I'm seeing some very strange behavior from my Apache web server, and I'm afraid it may have been compromised. Every time I start it, my router is saturated with the maximum number of connections it can handle, and my access_log starts filling with lines like:
Start whatever HTTP server in place of Apache, and see if you still get these requests by analyzing their access.logs. Then you will know if you really get these requests or they are fake.
Thanks for the idea. I had just been approaching it from the idea of trying to figure out what was going on with Apache. I installed, and started Nginx, and sure enough, it started getting blown up with those requests. Now, I guess I have to figure out why on earth those requests would be coming to my humble home web server.
