[Plugin: WordPress Exploit Scanner] Bugs and suggestions: need support for latest release

  • I have tried to run this on my development server but it failed.

    MD5 of hashes-2.9-rare.php:
Warning: md5_file({path-to}\wp-content\plugins\exploit-scanner/hashes-2.9-rare.php) [function.md5-file.php]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in {path-to}\wp-content\plugins\exploit-scanner\exploit-scanner.php on line 64

    Suggestion of next version:
    1) Check if current version of WordPress is supported, if not show appropriate message for non-supported version.

    2) Add option to admin screen to increase/change the memory limit if possible.

    As a good practice one should never run the development version in production. I am not going run code that does not run in development and testing into a production server.

  • Tried this plugin and had some performance issues with it. Debugging the script showed the problem – this scanner does NOT handle large binary files or any binary files that are located in the WordPress directory structure for that matter. May have something to do with its call to file_get_contents when the file being passed is binary? Workaround was to temporarily move my files directory to another location and run the scanner again. Works great otherwise!

    Good ideas! Thanks! May have to filter out large files and list them at the end.

    Try the dev version. it has these ideas in it.
