malicious nodes

Open Gingeropolous opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

can anyone think of a way to mitigate the malicious nodes currently on the network?

at a minimum the bad nodes should be banned and not distributed from the dns entry.

I'm looking into this. We could add ban-list just like what CLI and GUI do. But I am not sure if it is useful. Won't those malicious nodes change IP? Or the list (https://gui.xmr.pm/files/block.txt) are kept updated?

@Gingeropolous The last release v0.2.2 has ban-list support. The unwanted nodes will be removed if a ban-list is provided.
