Installation

Just clone this repo and move following files into your wordpress root directory:

• wp-rex.php
• wp-rex-shell

Usage

Web access

If there is no redirect (e.g. in the .htaccess-file or via malware) and you can reach your wordpress blog as usual:

• visit https://url-to-your-wordpress-blog.tld/wp-rex.php

Command line access

If you do not have web access to your blog, connect to your webspace/server via the command line / SSH and navigate to your wordpress root-directory. Then execute following command:

• ./wp-rex-detector DAYS (DAYS = check changed files for the last X days – default: 7)

To-Do

• all-in-one script via url-access
• removed “md5” from search expressions (thx to @felsqualle)
• new regex
• implemented correct modification changes to php-file
• add new regexes on a regular basis
• check for bad file permissions?
• more cool features (send me a feature request @foulenzer)
