If you’re using an outdated TagDiv themes like Newspaper or Newsmag and you suspect that your website might be infected, you can verify through our free SiteCheck scanner. Update the themes to patch the vulnerability, then inspect your blog for suspicious users. We also advise that you test your settings, change your passwords, and scan your server for any backdoors that may have been left behind.

Also, worth checking the changelog for each new version of Newsmag to check what has been patched, including any security fix.

Much like updating WordPress to fix security flaw in core WP code.

But, check your site with the Securi free scanner, and that way you will know you’re okay 🙂
