icmp denies type 11 code 0 on my outside interface ASA

I see constant floods of  icmp denies type 11 code 0 on my outside ASA interface in the syslog. 

 

Apr 04 2020 11:19:36 {ISP IP} {INTERNAL IP} Deny icmp src outside:{ISP IP} dst inside:{INTERNAL IP} (type 11, code 0) by access-group "Outside" [0x0, 0x0]

 

From my understanding, this is a TTL expiry packet. The source IP address is coming from ISP router that's not on our site. I am not sure what's happening here. Could this be a NAT issue? Anyone had similar problem?

Hi,
Someone inside your network (the internal IP address in the log) has run traceroute through your firewall, icmp type 11 (time-exceeded) would be expected response. If you are blocking this, then you won't see the hops in the traceroute.

Hi RJI,
Thanks for your response. I see these denies flooding the syslogs non stop. This is not a one time thing as you mentioned someone running traceroute internally.
