Critical Threat
IP 82.208.22.61 is a critical-risk address operating from Contabo GmbH's German network infrastructure that has accumulated 569 total abuse reports, with its most recent activity centered on web application attack probes detected by automated honeypot sensors during November 2025. Despite a severe 10/10 threat classification, the activity frequency metric of 0/10 suggests that while the historical threat potential remains extremely high, the volume of recent reporting has tapered, though any fresh detections warrant immediate defensive response.
The IP's threat profile is anchored in its association with web application reconnaissance and attack attempts, generating 20 separate reports from honeypot sensors within the November 2025 reporting window. The network operator, Contabo GmbH (ASN AS51167), routes this address from Germany, and the concentration of attack patterns in the web app/probe category indicates systematic scanning for application-layer vulnerabilities. With a 76% confidence score, the attribution data strongly supports malicious intent rather than misconfiguration or benign scanning traffic. The 569 cumulative reports suggest this address has been flagged persistently over time, reinforcing its reputation as a consistently problematic source.
Web application attacks represent a significant threat category because they target software-layer weaknesses such as those documented in the OWASP Top 10, including injection flaws, cross-site scripting and file inclusion vulnerabilities. An address conducting web app probes is typically the precursor to exploitation attempts, reconnaissance for vulnerable endpoints, or automated exploitation toolkits scanning for known CVEs. Even if the immediate attack traffic appears unsuccessful, successful reconnaissance can yield information about application structure, version details or misconfigurations that enable subsequent targeted intrusions.
Site operators with publicly accessible web applications should immediately block or rate-limit traffic from this address at the firewall or WAF layer and monitor for any matching source traffic in access logs. Implementing fail2ban or similar dynamic blocking tools can automate responses to repeated probing patterns. Keeping web applications fully patched, employing input validation and deploying a properly configured WAF will reduce the effectiveness of any web app attack vectors this address attempts to exploit.
