What's the best way to avoid/prevent this from happening?...
Since the IP is part of a Turkish /24 network, odds are it's a hack attempt. If you don't care about servicing Turkey, you could block that IP space in your firewall. Pertinent information: inetnum: 185.4.227.0 - 185.4.227.255 netname: SAYFANET descr: Istanbul DC Customer country: TR admin-c: KSM20-RIPE tech-c: KSM20-RIPE status: ASSIGNED PA mnt-by: ER101-MNT source: RIPE # Filtered ("whois 185.4.227.194" will give you the gory details), so add that /24 to your filter list. In the old days: iptables -I INPUT [some-rulenumber] -s 185.4.227.0/24 -j DROP It's difficult to weed out traffic selectively unless you have the ability to do a deep packet inspection and look at the actual request. Generally that equipment costs a good deal of $$$$.

I see several of those kinds of GETs a day on our web servers. Not from that particular domain, but similar types of GETs. A quick google points to similar GET requests to that domain as far back as 2011, and the domain itself isn't live, just a placeholder for parked domain. - -- Mark Haney Network/Systems Administrator Practichem W: (919) 714-8428 Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug) 3.13.4-200.fc20.x86_64 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTFLTbAAoJEM/YzwEAv6e7lMUH/20KyuLCbB9FeGV5fbe1OB8s AQUxwifz9XyyD+5x3EEs4Oeg062/cyySVAcE5KyFEoQvfeMXGJEpzcHS2fXWHkSk q7w25D78iQzIvZlD0Y1XDxxJ4X8td6rBKARGTNyL94mRhunEJGH/kiVhqEBnJLxW o1GQLjlLg2vNlpDDjjhko4cqATDFJOv8fBDh/CyY/PcfHC8XcPR0SGQ+Tz24PnGx VzpIvysV2iJiARQgscg8/gDQo772eqLDLIEmo/6Z1uVBCYa8MUCxge122JMvAvJ5 hBiEIhc7s6VHGGImyQaUDxjZ/q47jBazmDp6SIu5fUyTlbl759JE33erOhkglIQ= =nqC7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
