Hi List! Someone is sending mass render requests without giving a "Requested by" and all requests with prio 2.
I consider this as a potential DOS (denial of service) attack since normal rendering of changed tiles is blocked. In any case this makes no sense. We should think about a way of stopping DOS attacks. I could think of two ways: 1.) Users have to authenticate to send render requests with prio 1 or 2. 2.) Users (IPs) can only send a maximum number of prio 2 requests just like it is with prio 1 requests. The number of allowed prio 2 requests should be higher of course (e.g. 1000). What do you think?
