Dear Wordfence,
In January 2024, I installed a new website and disabled XML-RPC authentication, as I do for every website I install. During maintenance today, I noticed a large number of brute force attacks on /xmlrpc.php (error 503). I don’t know if this has been the case from the beginning or not. I never experienced this before with the other websites.
In the meantime:
I disabled and reset the XML-RPC authentication by marking the option. I’m still getting brute force attacks on /xmlrpc.php.
I also checked the diagnostics but this seems ok.
Any thoughts? Thank you & regards,
Hilde.
PS. I am on the latest version 7.11.3
