Prevent PHP script from being flooded

问题:

I want to prevent my script, from being flooded - if user hit F5 it is executing the script every time.

I want to prevent from this and allow one script execution per 2 seconds, is there any solution for that?

回答1:

You can use memcache to do this ..

Simple Demo Script

$memcache = new Memcache ();
$memcache->connect ( 'localhost', 11211 );
$runtime = $memcache->get ( 'floodControl' );

if ((time () - $runtime) < 2) {
    die ( "Die! Die! Die!" );
} 

else {
    echo "Welcome";
    $memcache->set ( "floodControl", time () );
}

This is just a sample code .. there are also other thing to consider such as

A. Better IP address detection (Proxy , Tor )

B. Current Action

C. Maximum execution per min etc ...

D. Ban User after max flood etc

EDIT 1 - Improved Version

Usage

$flood = new FloodDetection();
$flood->check();

echo "Welcome" ;

Class

class FloodDetection {
    const HOST = "localhost";
    const PORT = 11211;
    private $memcache;
    private $ipAddress;

    private $timeLimitUser = array (
            "DEFAULT" => 2,
            "CHAT" => 3,
            "LOGIN" => 4 
    );
    private $timeLimitProcess = array (
            "DEFAULT" => 0.1,
            "CHAT" => 1.5,
            "LOGIN" => 0.1 
    );

    function __construct() {
        $this->memcache = new Memcache ();
        $this->memcache->connect ( self::HOST, self::PORT );
    }

    function addUserlimit($key, $time) {
        $this->timeLimitUser [$key] = $time;
    }

    function addProcesslimit($key, $time) {
        $this->timeLimitProcess [$key] = $time;
    }

    public function quickIP() {
        return (empty ( $_SERVER ['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'] ) ? (empty ( $_SERVER ['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] ) ? $_SERVER ['REMOTE_ADDR'] : $_SERVER ['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']) : $_SERVER ['HTTP_CLIENT_IP']);
    }

    public function check($action = "DEFAULT") {
        $ip = $this->quickIP ();
        $ipKey = "flood" . $action . sha1 ( $ip );

        $runtime = $this->memcache->get ( 'floodControl' );
        $iptime = $this->memcache->get ( $ipKey );

        $limitUser = isset ( $this->timeLimitUser [$action] ) ? $this->timeLimitUser [$action] : $this->timeLimitUser ['DEFAULT'];
        $limitProcess = isset ( $this->timeLimitProcess [$action] ) ? $this->timeLimitProcess [$action] : $this->timeLimitProcess ['DEFAULT'];

        if ((microtime ( true ) - $iptime) < $limitUser) {
            print ("Die! Die! Die! $ip") ;
            exit ();
        }

        // Limit All request
        if ((microtime ( true ) - $runtime) < $limitProcess) {
            print ("All of you Die! Die! Die! $ip") ;
            exit ();
        }

        $this->memcache->set ( "floodControl", microtime ( true ) );
        $this->memcache->set ( $ipKey, microtime ( true ) );
    }

}

回答2:

1. Store the last execution time of your script in a database or a file.
2. Read from that file/database and compare to the current time.
3. If the difference is under 2 seconds, terminate the script.
4. Else, continue normally.

回答3:

you can either use cookies (which can be disabled) so not a very good idea, or you can use store his ip address in the database, so if more then X tries from the same IP address then do not execute the code, just an if else statement, you will need a table with ip addresses time of request, number of tries

IF you do not want to use databases then you can use the following code

$file = "file.txt";
$file_content = file_get_contents($file);
$fh = fopen($file, 'w') or die("could not open file");
$now = time();
if($now - $file_content > 60){
// your code here
fwrite($fh, $now);
}else{
echo "Try again later";
}
fclose($fh);

but in this case, it won't be for each visitor but rather for all of them (so say user A came and execute the script, user B won't be able to execute it until 60 seconds pass.

回答4:

The best way would be to store the time on serverside. If you leave the information on client side it would be easy to by pass.

I would for example save the timestamp in a table. That inputs and checks against spamming your script. And would be easy to set tolerence.

回答5:

use either apc cache or mencache to store information storing to database or reading from file i believe is time/resource consuming
