Attack Analysis

WordPress: Brute Force Attack
This IP was blocked attempting to log into a WordPress site's wp-login.php — either from a disallowed country or after exceeding the allowed number of failed login attempts. Automated credential-stuffing and brute-force tools account for the overwhelming majority of this traffic; legitimate users rarely trigger a hard IP block on login alone.

wp-config.php Backup File Probe
This IP requested a backup or editor-leftover copy of wp-config.php (e.g. wp-config.php.bak, wp-config.php~) — the file holding a WordPress site's database credentials and secret keys in plaintext. A successful hit hands an attacker full database access.
Backup & Database File Probe
This IP requested common backup file paths (.bak, .sql, .zip, wp-config.bak), hunting for database dumps or config files containing plaintext credentials. A single exposed wp-config.bak can hand an attacker full database access. This attack is automated and deliberate.
