I'm going to chime in here quickly. The importbuddy.php file is a well-known file that is run when you are restoring a BackupBuddy backup. It's clean, and there is a process in place to delete the file once the site has been restored.
I think I'm having an issue right now restoring, as WordFence is blocking the restore process and blocking me from completing Step 3 (Database Settings) and throwing the following error:
ERROR #839983: Failure parsing returned server data. See Status Log for more details. Details: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0. Response: `<br />
<b>Warning</b>: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in <b>Unknown</b> on line <b>0</b><br />

<b>Fatal error</b>: Unknown: Failed opening required '/home/SITE/public_html/wordfence-waf.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in <b>Unknown</b> on line <b>0</b><br />`.

steve49589 on "[Plugin: Wordfence Security] Issue with restoring site using iThemes BackupBuddy - importbuddy.php"
There is an issue with trying to restore a backup from BackupBuddy. When restoring a website, the process includes creating a new database, uploading a ZIP file )with all files, WP core, plugins, images and the database) AND uploading a file called importbuddy.php to the root directory of the site. Usually I do this when I'm migrating a site to a new host, or restoring a site to a development environment for testing.
Once uploaded, you access http://websitename.whatever/importbuddy.php and it runs a PHP script that extracts the ZIP file, moves the database from the ZIP into the database, and migrates/updates the domain name as needed. The last step in the process after checking to see if the site is working properly is to clean up, removing importbuddy.php and some other files/folders.
The first time I tried the process, I received the following error:
I'm going to chime in here quickly. The importbuddy.php file is a well-known file that is run when you are restoring a BackupBuddy backup. It's clean, and there is a process in place to delete the file once the site has been restored.
I think I'm having an issue right now restoring, as WordFence is blocking the restore process and blocking me from completing Step 3 (Database Settings) and throwing the following error AFTER the first step (extracting all of the files) and BEFORE the step that populates the database.
ERROR #839983: Failure parsing returned server data. See Status Log for more details. Details:Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0. Response:

<b>Fatal error</b>: Unknown: Failed opening required '/home/SITE/public_html/wordfence-waf.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in <b>Unknown</b> on line <b>0</b>.
Next, I went to the original installation and went to Wordfence > Options > Scans to include section and I excluded the file importbuddy.php. I then created a new backup, started over with the new development destination and when trying to run importbuddy.php I got the following error immediately:
Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0
Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '/home/brownsto/public_html/wordfence-waf.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0This is a problem. If I am unable to run BackupBuddy and depend on the backup/restore process, I'll need to stop running Wordfence.
Suggestions?

Update: Put Wordfence into learning mode and tried the process all over again. No dice, same error.

Hello!
Just recently today, all the admins on our site started getting a blank popup page on almost every page on the frontend, nothing in the backend. I were able to track it to something called "colorbox". I tried to deactivate Wordfence and the popup stopped appearing.
our site is http://www.surfburken.se
This is how it looks: https://gyazo.com/ce54775dc1fe1696b3b3f4ae35ef7299

wfasa on "[Plugin: Wordfence Security] Fatal error: Allowed memory size with latest update"
Hello!
Version 6.1.8 is now available and it includes this fix: "Change wfConfig::set_ser to split large objects into multiple queries". We are hoping that this fix will sort out most issues with the prepare function in wp-db (wp-db.php lines 1246-1266in WordPress 4.5). The fix does require the PHP extension MySQLi. You can check if MySQLi is enabled on your site via the "Click to view your system's configuration in a new window" on Wordfence Diagnostics page. Just click that link and see if you find "MySQLi" on the list. If your host has disabled php_info, please contact your host to find out if you have the extension MySQLi.
Please update to the latest version of Wordfence and let us know how you're doing after that!

NYG8OR on "[Plugin: Wordfence Security] Email Alerts With a Different LogIn Page"
I have been using Wordfence for awhile and the alerts on log in attempts and successful logins have been working great. I recently added All In One WP Security because I like the ability to change the login page as well as one or tow other functionality that WF does not yet have.
I noticed that after I have changed the log in page, I have stopped receiving the login alerts.
Is there a way to fix that or could it be something else between the two plug ins creating the issue?
Thanks.

I have multiple sites, with different themes and the bug is everywhere.

This problem is new. I could scan the site previously using Wordfence, without errors, but am getting a scan error now.
Today, I can still click on and view all the other sub parts of Wordfence in the WordPress Control panel (settings, firewall, options etc.), but when I click the "Scan" link, I get a white page with this message:
The requested URL was rejected. If you think this is an error, please contact the webmaster.

Hi
I'm using the latest version of Wordfence on my Wordpress install (self-hosted). Wordfence firewall is active.
My cloudflare is active and everything seems to be working normally. But I get an error in Wordfence diagnostics.
In WF settings, I selected CF-Connecting IP" but under Wordfence - Diagnostics, I get this error:

I also have the Cloudflare plugin active.
I asked Cloudflare but they don't have an answer, see CF support thread here:

WFMattR on "[Plugin: Wordfence Security] Issue with restoring site using iThemes BackupBuddy - importbuddy.php"
Hi Steve,
Sorry about the trouble -- this is from the firewall's Extended Protection trying to load its file, but since the site has been moved, the file is not in its original location.
Are you able to edit the site's .htaccess or .user.ini file at that point in the installation? Depending on the server's configuration, one of these two files has a line that says "auto_prepend_file" -- and once that file exists, the firewall tries to load on the next request. Commenting out or removing that line should allow the installation process to continue.
We have details on editing these files manually here:
How can I remove the firewall setup manually?
If you're backing up the site manually, you can remove the firewall's auto_prepend_file line before the backup, but we'll look into a solution for preventing issues with automatic backups in this case as well.
