Firewall request

Dear, I have general questions about the firewall. I have installed the plugin Defender from WPUDEV at a friend who has no Cloudflare installed.

He has now received messages that the following request was blocked:

  1. /wp-config.php_disabled
  2. /wp2/

On my pages where I even have Cloudflare Pro and only use Cloudflare, does Cloudflare block such requests? Or do I need an extra security firewall plugin?

Sorry for my ignorance, but I do not know this kind of requests.

Thank you very much for your information. Stay healthy. Best regards Neo

Cloudflare generally doesn’t block specific files and path. WAF on Pro only blocks malicious requests.

If you want to block files and paths, you would have add a Firewall Rule to do this.
