Generated HAProxy Configuration​

# Deny Pages - Block specific paths
acl denied_path path_beg /admin /private /debug
http-request deny deny_status 404 if denied_path

Important Notes​

  • The plugin runs once per domain during the discovery cycle
  • Path matching uses path_beg (prefix matching), so /admin blocks /admin/* too
  • Consider using 404 instead of 403 to hide the existence of blocked paths
  • Works well in combination with other security plugins
