Attack Analysis

Listed on 2 threat-intelligence blocklists
  • Spamhaus DROP — Spamhaus DROP lists netblocks hijacked or leased by professional spam and cybercrime operations. Very low false-positive rate: no legitimate traffic is expected from these ranges.
  • FireHOL level1 — FireHOL level1 merges DShield, Spamhaus DROP, bogon ranges and Feodo botnet servers into one curated list built for very low false positives. When DShield or Spamhaus DROP also match, this one adds no independent evidence, since it already contains them.
Curated, low-false-positive lists match, so this is a high-confidence bad address.
Bad Bot Flood
This IP generated over 20 HTTP 4xx errors in 60 seconds using a User-Agent identified as a bad bot (scraper, headless browser, or attack proxy). The high error rate indicates automated probing for vulnerabilities while trying to appear as generic traffic. Legitimate services respect robots.txt and do not flood servers with errors.
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.
