Attack Analysis
WordPress XML-RPC Abuse
This IP targeted xmlrpc.php, a legacy WordPress endpoint that has been abused for brute-force authentication attacks, credential stuffing, and DDoS amplification. Any direct access to xmlrpc.php is an attack or reconnaissance attempt; modern WordPress sites should disable it entirely.
