I am running a website on AWS EC2 instance. I am logging http requests headers. When I checked the logs, I noticed that there are many requests from the AWS EC2 instance public ip.
Example:-
AWS EC2 public ip : 1.2.3.4
{"headers":{"host":"1.2.3.4:80"}}
Is it possible to have server sending http request to itself for viewing web pages?
I am logging each request and the url they are requested.
I tested and logged the files locally by creating a local server but there were no requests from server to itself or something like this.
I am new here, help me with some explanation. Is it a security threat? If it is, How it can be resolved?
