[GeoNode-users] Script is registering users

Currently yes.
In your case I guess you will need to block the malicious events through a
firewall or something. There are several ways to do that.

You should be able to catch the IP from the web server access logs and
block them.

There are also some nice utilities to automatically detect and block such
kind of attacks. Take a look at the BlockHosts Python script here
