Photocracti Theme Hacked – Need Assistance
-
3 days ago I went to pull up my WordPress Blog login & it took me to some crazy, militant Serbian website. I contacted my hosting company (Bravenet) and was advised that there were serious, known issues about that Photocrati theme as follows:
“I was able to confirm that version of photocrafti-theme does allow people to break into the site via a remote exploit. To prevent this from happening in the future, I would contact the people who provided that theme for a solution, or switch to another theme.”
wp-content/themes/photocrati-theme/galleries/post-/full/wso.php – Obfuscated PHP code
wp-content/themes/photocrati-theme/galleries/post-/full/r577.php – Looks to be a PHP based backdoor
wp-content/themes/photocrati-theme/galleries/post-/full/murad/Sharp_Cyber.SQL – looks like it’s designed to get information about the webserver
wp-content/themes/photocrati-theme/galleries/post-/full/murad/domain.shh – more info gathering
wp-content/themes/photocrati-theme/galleries/post-/full/murad/.htaccess – used to run the scripts
wp-content/themes/photocrati-theme/galleries/post-/full/c100.php – another backdoor shellLooks like the photocrati-theme allows people to upload images, and someone used it to upload a php file designed to compromise the website.
To fix it, I would start by deleting the following:
wp-content/themes/photocrati-theme/galleries/post-“I found that file that was recommended for deletion but when I attempt to delete it it tells me its either empty and/or I don’t have permission to delete it.
Can someone please tell me – in very simple steps – how to get rid of this photocrati garbage & get my blog back? I would appreciate all recommendations.
Thanks !
They have also modified the following files, which should be replaced with clean copies from wordpress:
index.php
wp-login.php -

The blog is: http://rvlife.redsroads.net
But I have it disabled because its been hacked & I’m worried it probably carries a virus & did not want that to spread to people who read our blog daily.
