IP Intelligence Briefing: 142.44.220.174
Date: 2026-06-13
1. Profile Summary
- Risk Score: Moderate (50/100)
- Ownership: Owned by Ahrefs Pte Ltd (OVH ASN 16276).
- Geolocation: Registered to Canada (CA), but geolocation data indicates a spoofed origin (claimed city: Singapore). GeoPlausible flag is false due to RTT discrepancy (27ms vs. expected 112ms for 5,598km distance).
- Network Role: CloudCompute infrastructure (OVH-hosted).
- Threat Indicators: No malicious activity detected (no indicators, blacklists, or campaigns).
2. Observation History
- DNS: Resolves to `proxy-ca006-san174.ahrefs.net` (ahrefs.net).
- Network Activity:
- Last scanned on 2026-06-02 (no open ports detected).
- BGP route stability: unstable (route changes in 30 days).
- DNSSEC validated, but DNSBL listed on 2 out of 8 lists.
- Traceroute Anomalies: RTT values inconsistent with geographic distance, suggesting potential spoofing or misconfigured DNS.
3. Relationships & Neighbors
- Network Connections: Linked to OVH network `OVH-CUST-281059685` (142.44.220.0/24).
- Subnet Abuse Density: 46.4% (moderate risk).
- Neighbor Risk: 95 IPs in subnet flagged as medium/low risk; 116 siblings classified as high/medium risk.
4. Actionable Insights
- Geolocation Discrepancy: Investigate spoofing or misconfigured DNS for 142.44.220.174. Validate IP's true geographic origin.
- DNS Monitoring: Track DNS resolution patterns for `ahrefs.net` to ensure no unauthorized subdomains.
- Subnet Risk: Monitor neighboring IPs (especially high-risk siblings) for potential lateral movement or compromised hosts.
- Cloud Infrastructure: Confirm OVH-hosted resources are properly secured, as cloud compute nodes can be targets for exploitation.
5. Recommendations
- Add 142.44.220.174 to monitoring lists for geolocation anomalies.
- Use DNS filtering to block known DNSBL entries (e.g., Spamhaus, OpenDNS).
- Review subnet abuse density trends to prioritize high-risk neighbors for deeper analysis.
