How To Discover Malicious Code In Free And Nulled Scripts by chinavs9ja(m): 7:04am On Mar 25, 2019
In addition to the official WordPress repository, hundreds and thousands of websites offer free plugins and extensions from WordPress. The problem is that you can not always trust them.
Yes, most of the malicious code are hard-to-find in the script.
Before I talk on the solution, we will discuss the reason for it.

That's why they add their personal codes.


To access your blog or website at any time.

To encrypt link and transfer your blog to spam links

To add their ads and banners to your website.

Or simply to bring down your website when the time called for it.

Not only free designs and add-ons, but also high-quality and features downloaded from warez and torrents can be infected with these malicious code. Not to talk about this noble forum where many webmasters are selling nulled script at a cheaper price. And also, people are buying without considering the effect in the long run. Obviously, no matter the risk, people will continue to use the nulled script. We all love something free! That is why Chinawapz Digital Agency is here for all webmasters to detect any nulled script having a virus or hidden links. Well, relax and read how you can know if a nulled script is having a virus or not. If you know this, you will keep enjoying your free script just like a rat escaping a trap. Lol

1. Check for Virus or Trojan in the script
I discovered a website where you can scan your nulled script for a virus. Visit virustotal.com and upload the zip file. And scan, if there is a red signal it means the file is infected.

2. Check for hidden code in your plugin
Many are enjoying nulled plugin. Yet, unknowingly that there is a hidden link embedded inside the plugin. However, to check for this you can install Exploit scanner plugin from Wordpress repository. This will help you discover if there are any infected plugins.

3. Check for Theme authenticity
Seeing a backlink in a nulled theme is very common. But you can easily find those exploited themes by the plugin called Theme Authenticity Checker (TAC).

Install the plugin and go to Dashboard >> Appearance >> TAC

You can see the list of themes installed with their authenticity result.It will give a warning if any encrypted links are found in a theme.
