Mass vuln scans spoofing AI crawler user-agents (ClaudeBot etc.)
- Engineer — Learn: Attackers are masking vulnerability scans behind AI bot user-agents to evade rate-limiting and WAF rules that allowlist crawlers; review whether your WAF/edge allows AI bot UAs without scrutiny and consider tightening controls.
- SOC/IR — Plan: Build or tune detections to flag AI crawler user-agents (e.g. ClaudeBot, GPTBot) associated with high request rates or vulnerability-scanning patterns; hunt web access logs for these UAs performing non-crawl behavior since this technique is actively in use.
