Description: ### **Executive summary:** On August 15th, 2022 at 02:01 IST \(UTC \+2\) Frontegg underwent a sophisticated DDOS subdomain organized attack. The attackers used multiple servers spread across a variety of Digital Ocean IPs. Each Server executed a low number of requests per second so our WAF did not trigger rate-limiting rules, yet it was recognized that many of the paths were related to WordPress engine's known weakness. By 03:21 the attack had been successfully mitigated. At 04:46 a second organized attack began. The restrictions put in place by the previous attack were helpful in mitigating the second attack. By 05:30 all traffic returned to normal ### **Affect:** The incident caused a degraded performance to our API gateway. As a result, our API returned 504 and 524 errors to partial traffic over the course of the incident. The majority of these errors were returned between 02:01 IST and 02:30 IST, when our mitigation efforts began to have an effect. A majority of traffic was still able to go through without error during this time. ### **Mitigation and resolution:** Our initial response to the attack was to increase our rate limiting and WAF constraints. This initial step was implemented at 02:30 IST. Once we understood the level of sophistication and distribution of the attack, we implemented changes on the application level, including a different routing mechanism and added more specific WAF constraints based on origins of the attacking traffic, which took effect by 03:21 IST. ### **Preventive steps:** In order to prevent attacks like this in the future, we are implementing a more sophisticated route blocking mechanism to our API-gateway. Additionally we have reported the incident to the cloud provider which hosted a majority of the attacking traffic, and we are consulting with our WAF provider for further guidance on preventing such attacks.
