Extreme Threat
IP address 124.198.131.185 is a high-risk address with a threat level of 10/10, associated with confirmed hacking activity, web application probing, and exploit attempts that generated 685 abuse reports from 20 automated honeypot sensors over approximately two months of sustained activity. Despite its United States geolocation, the address operates within AS210558 under the management of 1337 Services GmbH, a network provider whose infrastructure is frequently flagged in threat intelligence feeds. The dominant activity category is general hacking intrusion attempts, with an additional confirmed Suricata signature match for a Linksys E-Series remote-code-execution exploit and generic web application probe patterns detected across honeypot systems. With a confidence score of 94% and an activity frequency rated 8/10, this address represents a persistent, high-confidence threat that should be treated as actively hostile.
The volume and consistency of reporting for 124.198.131.185 paint a clear picture of systematic hostile scanning rather than incidental misconfiguration. Across April and May 2026, the address generated 685 total reports from a broad base of 20 separate automated honeypot sensors, indicating that the scanning or attack traffic is reaching diverse network environments. The primary classification of Hacking activity (18 confirmed instances) combined with Web App Attack (1) and Exploited Host (1) classifications suggests the address is being used both for active exploitation attempts and potentially as a platform originating from a previously compromised system. The explicit ET EXPLOIT signature match for a Linksys E-Series device remote-code-execution attempt confirms the deployment of known exploit tooling, while general web app probe patterns indicate ongoing reconnaissance against web-facing services.
The dominant hacking activity linked to this address involves intrusion attempts, vulnerability exploitation, and unauthorized access scanning, which in practical terms means an attacker is systematically probing for weaknesses in exposed services to gain foothold. The Suricata exploit signature specifically references a known remote-code-execution vulnerability in Linksys E-Series router firmware, a category of attack that could allow complete device compromise if successful. Web application attack patterns suggest the address is also conducting reconnaissance against web-facing software, probing for OWASP Top 10 class vulnerabilities such as injection flaws or file inclusion issues. When combined with the Exploited Host classification, these indicators suggest the address may simultaneously be used as both an attack originator and a compromised staging point, amplifying its danger to any directly reachable network segment.
