WordPress XML-RPC/wp-login credential spray (WP.SPRAY pattern)
Detects credential-spraying activity against WordPress sites where an actor performs a sequence of POST requests targeting both xmlrpc.php (typically the 'wp.getUsersBlogs' method) and wp-login.php. The rule specifically identifies attackers that attempt to evade detection or increase success rates by falling back to wp-login.php after initially using XML-RPC within a short duration.
