Security Researcher Detected: You might have ended up here because your site vulnerability scanner found something interesting. Hi! I'm a security engineer and I'm having a good time interacting with the people and bots that are interested in information security.
You will hopefully find this site is well-secured and I'm not interested in being hacked. I'm interested in learning about how people try to hack me, though.
What is this endpoint?
wp-content/plugins/hellopress/wp_filemanager.php
A WordPress file-manager script dropped by malware or an abandoned/vulnerable plugin.
What an attacker could do
File-manager scripts let an attacker browse, upload, and execute files on the server, typically used to plant or re-plant a web shell after initial compromise.
How to defend it
Audit wp-content/plugins for unknown files, remove abandoned plugins, block PHP execution in upload paths, and scan with a malware/integrity tool.
