- 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)
