I am going to guess that , as Bob pointed out, is probably due to a reflection problem in the input side of the attenuator. Could be the attenuator input impedance is not a good match to the source, or could be a cable impedance issue.

One trick is to move the attenuator to the other end of the cable (i.e. 
at the output of the device) and then run the coax to your 50 ohm scope 
input, and see what it looks like.
