Vulnerability to hackers

    My robo gallery plugin was hacked a couple of days ago.

    All the links to images were changed so that they redirected. The URLs were modified by changing the first part of every image gallery link URL to the URL of a javascript on an external site.

    I cleaned up all the links in the WP database quite fast, but my site has been blocked.

    Are you familiar with this vulnerability?

    I would highly appreciate any help in getting my site back online. I suspect that some of the robosoft php files were also hacked, but I don’t know where/how to check.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    We don’t have any problems with vulnerability. We didn’t have any complain for any security problem since gallery release date. Anyway, let’s try to figure out what’s happened on your website. Please post ticket here: https://robosoft.co/new-ticket with all details and we’ll try to help you to find solution.
    It’s could happened in your site was hacked in general. Our gallery use general permissions and all rules, the same which required by general WordPress installation.

    I think you’re right.

    The whole WP installation seems to have been hacked, along with PHP admin

    I’m still working on this with my hosting provider.

    I’ll let you know if I have any problems with the gallery when everything else is fixed
