ipban199

A PHP/MySQL web application for managing IP blacklists and whitelists. Provides both a browser UI and plain-text API endpoints consumed by external firewall/filtering tools.

---

Database

Connection: conn.php — connects to MySQL at database. conn.php is not included in version control. Create it with the following structure:

<?php
$con=mysqli_connect("db_host","db_user","db_password","db_name");
if(!$con){
    die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error());
}
?>

Tables

Table	Purpose
blacklist	Banned IPs
whitelist	Allowed IPs
type	IP classification labels (e.g. type 1, 3, …)
info	Tracks last-modified timestamps per list

blacklist / whitelist columns

Column	Type	Notes
ip	varchar	Primary key. CIDR notation, e.g. 1.2.3.4/32
type	int	FK to type.type
adddate	bigint	YYYYMMDDHHmmss format
enddate	bigint	YYYYMMDDHHmmss or 99999999999999 for permanent
reason	varchar	Free-text description

info columns

Column	Notes
list	0 = blacklist last-modified, 1 = whitelist last-modified, > 1 = portspoof pull log (value is the run timestamp YYYYMMDDHHmmss)
last	Timestamp of last change in YYYYMMDDHHmmss format

Date format

All dates are stored as 14-digit integers: YYYYMMDDHHmmss (e.g. 20260316143000). Helper functions in functions.php handle conversion, arithmetic, and display.

API Endpoints

Authentication is not enforced on the API endpoints — they are intended to be called from trusted internal/local sources.

blacklist.php

Returns a plain-text block list of currently active IPs (adddate ≤ now < enddate).

Action	Method	Parameters	Response
?a=display (default)	GET	—	Plain-text IP list with comments
?a=add	GET	ip, type, date (enddate), reason	SUCCESS (new) / SUCCESS UPDATE (existing)
?a=rem	GET	ip	SUCCESS
?a=log	GET	ip, date, sf, type, account	SUCCESS

add uses INSERT … ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE so duplicate IPs never cause an error.

Example:

https://www.daprogs.com/api/ipban199/blacklist.php?a=add&ip=1.2.3.4/32&type=1&date=20271231235959&reason=Bad%20Actor

Also supports HEAD requests — returns Last-Modified header based on info.last for list=0.

whitelist.php

Same interface as blacklist.php but operates on the whitelist table (info.list=1).

Action	Method	Parameters	Response
?a=display (default)	GET	—	Plain-text allow list
?a=add	GET	ip, type, date, reason	SUCCESS / SUCCESS UPDATE
?a=rem	GET	ip	SUCCESS

Portspoof Auto-Pull (pull.php)

Fetches frequently seen IPs from the portspoof API and ingests them into the blacklist automatically.

Source API: https://www.home.daprogs.net/portspoof/api/frequent_ips.php Auth: Bearer token (configured at top of pull.php)

Behaviour

• Compares each IP's last_seen against the timestamp of the most recent previous pull
• Only ingests IPs where last_seen > last_pulled (new activity since last run)
• Uses INSERT … ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE — safe to run repeatedly, existing IPs get their enddate and type refreshed
• Inserts are batched in chunks of 100 rows to stay within MySQL's max_allowed_packet
• Each run logs itself in info with list = <run_timestamp> (the MAX(list) WHERE list > 1 query finds the last run on the next execution)
• Updates info.last WHERE list=0 (blacklist last-modified) when at least one row was written

Configuration (top of pull.php)

Variable	Default	Description
$pull_type	3	Blacklist type ID assigned to portspoof entries
$enddate_days	600	Days until the ban expires
$reason	"Portspoof Auto-Ban"	Reason string stored on each entry

Running via cron

# Every hour
0 * * * * php /path/to/ipban199/pull.php >> /var/log/ipban_pull.log 2>&1

Output

Done. Processed: 1700, Skipped: 42

• Processed — rows sent to MySQL (new inserts + updates of existing IPs)
• Skipped — rows filtered out because last_seen <= last_pulled

Web UI

Requires a login session ($_SESSION['user_id']). Login via login.php; logout via the navbar link.

Page	Description
index.php	Search blacklist/whitelist; shows last 20 entries per list
add_ip_frm.php?tbl=b	Add a single IP to the blacklist
add_ip_frm.php?tbl=w	Add a single IP to the whitelist
add_ip_bulk_frm.php	Paste-in bulk IP import (CSV, one IP per line)
add_type_frm.php	Add a new IP type/label
last_info.php	Show last-modified timestamps for blacklist and whitelist
search_db.php	Search results page (POST from index)
export.php	Download current search results as CSV
error.php	Displays error messages from session

Bulk Import format (add_ip_bulk_frm.php)

One IP per line. Comma-separated; first field is the IP. IPs without a / suffix are automatically normalised to /32.

1.2.3.4
5.6.7.8/24
