Hot Take:

Who knew WordPress would be the bell of the cyber ball with hackers treating it like a revolving door? If only hackers put as much effort into fixing bugs as they do planting backdoors, maybe the world would have fewer pop-up ads for Mandarin gambling sites. “Ultra SEO Processor” – sounds like a plugin that would get you more clicks, but not the kind you want! In a world of backdoors, four is definitely a crowd.

Key Points:

  • Over 1,000 WordPress sites hit with a malicious JavaScript code injecting four backdoors.
  • The backdoors are ingeniously designed to keep hackers coming back like unwelcome house guests.
  • Malware campaign also hijacked over 35,000 websites, redirecting users to Mandarin gambling sites.
  • Another report uncovers a threat actor targeting Magento websites with a JavaScript named Bablosoft JS.
  • Cybercriminals exploit known vulnerabilities to collect user data for nefarious purposes.
