Iโm not sure what it is for, maybe trying to exploit wordpress or ? In any case, itโs doing all these requests in less than a few seconds which is completely unacceptable, and without a User-Agent also, so no way to contact whoever is doing this.
@fun these are scans for known wordpress vulnerabilities, no? The ms ip addresses are probably azure.
