Releases: 409H/EtherAddressLookup
Block all punycode domains
- Added logic to blacklist all punycode domains. This will help tackle phishing in a big way as we are seeing a lot of IDN homograph attack domains on places such as coinbase, poloniex, mycrypto, and myetherwallet. This means you won't have to worry so much about checking the domain carefully for characters, i.e.:
mycrypto.com
ormycrypø̄.com
)- This block is toggable, but by default it's turned on.
- Adjusted edit distance for
myetherwallet.com
from 7 to 5 to prevent a lot of false-positives.
Firefox support
EAL is now on the Firefox store: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/etheraddresslookup/
v1.15.1 codebase now works when manually loading for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox.
Edit mycrypto edit distance
Fixes too many false-positives being flagged due to a high holistic value on mycrypto edit distance.
False-positive blacklisting
Fixes issue that was sometimes blacklisted when the domain was whitelisted.
.note class styling override fix
See #253
- Replaced style selector
.note
with.ext-etheraddresslookup-note
to prevent class style overrides on other web pages.
Change RPC node & toggle address lookups on/off
You can now change the RPC node to give you the ability to use something like Quiknode's testnets or a local node - this is an option in the settings view.
Testnet explorers are supported!
Fixed blacklisting race condition issue
v1.13.1 Blacklist race condition fix
Trusted 3rd party blacklists
EAL has now increased its efforts to quickly redirect its users away from phishing attacks by consuming 2 trusted 3rd party blacklists managed by; iosiro and segasec.
The option to use these 3rd party blacklists is up to you, and you can toggle it on/off whenever you like, though it will be beneficial to keep it enabled (they've both fed multiple domains to me directly to blacklist before v1.13.)
New quiknode node
- We are now using a different Quiknode node in this release.
