malware/malicious code - default_updated_files.php

Post by imfsub12 » Wed Jun 14, 2023 8:57 pm

Hi i'm just trying to see if a file on my server is the ACTUAL file or a malware file

My hosting company ran a scan for me and this came back

/public_html/administrator/components/com_templates/tmpl/template/default_updated_files.php

it came back on 10 of my website on my cPanel WHM accounts

How can I verify if it the right one

thanks

review https://issues.joomla.org/tracker/joomla-cms/30529 that answers your question. Your winmerge is not the solution
