jsonrpc Scanning for root account, (Mon, Nov 13th)

In the past few weeks I have noticed this type of POST activity showing in my honeypot {“id”:0,”jsonrpc“:”2.0″,”method”:”eth_accounts”} looking for ID 0 (root). Activity has a static source port of 65535 and destination port 8080.


Do you have logs to share related to this type of activity?
