Run WordPress? Take 10 seconds to check your site.

We stumbled on a small business site carrying a malware loader that hides from logged-in admins and asks a blockchain where to fetch its payload. Staff are skipped; every logged-out visitor's browser is sent the loader.

Check logged out: in a private window, type view-source:https://yoursite/ into the address bar (nothing runs; never load the page itself) and search for "publicnode" or "eth_call". A check while logged in can look clean.

How it works, how to clean up, and what we did not see:
