Are there any options to halt this situation? You might reach out to your VPS supplier, as you think they offer DDoS safeguards for this machine. It only lasted under 24 hours.

Well I might be mistaken, but once your DNS server found that address, it gets stored in its cache. After that, it doesn’t need to contact Cloudflare anymore because the information is still valid in the cache. Cloudflare only sees one request, which doesn’t raise any concerns on their side.
It seems like a DNS reflection attack is occurring. It's frustrating to stop it. The IP address is linked to the victim, not the attacker. Preventing it is tough, but you can modify your DNS requests to block relay or port 0. I can consult one of our DNS experts for help. That’s something I need.
