    My xmlrpc file was changed and it wasn’t me. All the text in the file was erased and replaced with
    exit(0).

    The only thing I did yesterday was installed a SSL certificate. Would that affect that file?

    I reverted the file back to the original. I can change it back if necessary.

    What should I do? How concerned do I need to be that the file was changed?

    If someone were trying to hack you, that would be a very strange way to do it. This may have been something done by your host. Check with them.

    Scan your files with WordFence and see if any others differ from the WP distribution.

    WordFence caught the change. I’ll check with my host
