The next big mistake is configuring your packet filters and application ACLs to only filter requests coming in from the internet; they can still make requests to 54.175.131.207 or whatever the IP is and the source of the request packets will be from the loopback interface.

And the IPv6 equivalent is "::1". Did they even set up basic packet filtering or ACLs for IPv6 requests? If they have no public IPv6 address, they probably never did.
