Code Scanner
« on: November 15, 2016, 08:39:09 AM »
I get a newsletter from The Admin Zone and it contained this topic about Hostgator having bad security:

https://theadminzone.com/threads/hostgator-is-security-bad.142308/

In it, I found this "Malicious Code Scanner". You can use it to scan your website for malicious code if you suspect or have been hacked to help clean it.

Ran the scanner on my test site and got this:

I checked a few of your files but did not see anything out of the ordinary. I check the files with Notepad++ and RJ TextED but did not see anything stranger. Usually, you'll see very strange looking code if something is wrong. I'm not a coder by any stretch of the imagination but I couldn't see anything.

Since some of the files in question are TP and Bloc's themes you might want to ask him if he can see anything.

EDIT: I totally forgot about asking Illori...

I haven't run it on mine yet. Another thing to do is download them or if you already have the same files on your PC you can run a scan on them to see if anything turns up. It could be that the scanner is detecting the JS script portions of the files...

Not knowing how to analyze the code for bits that do not belong I'm not going to get to excited about this.  :oops!

You will "usually" see something very strange/different near the beginning or end of the file that doesn't look like the rest of the code. You may also see a link or redirect to another site that should not be there.

You can also download fresh files and mods...after deleting the old and re-install your files and mods. Just to be sure. I do it every so often just to kill any bad code if nothing else.

Haven't done it lately and need to do it soon. Another reason why I haven't redone my site site...just been putting it off. But I am backing everything up for all of my domains as I might be changing hosting soon.
