Traefik restart anormaly under DDOS attack

Traefik Traefik v3 (latest)
1

Hi,

When I experience a DDOS attack on one of my services, Traefik restarts in a loop. If I disable my WordPress service (the one being attacked), Traefik continues to restart in a loop.
I am forced to recreate the acme.json file so that the certificate linked to WordPress is not recreated. This stops Traefik from restarting in a loop.
I don't understand what is happening.

Is it related to the certificate?
Is it related to the DDOS attack?

I have never had this problem before. My services have been running for several years.

Do you need any configuration information?

Thx
