Hi @matthall-1, thanks for reaching out!
The malware detection signature related to this blog post was released for all Wordfence product levels by July 23rd, so I would expect your sites to have been protected by last week. I would just double-check that you don’t have any issues reported when trying to manually refresh rules using the button in Wordfence > All Options > Advanced Firewall Options > Rules. Issues with that or general file reading/writing could prevent new rules and signatures from coming through.
If plugin functionality seems fine, Wordfence is on the latest version, and something seems to have still made it through, please send files or a brief report to samples @ wordfence . com containing a little background information so our team can take a look.
Many thanks,
Peter.
Thanks, @wfpeter
I appreciate the response and tip. The rules seem to be coming through fine. I just sent in an email to the team. Thank you!
Hi @matthall-1, no worries at all.
If the samples turn out to match the ones our scan should catch, it’s possible for the scan to be excluding certain directories, or that it’s been having trouble running/completing. In that case, it may assist us to see a diagnostic report from your site but won’t get ahead of myself.
Let us know if you need further assistance moving forward,
Peter.
