Installation

Setup

On one machine

AdGuard Home version

v0.108.0-a.391+09f88cf2

Description

What did you do?

Trying to block requests from all devices, except clients from the list.

Actual result

The rules with AdGuard ad blocker syntax with * or empty host(url) part do not work
$client=~'Allowed client'
*$client=~'Allowed client'

A similar rule with few * is working
****$client=~'Allowed client'

Probably this is caused by a minimal rule length(3 symbols, as I see. In ad blockers - 4 symbols.)

Expected result

These rules must work

`$client=~'Allowed client'`
`*$client=~'Allowed client'`

It should depend on the rule modifiers. Of course it should not be applied when there's a $client modifier, but when there're no modifiers at all I think we still should.

Fixed in urlfilter v0.16.1

This will be released in the upcoming v0.107.23. Sorry it took too long.
