Yes, there are some attackers that do silly things like that. And since they make lot of noise they appear also a lot on the logs. But it happens that there are also intelligent attackers out there. They will first try to find hosts running the affected version that their exploit targets. This last ones are usually more successful and you won't see them in the logs of any Internet-facing service because they don't make noise trying exploit after exploit.
