Honeypot logs show repeated proxy-style requests targeting the cloud metadata service (169.254.169.254) and related paths (e.g., /latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/) using IPv6-mapped IPv4, expanded zeroed IPv6 notation, and integer IP encodings to bypass filters; the intent is to retrieve instance IAM credentials via SSRF or proxy forwarding.
