    I installed the Sucuri plugin on multisite and inserted the API key. When waiting for the scan it shows the error : SUCURI: SiteCheck error: Unable to properly scan your site. Site returning error: HTTP/1.1 508 Loop Detected

    HTTP/1.1 508 Loop Detected

    As the error says, when the malware scanner tried to connect with your website it got redirected to another location, and this new location redirected the scanner to the original URL again, and this URL to the new location, and so on, forever. This is called an “Infinite Loop” [1] and the only way to prevent it is to stop the execution after a few redirections.

    The scanner stopped trying to scan your website after 20+ redirections before giving up. Please fix your website to remove the redundant redirection rules before requesting a fresh malware scan.
