Attack Analysis
Listed on 1 threat-intelligence blocklist
- FireHOL level2 — FireHOL level2 lists addresses seen attacking in the last 48 hours across many sensors. It is large and volatile: addresses enter and leave quickly, so on its own this is weaker, recent-activity evidence.
Plugin/Theme Version Fingerprinting Probe
This IP requested an installed plugin or theme's readme.txt/changelog.txt directly over HTTP — the file's "Stable tag:" line names the exact installed version, which an attacker cross-references against known CVEs for that version before firing the real exploit. WordPress.org's own tooling reads this file server-side, never over HTTP.
