Message contains use of the bubblelife.com redirect. This has been exploited in the wild.

  1. inbound message
  2. any of body.links where all hold:
    • .href_url.domain.root_domain is 'bubblelife.com'
    • .href_url.path starts with '/click/'
    • .href_url.query_params contains 'url='
    • not:
      • .href_url.query_params matches 'url=(?:https?(?:%3a|:))?(?:%2f|\\/){2}[^&]*bubblelife\\.com(?:\\&|\\/|$|%2f)'
  3. not:
    • any of headers.domains where:
      • .root_domain is 'bubblelife.com'
  4. any of:
    • all of:
      • sender.email.domain.root_domain in $high_trust_sender_root_domains
      • not:
        • headers.auth_summary.dmarc.pass
    • sender.email.domain.root_domain not in $high_trust_sender_root_domains
