CB Antispam - Internal Client Error (404) after crawling the webpage

1 month 1 day ago #339618 by erichburkhard
I have the following environment installed:

- Joomla version, 3.10.12
- CB: 2.9.3+build.2024.09.10.14.21.57.794f9ce0d
- CB Antispam 6.1.0

Problem explanation
In order to find 'bad links' in my webpage I have crawled my webpage with the tool 'Screamingfrog' ..... one of the results is that I get a 404 alert wich seems to be caused by the Antispam plugin. As soon as I deactivate the plugin the alert disappears. Also a deinstallation / reinstallation of the plugin did not help ..... here the URL that will be prompted in Screaming frog

Prompted URL: https://my-domain/en/?option=com_comprofiler&view=pluginclass&plugin=cbantispam&action=captcha&func=image&id=8209945d0726095f63ff99c4522fc285&Itemid=1186&format=raw
Status Code: 404

What can I do?

There's nothing to do. It's a captcha image endpoint that requires CSRF data. So crawling it with GET is going to result in a 404. You should just ignore that error in your tool as it is not a bad link, but a protected one.
