https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_rewrite_module.html#return Block certain kinds of ddos at application level simply by dropping the connection with your reverse http proxy. works like a charm, simpler and more effective than lowlevel blocking attempts (like with iptables). You can base the criteria which connection to drop on all kind of shit like user-agent, url, request method or any other var you can access. Also you can use combinations of them to fingerprint annoying bots. And nginxs non standard return code 444 simply drops the connection without giving any answer, thus not wasting any more server resoources like cpu time or open sockets or giving more information to potential attackers. Fucking awesome ! nginx just rocks. -- Posted on def2
