wrap-function, wrap-raf, contextual-ee affixing on web pages

I am experiencing a strange behavior on my website. I recently found on webmaster tools that, it found crawl error 404 for many webpages on my website. I could not understand how these pages are created because all of the 404 pages contains these few words at the end

wrap-function, contextual-ee, wrap-events, wrap-raf, wrap-timer, wrap-xhr

The pages are created by affixing one of these word at the end of normal working pages.

For example the 404 pages are:

mywebsite.com/normalpage1/wrap-funcion

mywebsite.com/nromalpage2/wrap-event

mywebsite.com/normalpage3/wrap-timer

I am using WordPress self hosted blog.

  1. An update to the Browser agent was released yesterday afternoon which contained a fix for this issue. For URLs that have already been crawled, it may it may take some time for the bot to stop attempting to crawl them, but it will eventually resolve on its own.

    To confirm that your site is running the latest version, please search for “372.min.js” in the HTML source. If you have currently running application agents, you may need to restart these agents for the change to be picked up.

  2. Here is the reply from New Relic:

    We understand that the 404s you’re seeing can look concerning. This is
    caused by an issue with the Google crawler where it tries to follow
    links in Javascript. Google strives to detect these types of issues
    and resolve them, and typically this type of issue shouldn’t affect
    your site’s search performance, according to the Google Webmaster
    Tools help: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1154698.

    Our engineers are investigating the best way to address this issue
    since we understand it is a concern for many of our customers. We
    should have a fix developed soon which will resolved these issues.

    If you have any other questions on this, please let us know.

    Cheers,

  3. Are you guys using New Relic? In my case, all these paths seem to be referenced to in New Relic’s JavaScript string to measure page load time. Certainly a new thing, it started happening last week (possibly after New Relic agent upgrade).
