I'd strongly suggest avoiding any active reponses on the web attack
rules until you've tweaked them to fit your applications ;-)
(and even then I'd really be careful since an attacker can use CSRF on a
random site in the internet to cause a victim to send queries to your
server that will trigger your active response)

hey guys,
I received an alert about sucess on attack.
looking in my access.log I found the log that started this alert:

The active response blocked the source ip. I checked Integrity
Checking database and it didn't show any changes on files, so, it was
a false positive.
Had anyone the same issue ?
many thanks!
