We've seen it happen to folks primarily in vultr but I don't think there is currently
any reason to believe vultr specifically is a target. Getting a list of every machine
with ports open on the ipv4 net these days is really not much of a task, so I wouldn't
be surprised if they were just spamming any address they know of listening on web ports.

Either way, I'd update your kernel and userspace and see if that fixes the problem.


Thanks,
moody
