Ip Blacklist Checker API

Network tool

POST https://api.findutils.com/api/tools/ip-blacklist-checker/execute

Return whether an IPv4 address is listed on 5 DNS blacklists (Barracuda, SpamCop, UCEPROTECT, JustSpam, PSBL), with listed, clean and failed counts. Lookups use Google DNS-over-HTTPS. A list that does not list its own test address 127.0.0.2 at the time of the check counts as failed, never as clean. Spamhaus is not checked: it refuses public DNS-over-HTTPS resolvers.
