It looks like someone is fuzzing your website and scanning to find any common file names or extensions that commonly have security vulnerabilities. One way to limit this behaviour is to implement rate limiting whereby you might limit the number of requests a user makes that result in HTTP 404 Not Found during some time period before giving them a temporary ban. Note: this solution doesn't stop this from happening but it does buy you time and may deter the attacker or researcher
