Fail2Ban Filter Regex Update (nginxrepeatoffender.conf)

[Mitchell Krog Photography]

The Custom Jail for Repeat Error 444 and 403 Offenders (filter.d/nginxrepeatoffender.conf) has been updated with an improved Regex to catch 444 offenders who had been slipping under the radar, especially the Jorgee Scanner.

This New improved Regex pattern for catching Jorgee and others who may slip past undetected was contributed by Konstantin Goretzki @terriblespider.

Many Thanks Konstantin.

sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mitchellkrogza/nginx-ultimate-bad-bot-blocker/master/_fail2ban_addon/filter.d/nginxrepeatoffender.conf -O /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/nginxrepeatoffender.conf

and then
