As announced last October, malware data has been moved from PH to a new list MW, taking the bit of OB, which was deprecated last year. Along with malware data, limited set of cracked hosts also has been moved from PH to MW, in part because cracked sites often have or can have malware on them.

The bitmask bit 16 therefore is no longer used by OB, but is used by MW now. Please update configurations appropriately. For example in SpamAssassin, change:

urirhssub URIBL_OB_SURBL multi.surbl.org. A 16 body URIBL_OB_SURBL eval:check_uridnsbl('URIBL_OB_SURBL') describe URIBL_OB_SURBL Contains an URL listed in the OB SURBL blocklist tflags URIBL_OB_SURBL net reuse URIBL_OB_SURBL

score URIBL_OB_SURBL 0 0.785 0 0.122
