blog being attacked!? plz help
-
Hi All,
I use WordPress Firewall plugin on my site and the last two days I seem to be getting hit a few times per minute with some sort of attack. 1000s of alerts and growing!
I think, I’m not too sure on these messages, most are easy to tell what is going on but I’m lost with these.
Can anyone else clue me in here? Am I being attacked, or is there some sort of misconfig causing this?

——————–So looking at the above:
I see ‘ozh’ which makes me think this has something to do with the Who Sees Ads plugin (made by Ozh), which it could be, but I also see CFID and CFTOKEN etc and that is Coldfusion which I don’t use on my site. The offending ips are also not mine.
If anyone has a clue here I’d really appreciate any help you can provide as it makes me very nervous to be getting so many alerts like this!
Thanks!
