What are the steps to reproduce the issue?
In my cloudflare F/W logs I am seeing a large amount of IPs showing (with no Query string) EMPTY that is showing when the following URL is being hit on my site they are getting blocked - /wp-content/plugins/litespeed-cache/guest.vary.php
I am not a WordPress expert or a security expert in such matters. I am reaching out to this forum in the hope there might be someone that reads this and can tell me if I have an issue here, also, if this means legitimiate users could also be getting blocked and causing less traffic to my site
Question 1. - As this URL is showing as blocked by IPs accessing it, is it blocking legitimiate users also, which could be casuing my site to get less traffic?
Question 2. - As this is some kind of caching URL for litespeed cache, because it is being blocked could it be making my site load slower for anyone that its not allowlisted?
Question 3. - If I make a rule to allow users and stop it from being blocked, could this be a security issue? Are they attemping to access this URL with bots for a MISC reason?
Question 4 - Is this URL just “Wordpress Noise” and is nothing I need to worty about.
Thank you.
