Attack Analysis

Automated Path-Probing Flood
This IP requested many different non-existent pages within a short window — the signature of an automated sweep working through a wordlist of guessed paths, regardless of which specific filenames it tried. A real visitor following broken links, or a search-engine crawler, never generates this volume of distinct 404s from one IP in under a minute.

Webshell Filename Probe
This IP requested a filename commonly used by webshells and backdoors (c99.php, wp_filemanager.php, and similar) — hoping a previous compromise, on this site or elsewhere, already dropped one at this exact path. A hit would hand the attacker a ready-made remote-control panel with no exploitation needed.
Webshell Upload Scan
This IP rapidly probed multiple non-existent PHP paths in under 60 seconds — a hallmark of automated webshell scanning tools hunting for previously uploaded backdoors or vulnerable file-upload endpoints. If successful, a webshell grants the attacker full remote code execution on the server.
