Newly getting Login attempt failed msgs since 105.mumble

Been using HA for a year or so, updated recently to 0.105.3 (maybe coincidence) and now getting regular “Login attempt failed” from the PC on which I run the browser connected to HA.

I am logging in with saved credentials, not entering any. HA is working fine, I can connect fine. The exact message is:

2020-02-16 11:17:17 WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.http.ban] Login attempt or request with invalid authentication from 192.168.130.41

HA is not exposed externally. There’s nothing unusual running on my PC.

It is also possible that an update to Chrome or windows may have been involved, both are fully up to date, but the timing of the 105 updates is the best match to when it started (though I went through each subversion and not sure on which it started). I have been unable to find any particular thing I do to cause it – I am making relatively minor configuration changes, setting up different camera types for streaming, cleaning up some unused entities, etc. Purposely going into a bunch of options to try to cause it has no effect. It does not seem to happen when I am not actively using it (vs it just sitting there logged in).

HA is in Hassio on a VM on a different server and subnet, and this does not correspond to reboots or restarts there.

Anyone else seeing these? Any ideas?

Sadly it is maybe 2-3 times a day max, making it harder to pin down. If it’s not something known I’ll start a sniffer trace and just let it run until it happens again, though unfortunately all that will show are packets, not what originated them on the PC.

Hi, did you get anywhere with this issue. I have the same problem, only happens a handful of times a day.
I have been blaming the picture-entity card with a live camera stream that pops up when motion is detected.
Thanks

Never learned anything, tried sniffing a few times and never caught it. Then it just stopped. I’m on .106.4 now, so not sure if it’s related to that, or to something else I was changing. I had been, around these times, working with cameras and picture cards of various flavors, so that may be related (though I had none that automated the live view popup). I do now use picture-entity with manual click to live.
