite:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
SetEnvIf Referer example\.com localreferer
&lt;FilesMatch \.(jpg|png|gif)$&gt;
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from env=localreferer
&lt;/FilesMatch&gt;
</pre>

<h2><a name="blocking-of-robots" id="blocking-of-robots">Blocking of Robots</a></h2>
<dl>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>
<p>
In this recipe, we discuss how to block persistent requests from
a particular robot, or user agent.</p>
<p>The standard for robot exclusion defines a file,
<code>/robots.txt</code> that specifies those portions of your
website where you which to exclude robots. However, some robots
do not honor these files.
</p>
<p>Note that there are methods of accomplishing this which do
not use mod_rewrite. Note also that any technique that relies on
the clients <code>USER_AGENT</code> string can be circumvented
very easily, since that string can be changed.</p>
</dd>
<dt>Solution:</dt>
<dd>
<p>We use a ruleset that specifies the directory to be
protected, and the client <code>USER_AGENT</code> that
identifies the malicious or persistent robot.</p>
<p>In this example, we are blocking a robot called
<code>NameOfBadRobot</code> from a location
<code>/secret/files</code>. You may also specify an IP address
range, if you are trying to block that user agent only from the
particular source.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^<strong>NameOfBadRobot</strong>
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} =<strong>123\.45\.67\.[8-9]</strong>
RewriteRule ^<strong>/secret/files/</strong> - [<strong>F</strong>]
</pre>
</dd>
<dt>Discussion:</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Rather than using mod_rewrite for this, you can accomplish the
same end using alternate means, as illustrated here:
</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent ^NameOfBadRobot goaway
&lt;Location /secret/files&gt;
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Deny from env=goaway
&lt;/Location&gt;
</pre>
<p>
As noted above, this technique is trivial to circumvent, by simply
modifying the <code>USER_AGENT</code> request header. If you
are experiencing a sustained attack, you should consider blocking
it at a higher level, such as at your firewall.

<h2><a name="host-deny" id="host-deny">Denying Hosts in a Blacklist</a></h2>
<dl>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>
<p>We wish to maintain a blacklist of hosts, rather like
<code>hosts.deny</code>, and have those hosts blocked from
accessing our server.</p>
</dd>
<dt>Solution:</dt>
<dd>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
RewriteEngine on
RewriteMap hosts-deny txt:/path/to/hosts.deny
RewriteCond ${hosts-deny:%{REMOTE_ADDR}|NOT-FOUND} !=NOT-FOUND [OR]

<div class="example"><p><code>
##<br />
## hosts.deny<br />

## ATTENTION! This is a map, not a list, even when we treat it as such.<br />
## mod_rewrite parses it for key/value pairs, so at least a<br />

</code></p></div>
</dd>
<dt>Discussion:</dt>
<dd>
<p>
The second RewriteCond assumes that you have HostNameLookups turned
on, so that client IP addresses will be resolved. If that's not the
case, you should drop the second RewriteCond, and drop the
<code>[OR]</code> flag from the first RewriteCond.

<dd>
<p>Redirect requests based on the Referer from which the request
came, with different targets per Referer.</p>
</dd>
<dt>Solution:</dt>
<dd>
<p>The following ruleset uses a map file to associate each Referer
with a redirection target.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
RewriteMap deflector txt:/path/to/deflector.map
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !=""
RewriteCond ${deflector:%{HTTP_REFERER}} =-
RewriteRule ^ %{HTTP_REFERER} [R,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !=""
RewriteCond ${deflector:%{HTTP_REFERER}|NOT-FOUND} !=NOT-FOUND
RewriteRule ^ ${deflector:%{HTTP_REFERER}} [R,L]
</pre>
<p>The map file lists redirection targets for each referer, or, if
we just wish to redirect back to where they came from, a "-" is
placed in the map:</p>
<div class="example"><p><code>
##<br />
## deflector.map<br />
