Attack Analysis
WordPress XML-RPC Abuse
This IP accessed xmlrpc.php on a site where the owner has explicitly disabled it. xmlrpc.php is a legacy WordPress endpoint long abused for brute-force login attempts (via its multicall method) and DDoS pingback amplification; sites that don't need it disable it outright, making any access attempt inherently unwanted.
