Cleantalk Failed files Issue

[Jane]

Hi I receive this message daily from Cleantalk for the below files.
/wp-content/plugins/gp-premium/elements/class-hooks.php
/wp-content/plugins/gp-premium/hooks/functions/hooks.php

I did once accept them but they keep re-appearing. ANy suggestions please.
Many thanks

Hi there,

are you using any GP Hook Elements on the site?

Hi not that I am aware of? This happens on every install I perform on all my websites, unless it is something that happens my default? Many thanks

Hi there,

Is that the specific message you’re getting? Where is it displaying? Any chance you can show us a screenshot?

Let me know 🙂

Ah ok – those are false positives.

In some cases, hackers can inject eval() functions into your site, which is why security plugins scan for it.

In this case, it’s perfectly safe 🙂

Hi Tom
Me again. The files that we Approve keep coming back and this time we have a ‘search.form’ that has come back as dangerous. Any ideas?
Screenprint link below:

Many thanks Jane

The hook files should be fine – the eval() function in there is necessary and not malicious.

searchform.php should not have eval() code in it – that one may be a sign of a hack.

Thanks Tom. I removed the dodgy code and all seems fine 🙂

[Tom]
