Hello.

1. I received a message in the mail: "We would like to notify you that a security exception was detected on your site, EuroNeon.ru, with the following details: IP Address: 185.43.6.200 (IP Lookup: IP Lookup)
Reason: WAF Blacklist"
Question: Do I need to do something in the "WAF Blacklist" settings or add IP 185.43.6.200 to the "Site IP Blacklist"? What should be done in such cases?
P.S.
I read the https://www.akeebabackup.com/documentation/admin-tools/wafblacklist.html manual, but did not understand anything.

2. I found an accessible page on the site: https://euroneon.ru/component/content/?id=61&Itemid=232
Question: Can this page be a vulnerability?

  1. There are two default rules in the WAF Blacklist. These two rules protect against a vulnerability in an old version of Joomla!, your up-to-date version is not affected by it. It is possible that someone tried to exploit your site using the old venerability and Admin Tools blocked it. Once in a great while these two rules catch a false positive, they block something that they shouldn't. With your version of Joomla! you can safely disable these two rules (you can't delete them, they will just come back).
  2. I was not able to directly access the URL that you provided. I was redirected to the home page.
