Example rules

This custom rule example logs all requests with at least one uploaded content object:

• When incoming requests match:

  Field	Operator	Value
  Has content object	equals	True

  If you are using the Expression Editor:
  (cf.waf.content_scan.has_obj)

• Action: Log

This custom rule example blocks requests addressed at /upload.php that contain at least one uploaded content object considered malicious:

• When incoming requests match:

  Field	Operator	Value
  Has malicious content object	equals	True	And
  URI Path	equals	/upload.php

  If you are using the Expression Editor:
  (cf.waf.content_scan.has_malicious_obj and http.request.uri.path eq "/upload.php")

• Action: Block

This custom rule example blocks requests addressed at /upload with uploaded content objects that are not PDF files:

• When incoming requests match:
  any(cf.waf.content_scan.obj_types[*] != "application/pdf") and http.request.uri.path eq "/upload"
• Action: Block

This custom rule example blocks requests addressed at /upload with uploaded content objects over 500 KB (512,000 bytes) in size:

• When incoming requests match:
  any(cf.waf.content_scan.obj_sizes[*] > 512000) and http.request.uri.path eq "/upload"
• Action: Block

This custom rule example blocks requests with uploaded content objects over 50 MB in size (the current content scanning limit):

• When incoming requests match:
  any(cf.waf.content_scan.obj_sizes[*] >= 52428800)
• Action: Block

In this example, you must also test for equality because currently any file over 50 MB will be handled internally as if it had a size of 50 MB (52,428,800 bytes). This means that using the > (greater than) comparison operator would not work for this particular rule you should use >= (greater than or equal) instead.
