Remote text insertion into post

  • I have found a few times that SOMEHOW, people are somehow inserting random links directly into the content of my posts. My account has a hard password and the server is physically and firewall-wise locked down very tightly. I saw this start happening in 2.7.1 and it might have happened in my 2.8…

    If people can subtly insert harmless links, then any HTML can be inserted…

    Unfortunately, my current host doesn’t keep log files for long, so the date that I narrowed it down to, I don’t have the data for.

    Anyone else have this problem?

    This is the same manner it has been happening on mine, even some of the links in his are the same as the ones I saw.

    Hi,

    wordpress is an open source code so change the password for your blog at regular intervals..upgrade all the plugins and install the only one which are compatible with wordpress version

    Do not install any vulnerable script into your domain

    Thanks,

    Shane G.
