Delete and reinstall worked for me. Something about updating automatically broke the plugin for me on multiple sites.

Hi mbrsolution:

I came to this page for a couple of reasons, but I had the same experience as kirktalon. My host sent me the following:

Nick,

It’s come to our attention that your [domain omitted] (gs) Grid-Service has been compromised and is hosting malicious files. These files are being used to relay spam and attack other servers on the Internet. This degrades your service, as well as the service of others, and is a large consumer of resources overall. While the plugin developer has not yet confirmed the presence of a vulnerability, we have noticed malicious scans targeting the ‘xcloner-backup-and-restore’ plugin installed at the following path:

[path omitted]/html/wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore

As a result of the malicious scans, we found malicious files created on your (gs) Grid-Service through the requests made to the aforementioned plugin:

[path omitted]/html/wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore/language/rbbr1i.php

To prevent further compromise and abuse of your (gs) Grid-Service, we’ve been forced to disable web access to the domain [domain omitted]. We are waiting for additional information from the plugin developer before we can recommend a proper course of action to resolve this issue, but for now we would recommend deleting or evaluating each of the files listed above, and going through your site’s content to verify no additional malware has been added. We cannot re-enable this domain until you have completely removed this plugin and the malware injected.

Hope this helps.
