Lumiverse Dynamic

<h4>Lumiverse Security Watchdog Lite</h4>
Lumiverse Security Watchdog Lite is a lightweight yet powerful WordPress security plugin designed to detect early signs of compromise and reduce common attack surfaces. 
It runs automated background scans and alerts you when something suspicious is detected.
<h4>What it monitors</h4>
✔ Malware signatures (JS & PHP) 
Scans files for known malware patterns including injectors, obfuscated scripts, and common webshell families.
✔ Changed JavaScript files 
Detects modified <code>.js</code> files and analyzes them for suspicious behavior.
✔ Live Watch Mode 
Adds a lightweight metadata watcher for risky files. In Lite it tracks up to 3000 files and monitors uploads, plugins, themes, wp-content root and optional WordPress core paths.
✔ Plugins (new, deleted, suspicious) 
– Detects newly installed or removed plugins 
– Flags suspicious plugin names (e.g. random/hash-based folders) 
– Detects known fake/suspicious plugin families from the remote threat feed
✔ Core integrity checks 
– Flags important WordPress core files modified recently 
– Scans recent core PHP files for suspicious patterns
✔ Uploads directory scanning 
– Detects PHP files inside uploads (common malware location) 
– Detects executable files (php, phtml, phar, etc.)
✔ Admin user monitoring 
– Detects new admin accounts 
– Flags suspicious admin usernames or invalid emails
✔ Database backdoor indicators 
– Detects suspicious entries used by hidden admin exploits
<h4>Security Hardening Features</h4>
Reduce attack surface with one-click protections:
✔ Block XML-RPC 
✔ Disable application passwords 
✔ Disable file editing (wp-admin editor) 
✔ Disable plugin/theme installation & updates (optional) 
✔ Disable plugin/theme deletion 
✔ Hide login error messages 
✔ Login Guard with safe Lite defaults 
✔ Block pingbacks 
✔ Block user enumeration 
✔ Block comments sitewide 
✔ Block password reset for administrators
<h4>Traffic Shield Features</h4>
✔ Smart behavior-based IP traffic protection 
✔ Internal abuse scoring to identify abusive patterns without relying only on raw request counts 
✔ WooCommerce-aware cart/wishlist protection for common add-to-cart and add-to-wishlist floods 
✔ XML-RPC request blocking 
✔ Dynamic 404 flood protection 
✔ Suspicious query string blocking 
✔ Emergency Mode that activates only when high site-wide traffic pressure is combined with suspicious request pressure 
✔ Whitelisted IPs for trusted office, developer or administrator addresses 
✔ Live Monitor for current traffic and block status
<h4>Alerts & Monitoring</h4>
✔ Email notifications when threats are detected 
✔ Optional Live Watch email alerts 
✔ Optional auto-fix to disable user registration 
✔ Admin hygiene warnings (e.g. weak usernames)
<h4>Performance Focused</h4>
✔ Fast Mode: scan only recently modified files 
✔ Live Watch uses file metadata instead of full content hashing 
✔ Lightweight: no heavy server load 
✔ Designed to work alongside plugins like Wordfence
<h4>Important</h4>
This plugin does NOT automatically clean malware.
It is a detection and monitoring tool that helps you: 
– detect compromises early 
– understand what changed 
– take action before damage spreads

This plugin searches the files on your website, and the posts and comments tables of your database for anything suspicious. It also examines your list of active plugins for unusual filenames.
It does not remove anything. That is left to the user to do.

<h3>Interpreting the Results</h3>
It is likely that this scanner will find false positives (i.e. files which do not contain malicious code). However, it is best to err 
on the side of caution; if you are unsure then ask in the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/" rel="ugc">Support Forums</a>, 
download a fresh copy of a plugin, search the Internet for similar situations, et cetera. You should be most concerned if the scanner is: 
making matches around unknown external links; finding base64 encoded text in modified core files or the <code>wp-config.php</code> file; 
listing extra admin accounts; or finding content in posts which you did not put there.
Understanding the three different result levels:
<ul>
<li>Severe: results that are often strong indicators of a hack (though they are not definitive proof)</li>
<li>Warning: these results are more commonly found in innocent circumstances than Severe matches, but they should still be treated with caution</li>
<li>Note: lowest priority, showing results that are very commonly used in legitimate code or notifications about events such as skipped files</li>
</ul>
<h3>Help! I think I have been hacked!</h3>
Follow the guides from the Codex:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_My_site_was_hacked" rel="nofollow ugc">Codex: FAQ – My site was hacked</a></li>
<li><a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Hardening_WordPress" rel="nofollow ugc">Codex: Hardening WordPress</a></li>
</ul>
Ensure that you change all of your WordPress related passwords (site, FTP, MySQL, etc.). A regular backup routine 
(either manual or plugin powered) is extremely useful; if you ever find that your site has been hacked you can easily restore your site from 
a clean backup and fresh set of files and, of course, use a new set of passwords.
<h3>Updates</h3>
Updates to the plugin will be posted here, to <a href="http://ocaoimh.ie/" rel="nofollow ugc">Holy Shmoly!</a> and the <a href="http://ocaoimh.ie/exploit-scanner/" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress Exploit Scanner</a> page will always link to the newest version.
<h3>Other Languages</h3>
Unfortunately for people using WordPress versions for other locales some of the file hashes may be incorrect as some strings have to be hardcoded in their translated form. Here are some file hashes for WordPress in other languagues provided separately by other members of the community:
<ul>
<li><a href="http://wpbiz.jp/files/exploit-scanner-hashes/ja/" rel="nofollow ugc">Japanese</a> – thanks to Naoko</li>
<li><a href="http://talkpress.de/artikel/exploit-scanner-hash-deutsch-wordpress" rel="nofollow ugc">German</a> – thanks to Robert Wetzlmayr</li>
</ul>
The hash files should only be declaring an array called $filehashes and the majority of the hashes should still be the same.

Exploit Scanner

Works very well by pointing suspicious elements.

Useful and effective

Great plugin, but it's not well documented.

Anyways, it works on version 4.8.3 and theoretically any version as long as you generate (if you don't have) the hashes for your wordpress version; in my case I had to generate for 4.8.3 and it did a good job :)

Great security scan plugin but..

830 matches in a clean installation

Search the files and database of your WordPress install for signs that may indicate that it has fallen victim to malicious hackers.
