185.220.101.174 has a threat confidence score of 91%. This IP address from Germany (AS60729, Stiftung Erneuerbare Freiheit) has been observed in 19 honeypot sessions targeting POSTGRES, SSH, SMB, HTTP protocols. This IP is a known Tor exit node. Detected attack patterns include postgres copy from program execution chain, http dotenv file exposure probe. First observed on January 27, 2026, most recently active March 3, 2026.
Represents a complete, tightly scoped PostgreSQL exploitation chain where a client initiates a transaction, fingerprints the server version, prepares a temporary table, executes an external system command via COPY FROM PROGRAM, retrieves the command output, and immediately cleans up by dropping the table. This sequence is highly characteristic of automated post-authentication exploitation tooling that abuses PostgreSQL’s trusted language and program execution features for one-shot remote command execution, output capture, and minimal on-disk footprint. The rapid execution and cleanup indicate intent to execute payloads rather than interact with the database as a datastore.
Identifies HTTP GET requests targeting the /.env file, indicating attempts to access exposed environment configuration files commonly containing application secrets such as database credentials, API keys, and service tokens.
