It appears some of our IPs have been blocked, and we receive a 403
Forbidden when trying to reach wiki.debian.org.


Can you please unblock *189.103.121.228 ?*


*thanks*

Looks like we have blocked the entirety of 189.103.*.* due to a number
of spammers across the range. I'll discuss removing this block with
the other wiki admins.

Dear Maintainer,

As of today (2018/04/11), it seems my IP address (177.141.158.166) is blacklisted.

Would it be possible to restore access to the website?

Thank you.

Please

Dear maintener, my ip(186.221.50.11) cannot access the wiki.

Your IP wasn't blocked directly, but a much bigger netblock was. Your
ISP (virtua.com.br) is a really bad source of spam attacks against the
wiki, and nobody ever responds to abuse reports. Please find a better
ISP if you can.

I've removed the block on that network block for now, but if spam
attacks resume then it may be re-added.

Hi,

My office IP 185.123.72.18 is also blocked. Is it possible to unblock it?

Thanks,

Regards,

Hi Laurent,

Just checking our logs - it was directly blocked due to a spammy
signup attempt. But that was quite a while back, so I've just
unblocked you now. Please let us know at wiki@debian.org if you need
any more help.

1.0.179.0/24  is blocked too, perhaps whole TOT Thailand IP range?
1.0.128.0 - 1.0.191.255

Please unblock, thank you.

Dear Admin,


Would you be able to unblock my statically assigned IP 119.15.103.114
please?

I have been unable to read anything in the Debian wiki for many month
and I am a recent user keen to learn , but have had to source my
information from stack exchange and reddit, because your wiki is
unavailable to me.

regards,

Ralph Holland

Hi,

My address also seems to have been blacklisted: 90.120.212.217

I would be really grateful if it could be unblocked.

Regards.

Dear Maintainer,

Acces to wiki.debian.org is blocked with a 403 forbidden if i use my Vodafone / Kabel Deutschland connection.
I'm not sure, but i think my ip is 95.90.222.93

I connect thru a DS-Lite-Tunnel, AFTR-Gateway: 2a02:8100:c0:405::b:1:af72
(i dont know about that IPv6 stuff)

Oh, and while the error page is correct html both firefox and edge show the <p> tags and dont interpret them...

Unblocked.

Hi.
Can’t access wiki from my office network. Our IP address 87.236.187.11.
Thanks.

Unblocked.

Can't access the wiki from my home network,

Please *unblock 177.200.70.142.*

Thanks in advance

Hi there, our IP is also blocked by the wiki.  Can you add an exception
for us?

   50.251.200.225

Please and thank you!
Jack

Why is this happened?

I-ve trying to make an account, to add some supported hardware, than I
was blocked.

Not cool.

I am trying to access the debian wiki, and I am getting a Forbidden return

Please could I be whitelisted?

85.248.157.233



Best Regards

André

Dear Maintainer

my IP is forbidden when trying to reach wiki.debian.org.


Please, can you unblock 176.221.120.161 ?

Dear Maintainer,
I am a normal Debian desktop user. But my ip 175.41.46.121 has been blocked
for months now. It would be helpful if my ip is to be whitelisted since it
is restraining me from looking up in the Wiki. Also note that, in my
country (BD), there are very few Debian users (GNU/Linux users in general
also) so hardly any chance to abuse from this ip.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Redwan

Dear Maintainer,

please unblock 165.225.194.0/24, my employer uses
ZScaler to filter http(s).

I also noticed the extra <p>, somehow this is duplicated in
the 403 error message file:

<p><p>You are not allowed to access this!</p></p>

Thank You.

There are 4 addresses in that range blocked, all for obviously spammy
signup attempts. The most recent two were in May this year. Could you
explain these please:

2024-05-13 08:48:05 UTC: New account attempt

  BLOCK:    auto-blacklisting ip 165.225.194.172 (too many dots in email local part f.ra.nk.pau.la.t.oni.n.ey.rs.r.x.pm.4.0 :14)

Is this malware on your network?

Hello Steve,

i can not explain that registration attempts.
Currently our Stuttgart office is having
resulting address 165.225.194.161, when using
fra4-2-vpn.zscaler. However in 23. May it was
using 165.225.240.226 and others.
I do not know of a way to reverse this assignment.
Possibly they pool differnt customers.
So yes, looks like the blocking is justified.
Would be nice if pages could be read, and just
account registration and other modifications
could be blocked.

Hi,

Please could you allowlist the following ranges:

8.36.116.0/24
8.39.144.0/24
31.186.239.0/24
163.116.128.0/17
162.10.0.0/17

I'm a Qualcomm employee, working on an initiative inside Qualcomm to
improve support for Qualcomm hardware directly upstream and in Debian.
On my Qualcomm corporate managed laptop, I often get a 403 reaching
https://wiki.debian.org, making it difficult to demonstrate to
colleagues how to do packaging correctly!

My understanding is that some of our outbound ranges but not all of them
are blocklisted on the Debian infrastructure side.

These IP ranges are from:
https://docs.netskope.com/en/newedge-ip-ranges-for-allowlisting

I hope this is the appropriate place to ask - it seems to have become
the de facto venue for allowlist requests?

Thanks,

Robie

Dear Maintainer,

   * My residential broadband IP 88.97.40.160 started receiving 403 responses
from wiki.debian.org a couple of weeks ago, please can you unblock it?

Hi, I f-botched a signup on wiki.debian.org fumbling with my password
manager and got blocked. It would be awesome if someone could clear my
name and give me another shot.

184.179.160.226

Thanks,

It appears that my current IP is also blocked:
141.226.92.46

Hi!

Thanks for contacting us.

Due to massive abuse of resources by morons scraping the entire web
for data for their LLMs, we've ended up blocking various parts of the
net from accessing the wiki.

Recently, however, those same morons have made things worse by using
botnets to access resources from residential IP addresses scattered
all over the world. We've been analysing traffic to identify IPs
involved and block those too, but sometimes that isn't 100%
accurate. We're refining that analysis over time to make it work
better.

Checking our logs, it looks like our anti-bot checks incorrectly
blocked you here. I've removed the block for you now,

I just scrolled through this report and it seems like an amazingly
tedious job to maintain such black-/whitelists.

I have no better suggestions on how to deal with this issues but may I
suggest to advertise this bug URL on the "Forbidden Page" so that non-
"experts" have a chance of finding the unblock process?

(I was under the impression that the site was down for maintenance for
a very long time before I started investigating.)

Thanks for all the work you put into this maintenance!

Anyway could you please unblock:

94.136.7.212	Home
91.114.48.170	Office
41.66.93.184	Office Backup Line

Thank you very much!
David
