Google and bing spider crawling useless URLs

Google and bing spider crawling useless URLs

After upgrading my site from Magento 1.938 to 1.942, google and bing spiders began crawling useless URLs such as https://www.example.com/cms/index/noCookies/ and https://www.example.com/wishlist/index/add/product/101/form_key/QRh31BjtGTfy2Ur9/

Google and Bing are crawling these URLs in large numbers, and they have never stopped, which consumes a lot of server resources.

I have added the following command to robots.txt a long time ago.

Disallow: /cms/

Disallow: /wishlist/

 

But this seems to be useless.

When my site running on Magento 1.938, I never found out that Google and bing spiders would crawl these URLs in “Online Customers" tab.

Why is this happening, how to prohibit the crawl of these URLs?

 

I have checked the robots.txt in google robots.txt Tester. There is no error in my robots.txt

robots.txt Tester showed these two URLs had been blocked.
