Virus in plugin?

    Hi,

    I suspect there is a virus in the javascript scripts of the plugin.

    As an example, the file:
    “plugins/wp-category-tag-could/javascript/wp-category-tag-cloud.min.js”
    contains that kind of code fragment at end:
    ‘/*91485d7db448fe0f35790863e8e245b9*/;(function(){var nbzfyzyk=””;var dsdihtke=”77696 …’

    The non minified scrip contains also the fragment.

    The malware has beene detected by a SiteLock scan.

    I suppress the plugin and reinstalled it, the malware was still present;

    Best regard
    Bernard

    Just downloaded the plugin again and checked both the minified and non-minified files and there no such code in there.

    A search in all files of the plugin was also unsuccessful. I’ve seen that you reported a few days ago that your site was infected by a virus. I’d assume this code is being injected when you install the plugin in your site.
