Hello, i recently discovered, that some crawler is trying random paths on my domain to find unsecured .env files.

My router has port 80 and 443 exposed to the internet. The ports are facing to my Nginx Proxy Manager and I use Docker, where I host Shlink and my Nginx Proxy Manager.

Should I be worried and secure or even close my service? Or is there a great way to block these requests. Or is there even nothing to worry about?

I am using my domain with Cloudflare. It did surprise me, the requests weren’t blocked automatically.

Thanks in advance!
