First seen on 2026-10-04T21:38:50Z, most recently active on 2026-10-04T21:39:11Z.
Recorded 159 attack-shaped requests across 1 separate day.
Its traffic requested a .env file, hoping to find API keys or database credentials; it also used a directory-traversal segment (literal or percent-encoded ../) in the request path to try to escape the web root; it also requested a common cloud/app secrets or credentials filename (AWS, GCP, Firebase, Kubernetes service-account token, SSH, master key) from a wordlist, hoping one was left in the webroot.
Seen on our edge, web sensors.
Scored into the "Persistent" level, carrying the badge Toolkit.
