Just to jump in on this, this just started happening to our system a couple
days ago. (To the tune of 3GB of webserver access logs yesterday)
Our server gives them a 403 for /yealink/ (and a 404 for everything else) -
given that they're still trying to bruteforce it, it looks like I'm gonna
be changing it to give them a 404.
Looks like someone's making a big effort to  find provisioning files though.
