Wordpress Pingback DDoS Attacks in domain: veris.in

Wordpress blogs that have xmlrpc.php enabled for pingbacks, trackbacks, etc. can be made as a part of a huge botnet causing a major DDOS. The website veris.in has the xmlrpc.php file enabled and could thus be potentially used for such an attack against other victim hosts.
