I recently started seeing a bunch of probably malicious requests (probing for wordpress plugins on my lemmy host) coming from Cloudflare IP addresses. I do use Cloudflare for my nameservers, but the records are set to DNS only (not Proxy).

These requests all come from a Cloudflare IPv4, with 2a06:98c0:3600::103 as the X-Forwarded-For header, which VirusTotal also attributes to Cloudflare. There is nothing else in the X-Forwarded-For chain.

Does anyone know what is going on or have any hypothesis ?

    Cloudflare have “workers” that can run code, and anyone can create them, my guess is abuse? You can try contacting cloudflare.
