Sophos AV caught a malware attempt from wordfence

Hello, it would appear that something was able to leverage either php or wordfence code to attempt to open a piece of malware. We are researching how the code /tmp/phpfqaBVJ got there in the first place, bit it appears that wordfence attempted to open it.
Corrections and advice welcome.
Thanks,
Erik

If I log out or website times out I am locked out again. Is there a fix?

Cannot connect to Wordfence Central: CloudFlare blocking

Replies: 1

I’ve done all the actions required from the “Connecting your sites to Wordfence Central” found here: https://www.wordfence.com/help/central/connect/#troubleshooting-connection-issues

To my knowledge the REST API is enabled on my website. I shouldn’t have any plugins that disable it. I’m still seeing the “We’ve detected CloudFlare blocking our requests to your site” under Connection Issues.

I was having issues with completing scans, but when I deactivated Auto-optimize it will complete the scan just fine. Doesn’t fix this issue though, even after purging Cloudflare cache.

I’ve also properly set the “CF-Connecting-IP” configuration. I’m at my wits end as to what could be causing the error, but from what I see in prior posts with this same issue there is something that might be blocking it on the website itself? Please advise, I’ll be happy to send diagnostics test.

[BUG] Database error when installing plugin

I recommend all your developer to turn on the WP_DEBUG and install debug plugin like ‘query monitor’ so you can monitor warning and error that is hidden from user.

When installing plugin I get database error:

Hi,

It looks like most of the traffic appears to be coming from BOTS.

Thing is, I can see that from the log that in fact, they are humans.

But the “Live Traffic” shows the symbol of X > Bot, not “Human”?

Any ideas why this is, please?

Plugin appears to be abandoned

Wordfence has reported a medium security risk; that one of the few plugins on my site has apparently been abandoned, stating the last update was two years ago. Yet, when I clicked to update the plugin, the result was that the plugin is current.

A visit to the plugin author’s site confirmed that the plugin is current, but prior to visiting the author’s site, I was unable to find the plugin listed in the WordPress plugin repository.

What does all of this mean, please?

Thanks.

Hi,

I’m getting the following error in nginx errors logs:

2021/05/25 19:38:22 [error] 43013#43013: *1951552 FastCGI sent in stderr: “PHP message: WordPress database error Field ‘attackLogTime’ doesn’t have a default value for query INSERT INTO{blanked}_wfhits(ctime,statusCode,isGoogle,IP,userID,URL,referer,UA,jsRun,action,id) VALUES (‘1621967899.091028’, ‘200’, ‘0’, ‘\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0{blanked}’, ‘282’, ‘{blanked}/xmlrpc.php’, ”, ‘Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0’, ”, ‘loginFailValidUsername’, ‘0’) made by wfModel::insert” while reading upstream, client: {blanked}, server: {blanked}, request: “POST /xmlrpc.php HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “fastcgi://unix:/var/run/php/php-fpm.sock:”, host: “{blanked}”

I thought this may have occurred after we migrate the entire database to a new server, so I’ve just:
1) Took a backup of the Wordfence settings.
2) Enabled the delete tables on disable.
3) Update .user.ini to stop loading wordfence.
4) Disabled the plugin.
5) Delete the plugin.
6) Confirmed the tables were removed (all except the 2fa ones).
7) Re-installed Wordfence.
8) Import the backed up settings.
9) Update .user.ini to load it again.

The tables were recreate and it’s correct ‘attackLogTime’ (and ‘ctime’) still have no default value. The above INSERT is still erroring because of the ‘attackLogTime’.

Any chance this can be looked at? It’s making it hard tracking down other real errors.
Cheers,

Hi,
I am getting a result found of a modified plugin file per wordfence. When I select “repair” and then on the following screen click on “Click here to download a backup copy of this file now” I just get directed to the public home page for the website (even though the url mentions download etc.) How do I do this? it isn’t clear at all and I don’t know of the click through address is even right? As it isn’t taking me to download the plugin file.
Thank you

I have just paid for 3 years subscription but when I try to add the url of my website (https://msh-electronics.com) the message “Unable to resolve domain redirects” appear.

I am shocked that after paying 237.6 USD to a security company, one cannot write privately to report problems and ask for assistance but the only way to contact Wordfence is to have to do so publicly.
This seems absurd to me!
I am shocked that after paying 237.6 WordFence is not working because it is unable to reach and access the site through the Varnish cache server.
We are off to a very bad start!
I ask for a total refund!

On the dashboard, when wordfence correctly notifies of a plugin update available,

Not a big deal but concerned it might affect other functions as well
