Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted November 24, 201311 yr Looking down my ACP login attempts list there is a huge number of attempts may by people apparently trying to get in, with generic usernames, etc. No enough to be what I would call a brute-force attack or anything like that, but just surprised me and and wondered if it was something to worry about?

November 24, 201311 yr That's either a very poor attempt at "hacking" into your ACP, or a badly coded crawler. Either way, annoying. We'd suggest blocking two ranges in your server Firewall. They're owned by the same entity and smell suspicious: 37.1.200.0/21 5.45.64.0/21 Those ranges have been the two we've seen being used so far.
