    My 10 websites were hacked by this plugin.

    Suddenly WordPress login was changed to admin

    and all plugins were deactivated and in the plugins folder, I see this plugin but it called random letters erfsdf/malware codes.

    Does anyone know how this happening?

    Please help.

    This is a big problem. Somehow this plugin is installed on several of my sites also.

    Got hacked – this plugin was added to my install. I’m on Inmotion hosting. These were my plugins at time of hack:

    My plugins at the time of hack:
    – Admin Columns
    – Advanced Custom Fields
    – Classic Editor
    – Custom Post Type UI
    – Divi Accessibility
    – Duplicator
    – Imsanity
    – Post Types Order
    – Really Simple SSL
    – Spotlight – Social Media Feeds
    – Wordfence
    – Yoast SEO

    A client of mine has the same issue. I did a scan with WordFence and Sucuri and both didn’t find anything.

    The only plugins in common with Brian are WordFence and Yoast.

    Other than that the plugins installed are:

    Antispam Bee
    Avada Builder
    Avada Core
    BackupBuddy
    Contact Form 7
    Events Shortcodes and Templates Addon
    Green Popups (formerly Layerd Popups)
    Mailster – Email Newsletter Plugin for WordPress
    ManageWP – Worker
    Paytium
    The Events Calendar
    Ultimate GDPR & CCPA
    WordFence Security
    WP Reset Pro
    Yoast SEO

    Did anyone solve this or found the culprit?

    A client’s website was hacked overnight and this plugin installed.

    The only plugin my client has in common with those above is Wordfence and that had been made harmless because they had changed something in the Wordfence directory which caused it not to load correctly.

    The main admin had been changed to Anonymous Fox.

    I solved it in the end by overwriting all plugins with new files.
