Extreme Threat
IP 118.194.250.31 is a maximum-threat-level address linked to 164 abuse reports across automated honeypot sensors, with hacking activity as the dominant threat category over its six-month active window from December 2025 through May 2026. The confidence score of 74 percent reflects substantial but not definitive attribution, while the activity frequency rating of 5 out of 10 indicates persistent rather than continuous engagement. Thai network infrastructure routes through AS135377 under the operator UCLOUD INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY HK LIMITED, positioning this IP within a hosting environment frequently associated with transient threat actors.
The evidence base comprises 20 independent automated honeypot detections generating 164 total reports, with recent categorization showing 19 hacking-class incidents alongside web application attacks and one exploited-host flag. Suricata sensor alerts document protocol detection anomalies indicating irregular traffic patterns, including mismatch conditions suggesting reconnaissance or probing activity directed at web-facing assets. TLS-layer anomalies were also flagged, pointing toward potential malware command-and-control behaviour or exploitation toolkit communications. The exploited-host classification implies this address may itself operate as a compromised platform conducting attacks without the owner's awareness.
The dominant hacking classification encompasses intrusion attempts, vulnerability exploitation, and unauthorized access probing against exposed services. Combined with dedicated web application attack vectors targeting OWASP Top 10 weaknesses, an exposed service faces realistic risk of initial compromise, lateral movement, or data exfiltration. The TLS irregularities specifically suggest the use of customized attack tooling designed to evade basic detection, elevating the sophistication of the threat beyond opportunistic script-kiddie activity.
Site operators should block this IP address at the network perimeter and deploy web application firewall rules tuned to the observed attack patterns. Implementing strong authentication mechanisms, applying rate-limiting policies, and hardening SSH and web service configurations will reduce exposure to the credential-guessing and exploitation attempts associated with this address. Regular security audits, timely patching cycles, and continuous monitoring using intrusion detection signatures aligned with the flagged Suricata alerts will further harden defences against the activity this threat actor exhibits.
