Account registration flood
Posted: 09 Jul 2008, 16:31
I have the latest 1.1.2 version of Mantis install on a Linux host, and get a continuous stream of bogus account registrations. Up to 10 per day and on occasion what looks like a bot registering once every 5 minutes or so.
I assume this would only be done if there was some benefit for the perpetrators. Are there current or old exploits that would allow people to send spam or gain access to my host by simply creating accounts, but never actually logging in?
