• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Issue Protect wordpress sites against bot/scrapers causing 100% CPU/RAM load.

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.61 Update #5
Hello, we are facing attacks of bots/scrapers on some of our servers sometimes (Multiple domains at once)
This is causing a 100% CPU load across all the cores so all websites become unreachable and the plesk admin UI becomes slow

We enabled the Wordpress Security measures from the Plesk UI on all of the sites that stopped the XMLRPC attacks but there are still attacks that come true
the apache-badbots does not seem to pick them up either and block there IP's the only thing we could do so far is just wait til the attack finished (The last one took quite some time)
