Preventing Request Loops Using CDN-Loop
HTTP requests typically originate with a client, and end at a web server that processes the request and returns some response. Such requests may pass through multiple proxies before they arrive at the requested resource.
Stopping Drupal’s SA-CORE-2019-003 Vulnerability
Drupal discovered a severe vulnerability and said they would release a patch. When the patch was released we analysed and created rules to mitigate these. By analysing the patch we created WAF rules to protect Cloudflare customers running Drupal.
How we made Firewall Rules
Recently we launched Firewall Rules, a new feature that allows you to construct expressions that perform complex matching against HTTP requests and then choose how that traffic is handled.
New Firewall Tab and Analytics
At Cloudflare, one of our top priorities is to make our products and services intuitive so that we can enable customers to accelerate and protect their Internet properties. We're excited to launch two improvements designed to make our Firewall easier to use and more accessible.
