Wordfence Alerts after site is gone

Replies: 0

One of my client sites has been deleted from my server, and their DNS pointed to their new site. But, I continue to get Wordfence alerts (Woocommerce needs an upgrade).
How can I stop these since they are no longer relevant?

Thanks,

wfSchema/wfFileMods missing table fields

$

Replies: 0

So I just realized that a site is generating floods of this type of error when running wfScan:

WordPress database error Unknown column 'SHAC' in 'field list' for query INSERT INTO {prefix}_wfFileMods (filename, filenameMD5, knownFile, oldMD5, newMD5, SHAC) VALUES (

I had all WF tables deleted, and WordFence completely erased and reinstalled with version 6.3.14 to fix the previous “missing fields” database issues, so it should have been 100% clean. Even though it has since been updated to 6.3.16.

Checking into the problem, I think there are two questions/issues.

a) Field SHAC (and one additional for wfFileMods table) was supposedly a version 6.3.6 thing, so why would wfSchema.php for version 6.3.14 and now 6.3.16, which I assumed would carry/install the latest Schema, be missing these fields?

That would allow the ->createAll() to automatically create the necessary table fields from the beginning, rather than relying on later in runInstall() to have to “upgrade” the brand-new tables into correctness.

b) Because of a), the only path to getting correct table(s) is the table upgrades that should not have to happen on a fresh install.
However, runInstall() still has the older issue listed below, which makes it fail to upgrade or insert into certain tables correctly on some installs. Failing to use the right DB prefix if the main domain is no longer on blog-id=1.

Prefix issue:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/activity-report-email-bad-guys-have-left-the-internet/

also known as your internal incident “FB5929”.

Seems I have to manually fix up the tables and code again. 🙂

Hi,

I really only want to redirect access for certain countries from my contact page. Is it possible or is Wordfence only capable of blocking the login form and or whole site?

Thanks

500 Internal Server Error when editing post/page

Replies: 0

On a brand new install of WordFence, no changes from default, I’m getting “500 – Internal Server Error” when I attempt to edit any WordPress post or page.

Here are my php.ini settings.

max_input_vars = 3000
max_input_time = 120
max_execution_time = 120
memory_limit = 768M

Why would this deny post edit access right when the plugin is activated, with no further config changes?

Hi, after I installed your plugin, I cannot access my webpage as the webpage keeps displaying the following message

This site can’t be reached

The connection was reset.
Try:
Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
Running Windows Network Diagnostics
ERR_CONNECTION_RESET

So I have to go to the plugin folder and remove it there. After removing your plugin, every thing comes back to normal. By the way, I am using Wamp server. And the Wamp logo goes gray. Please help me. I want to use your plugin.

WordPress 4.8.1
Wordfence 6.3.16
PHP 5.6.31
Linux + Apache Web Server

Hello. I’ve read through the docs here and tried the solutions to no avail: https://docs.wordfence.com/en/My_scans_don't_finish._What_would_cause_that%3F. Specifically I have turned on debugging mode, tried “Start all scans remotely”, made sure memcached and opcache are not installed, verified that wp-admin is not being blocked (/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php is accessible and returns 0). Here is the content of the activity log:

I also noticed that on the Tools->Diagnostic page in the “Connecting back to this site” there is the following error:

Hi,

Two MU WordPress installs where I can activate the Wordfence firewall.

Both websites have correct php.ini and user.ini files where they have:
auto_prepend_file = ‘/home/username/public_html/wordfence-waf.php’

Both websites fail to have the firewall activated.

There is nothing in the error or debug logs.

Help appreciated.

Hi,

I have this plugin in the site:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-blocker/

When I have activated it and tried to log to the “/wp-login”, it gave me these errors:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multi-errors-after-activating-plugin/

Now I have returened to the plugin and reactivated it and got this error without the old errors:

Warning: get_class() expects parameter 1 to be object, boolean given in /wp-content/plugins/wordfence/lib/wordfenceClass.php on line 1976

I have no idea what is wrong.

p.s.

wordpress login page also shows an error:
“ERROR: Cookies are blocked due to unexpected output. For help, please see this documentation or try the support forums.”

CloudFlare IP Login

Hi,

I’m looking through my WordFence dashboard and noticed something really weird. Some of the successful logins with my username have come from Cloudflare IP addresses. For example, the 47s are my personal IP, 17s are Cloudflare, and the others are ‘hackers’.

I’m concern because the failed logins with my username suddenly stopped on 8/14/2017. My password is pretty tough (20+ characters mixed with numeric, special character, letters, and so forth) and I change it every week or so. I ran a scan in WordFence and Sucuri. It indicates my site is clean.

Is there anyway to reveal the actual Cloudflare IP address in Wordfence?

How do I whitelist a webhook?

I am sending contact information from my email service (Activce Campaign) into my WordPress site using a webhook.

The webhook pass in contact data using this URL:

https://MyWebsite.com/?trigger=custom-trigger-ABC&key=key-code-123

But the webhook gets blocked by WordFence each time. How do I stop this from happening? I cannot simply whitelist the IP address, because the IP from which the webhook is sent changes each time.

P.S. It’s not the WAF which is blocking the webhook. When the WordFence plugin is active but has the WAF feature disabled, the webhook still doesn’t work. The only time the webhook works is when the WordFence plugin is completely disabled.
