    Hi

    I have a high alert (3 website) from worfence with 144 files this is one wp-admin/css/colors/blue/php.ini. Details say: This file is in a WordPress core location but is not distributed with this version of WordPress. This scan often includes files left over from a previous WordPress version, but it may also find files added by another plugin, files added by your host, or malicious files added by an attacker. 144 more similar files were found.

    Any ideas as to where this comes from ? I have seen in another topic that it may be due to ionos ( 1&1), but I have spoken to them and they claim it has nothing to do with them.

    Thanks so much

    Hi @wolflpy

    We have seen many times that 1&1 hosting creates a php.ini file in every directory it finds in WordPress.

    Please ask for your ticket with 1&1 to be escalated as the person you are speaking to at 1&1 front line support may not know about this.

    Hi wfphil,

    Ok thank you for your confirmation.
    That’s what I’m going to do again.

    Best regards
