csf.pignore /home/virtfs executables

Recently I started getting email alerts from LFD about excessive resource usage caused by my sftp server connection. I hadn't made any changes, and put off modifying the csf.pignore file for a couple of months. Today I checked the csf.pignore file, and there is already an entry for exe:/usr/libexec/...

I logged into the server once my block was done, and see that all the possible GB IP's were automatically added.

SMTPAUTH_RESTRICT

Earlier today, I started getting a large number of emails about blocked distributed smtpauth attacks on my email account.
