We conducted the investigation immediately and find out that the attack aimed specifically at Madara-based sites (because of the popular of Madara?). Here’s to clean your site and fix the issue:

  • Clean your site as guided in this article Then, remember to check all settings in the Theme Options > Advertising fields and remove the malicious code
