Bulletproof HostingLimited Network LTD (AS213790)
Limited Network LTD (AS213790) is a UK-registered but Romania-operated hosting entity whose address space is listed on Spamhaus DROP. The abuse contact routes to a Romanian address — a pattern consistent with Eastern European bulletproof hosting using UK shell companies as legitimacy facades. Flagged by multiple honeypot networks for reconnaissance and intrusion attempts.
Attack Analysis
IDS: Blocklist — Spamhaus DROP
This IP is on the Spamhaus DROP list — a dataset of netblocks hijacked or leased by professional spam and cybercrime operations with no legitimate users. Traffic from DROP-listed ranges is considered hostile by design. Blocking is unconditional.
IDS: Blocklist — Dshield
This IP was reported to the DShield community blocklist by multiple independent security sensors worldwide. DShield aggregates firewall logs from thousands of contributors; IPs on this list are confirmed active attackers observed across many networks.
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.
