Redirect to spam site malware on website

devyo — Sat, 09 Sep 2023 11:57:52 +0000

Hi all, my website has been recently attacked by a redirect malware hack becoz my homepage was redirecting to spammy sites everytime I opened. I also found 3 new user on my dashboard, I deleted those real quick. Then I manually detected and removed malicious suspected file from file manager. I then checked my homepage was working perfectly. I was happy that I was able to fix issue and save my website on my first experience of attack. I opened the website URL through Google search and found that some of the links were still redirecting to spammy site. I thought that this will be updated on google with time itself. Then I updated all plugin, themes, WordPress to latest version. Then I installed Wordfence Security Plugin to protect my website from future attacks. I made a scan and It did scanned few unwanted files on first scan, I removed those files successfully and again rescanned for further evaluation. This time it showed ” No issue found on websites”. Now the problem is that when a user first opens my website URL and goes to any page , it is still redirecting to spam site. few targeted pages are blog page or any product page.

Steps to reproduce problem:
->Visit the URL mentioned above and go to blog page and click on any blog posts. You could see the redirection happening.
->Second step, Visit the website URL, In homepage, in the featured wall arts or featured Greeting cards, click on ‘view all‘ button. You will be taken to all products page then click on any products ‘select options‘ button, you can see the redirection happening. It should open product details page but it will take you to redirected site.

Things I have done so far:
1) Manually checked all WP files for malicious codes.
2) Updates all plugins, themes and even WordPress version to latest.
3) Changed all passwords of WP dashboard, databases, ftp access.
4) Installed WordFence Security Plugin and scanned many times till It showed ‘No problems in website’.
5) I even checked wp_posts?and?wp_options tables for any redirection links but found none.

Does it has to do anything with cookie or Do I need to submit the fresh sitemap to google again ?
Please Please please suggest me soon what should i do next? Please help me. It’s really important for me to solve this. I’m pretty new to this experience. Its getting really frustating, despite doing all things, still this redirection issue exists in atleast for one product page or blog post page the first time I open. After this one redirection , if i again open the same product page or blog post page, It opens fine.

[Theme: Sahifa] Malware attack on website

roytapan — Thu, 28 Jul 2016 05:59:27 +0000

Hi,

Earlier I had paid to build my CMS website from a professional Web Designing & Development company. We had paid for web hosting, domain name and website setup. Sahifa premium theme was used to built it.

Recently in May there was a malware attack on the site and it had to be taken down.
Now the company from which i got built site is recharging me to re build the website. Is it legal to charge me again? As it was malware attack and I think he was responsible to manage it.

Now I am learning on my own to setup wordpress theme and page setup. So I
asked him to provide me the same Sahifa theme as we had paid for it.
My question is can Sahifa premium theme can be reused for same domain name which had malware attack?
Please help me on this.

-Thanks,
Tapan

Why are my files showing .suspected even though I have got all malware cleaned

manishak — Sun, 10 Jan 2016 16:21:33 +0000

Last month, my sites were hacked and there was malware. I got that cleaned. But I am seeing that a lot of my files show .suspected extension. Why is that and how can I fix it up? I am very frustrated. Also I am unable to access two of my websites. Every time I try to access them, I get this fatal error message and a warning. Is it due to that malware attack? I am confused. Can anyone help me on this issue?

How to restore wordpress after malware attack

Wed, 23 May 2012 09:25:17 +0000

Yesterday I visited my website, www.beyondthedarkhorizon.com and noticed that it was blocked and listed as a “suspicious website” due to malware. I used Sucuri Malware check to run a test on my site and sure enough malware was picked up. I deleted the javascript code causing the malware and did another test. Malware is gone but now my site is not available and showing 500 – Internal Server Error.
Is my site wiped? Is there anything I can do to restore it to its state prior to the attack? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Script-insert Malware! I have a disease, do you know the cure?

socrates1977 — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 07:01:39 +0000

Thanks in advance for helping!

My problem: Every three days or so, three of my WordPress files are mysteriously re-written to append this code:

[malware code removed by moderator]

(full text at bottom)

The three files are:

default-embeds.php
default-filters.php
default-widgets.php

When this happens, the site cannot load, even to the login page, and throws an error on line 269 of default-filters.php. Avast anti-virus will show a warning for a Trojan redirect attack.

When I restore these three files, the site works normally, but usually within three days, the files are re-written as before, and the site goes down.

Any advice on how to solve this problem is greatly appreciated!
