 * Indeed its a strange issue.
 * The exact error in the google merchant store is “Invalid image encoding [image
   link]” this is due to it being the page URL rather than an image.

 * Ithemes security (hide login) had to be disabled before we could gain access 
   to WP backend and restore of the .htaccess file
 * Not sure what caused the .htaccess file to break in the process but something
   removed the default wordpress lines.

 * So we’ve given it another go and the results were as follows:
 * 1.Disabled DB caching & enabled object caching.
    2. 2000+ objects with about 
   150Mb new usage on memcache. Cleared all caches 3. 404 error pages on products,
   pages & blogs but not home page (Affects all subsites) 4. Reset permalinks on
   one subsite but backend started to time out. 5. Noticed some pages being accessible
   but then front & back end started to timeout on all sites. (steps 1-5 were over
   a 30/40 min period.) 6. Restarted apache + phpfpm 7. 404s on pages,products etc
   again on all subsites 8. slow loading & timeouts on front-backend again 9. left
   for 10~mins and total of 2500~ items in memcache with 200mbs mem used. Site still
   unusable and 404 pages on front end apart from homepage 10. disabled object caching
   via master.php & restart apache + php-fpm 11. 404 errors now on wordpress backend
   custom login pages & front end 12. full cache clear 13. reboot of services again
   as 404 issues not resolve 14. reboot of memcache server
 * Trying to now recover the site but no better to finding out what is causing it.

 * No worries, thank you for your support.
 * So when enabling object crashing eventually the whole multisite goes down not
   just the wordpress backend. This is where we start to see the issue before eventually
   the whole site does. A reboot of the server nor services brings it back and requires
   for it to be disabled within the master.php.
 * We’ve been using memcached tools to check the contents. This is how we know with
   the previous RDS config pagecache had some data chunks in there and could confirm
   DB caching works correctly now with the RDS changes.

 * Definitely misleading that pagecache would input some data into Memcache without
   the RDS config changes but DB cache wouldn’t. I suspect both weren’t working 
   despite this being the case.
 * Is there a way for W3TC to detect improper setup of Memcache ? E.G error if it
   detects cached data isn’t being read/written to Memache correctly.
 * DB caching & page caching seem to be working ok with Memache now just when switching
   to object caching we have this issue.
 * The Memcache server has lots of memory free so thats not a problem.

 * Update: we created the custom options group in AWS for the RDS instance and DB
   caching started to work properly with Memcache. Seems Pagecache worked without
   this from reviewing the Memcache data.
 * Objectcache when enabled (DB caching disabled), starting to create 1-2k objects
   in Memcache before the website eventually went down again. Could be resource 
   issues when objectcache is enabled and start a heavy load on the server but seems
   odd.

 * The prod and dev environment are exact copies of the multisites. For this test,
   the other difference was instead of RDS we used a local MySQL. Apart from that
   the load on the server from external users.
 * Is there anything we can do with W3TC to diagnose this ?

 * So we’ve copied the prod version of our multisite to a new dev site with no outbound
   internet access apart from cloudflare etc. It can be configured to use either
   object Memcached or disk cache without issue. It seems we cannot replicate the
   original issue within the Dev environment.
 * No errors in wp-log and nothing out of the ordinary with the W3TC debug on the
   dev site.
 * Tried again in the prod site and object caching seems fine with disk caching 
   but with high PHP CPU usage (up to 70% instead of 1-15%). This slows the site
   down in general. When switched to Memcache it starts to slow the site before 
   getting constant timeouts. Restart of the wordpress services and it starts up
   and will only serve timeouts within the access logs. Only way to stop it is to
   disabled object caching within the master.php and restart the wp services again.
 * Have tried using ‘wp cache flush’ and clearing the Memcache directly but still
   wont work with Object cache + Memcache enabled.

 * Yes it worked for 4-6 months without issue before causing performance issues 
   and we switched to DB disk caching. When re-enabling it with object Memcaching,
   it breaks the wordpress management interface.
 * With the pro purge log, can the cache be purged without access to the WP management
   interface? E.G can it be triggered via the wp command line.
 * I’ll get the WP debug setup on our test environment and see if this shows any
   useful info and report back.

 * No worries, we appreciate your support.
 * So before we setup a Memcached server, we had issues with PHP performance on 
   the EC2 instance caused by object caching leading to hanging and timeouts. This
   lead to the same behaviour as we had now and disk DB caching was used instead.
 * As the wordpress backend crashed pretty quickly once object caching is enabled,
   is there a way to view the W3TC logs with debug mode enable if wordpress is inaccessible?

   When we disable DB caching, we clear the cache before enabling the Objecting 
   caching.

 * So for anyone affected by this I would do the following:
 * 1. Ensure you have a WAF in place such as Wordfence or similar
    2. Remove the
   vulnerable pluging that the attacker is trying to exploit “TI WooCommerce Wishlist’–
   This needs to be deleted not just disabled 3. Delete the attackers user account
   4. Block the IP of the attacker in your WAF (Be aware they will try again from
   different IPs) 5. Setup looking with WP-Logger so you have audit any of the sites
   activities 6. Setup a captcha as a measure to stop automated orders
 * You can also block a lot of malicious traffic by updating your .HTAccess files
   to stop bots/and scripting tools from making requests to the web server.
