The website is redirecting due to malware in the theme. The website is not opening properly as well.
Hope to hear from you soon as we are facing a lot of trouble.

Hello,

You have malware on the website. Please update the theme to the latest version 12.6.5.
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 /
You could consider reinstalling the WordPress version, 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!

Hi,

You also need to check the files; if you have a strange file, kind of strange code in the files.

Thank you!

Weird solution, all indicates that your theme was vulnerable for this malware. I have two different sites, in different hosts and both got infected the same way.
