MLBridge Plugin
The mlbridge plugin is a CoreDNS plugin that forwards requests to the mlbridge-middleware app via HTTP POST requests. Once the mlbridge-middleware app processes the request,it sends the prediction, whether the domain name is malicious or benign, back to the plugin. Depending on the nature of the domain name, the plugin can be configured to allow the request to fall through to the other plugins or send the request to a honeypot or a blackhole.
