An issue – ?wordfence_syncAttackData=

Hey @panascanic,

This is related to Live Traffic, and shouldn’t be creating actual pages to be indexed. If you visit the URLs what do you see?

Can you ask your host what your server IP is then using the filter in Live Traffic to see if it’s been blocked for some reason? If so, then we address the reason why it’s been blocked.

Please let me know what you find.

Thanks,

Gerroald

Thanks for reply @wfgerald,

and shouldn’t be creating actual pages to be indexed

But all those URLs I have attached here
are from Google Search Console – all of them have been indexed by Google, so I had to delete them from Google`s index after, thats actually was a screenshot of URLs for deleting.

– If you visit the URLs what do you see?

As far as I remember: nothing or just a redirect to home page, can`t say for sure, I have rid out of this problem few months ago.

Can you ask your host what your server IP
I have checked the IP of my website within rules of blocking – no I didn`t block IP of a website for sure.

But I have a long list of:
Immediately block IPs that access these URLs

I have created one according to annoying requests I have noticed in Live Traffic.

And more related to this:

Can you ask your host what your server IP is then using the filter in Live Traffic to see if it’s been blocked for some reason?

I see this issue ?wordfence_syncAttackData=157 when a random client visits my website – today I have noticed that it appears not everytime, but I cant get the reason why. For example 3 different visiters screenshots

Two of them shows this issue with ?wordfence_syncAttackData=157 and one hasnt this error.

Hey @panascanic,

Thanks for the update, and extra information.

You’re not actually looking for the IP of the site, but rather the server. If you’re not sure what it is your host can share it with you. When you find it you’ll want to unblock it and whitelist it.

Please let me know how it goes.

Thanks,

Hey @wfgerald,

You’re not actually looking for the IP of the site, but rather the server.

Its a shared WP hosting – when one IP is dedicated for many websites.
So, if I have blacklisted one which belongs to a server (not to a website – which is a bit wierd…) this issue should go all the time. But its not so.

“attack” issue doesnt appear when:
– bots crawl a website
– bots try to access wp-login, theme folder etc.

It appears ONLY when a user browse a website, but sometimes doesnt appear at all. Which means – there is no connection with “blocked IP of server” – cause if it blocks then it goes constantly and if blocked IP of own server and /?wordfence_syncAttackData= error goes together, so it should appear with every another user, but its not so.

This screenshot shows that wordfence_syncAttackData= appears randomly

Which might proove that “IP blocking” not the reason here.

Hi @wfgerald

Well, I have installed another website today which totally kills the idea of “self blocking on a server level”.

I have installed Worfence, activated a few settings and Live Traffic as well.
List of blocking IP was empty and later on I got same issue, here is a screenshot.
