Greetings,

I’ve recently been alerted by my security plugin about a security vulnerability in TagDiv Composer, which is detailed in this link: https://patchstack.com/database/vulnerability/td-composer/wordpress-tagdiv-composer-plugin-4-1-csrf-to-xss-vulnerability?_a_id=350

Please inform me once the issue has been resolved.

Hi,

The latest version of the theme 12.6.1 is safe -> https://patchstack.com/database/vulnerability/td-composer/wordpress-tagdiv-composer-plugin-4-1-csrf-to-xss-vulnerability.
This malware infects not only theme files but also WordPress files or other plugin files. This malware was not detected only in our theme but also in many other themes and plugins https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/massive-balada-injector-campaign-attacking-wordpress-sites-since-2017 / -> https://cybernews.com/security/wordpress-malware-epidemic-balada-injector/ -> https://www.geoedge.com/balda-injectors-2-0-evading-detection-gaining-persistence /
I can offer an alternative recommendation if you prefer that we don’t inspect your theme files. You could consider downgrading the WordPress version using the WP Downgrade plugin, reinstalling the theme, and checking for this plugin wp-zexit.php. It might be wise to inspect via FTP if it doesn’t appear in the WordPress -> Plugins. Additionally, using Wordfence to scan the website and remove unknown users would be prudent.

Thank you!
