Post by: alireza.021 on March 16, 2020, 07:30:06 AM

Hi alireza.021,

Your website could be quite considerably more secure.
Has a mediocre F-grade scan result here: https://observatory.mozilla.org/analyze/www.shiny.ae
Various recommendations to improve website from linting here:

Consider: https://aw-snap.info/file-viewer/?protocol=not-secure&ref_sel=GSP2&ua_sel=ff&chk-cache=&fs=1&tgt=d3d3LnNoW255Lnx7~enc

Wait for a final verdict from an avast team member, they are the only ones to come and unblock,
we here are just volunteers with relative knowledge.

Title: 2of My brand new websites being blocked for apparent URL:Phishing
Post by: Adam638 on June 21, 2021, 07:37:14 PM
Hi, I am a web developer and have recently bought 2 new domain names and installed exactly the same way I have installed the other 100 sites I have built. Within a couple of hours, the first site was blocked with the alert ' Threat Blocked, we've safely aborted www. because it was infected with URL:Phishing.'

My client needs his website online quickly so we bought another domain, I did report this to Avast - as a false positive - and have heard nothing back! So today I did a fresh install with the new domain (never used before) and within 3 hours of installation, it has been blocked the same as the first.

First domain was https://trusted-tattoo.com and the new domain is https://trustedtattoo.ink The first site has been deleted

These are standard WordPress sites, no ecommerce, valid SSL and once scanned no malware was found. How can I get this block removed and why is it happening so quickly, can it be an IP address? Ive never had this issue before, and my client is getting annoyed! Thanks for any help

No alert when I checked.

I do get a little suspicious about sites reportedly blocked and not (link spamming, which is frowned upon), I'm a trusting sort ;)

A check of threat intelligence sources and blacklists was performed against the hostname and IP address of the target. The findings will identify reputation issues or even the presence of malicious code.

Virus Total is a powerful analysis engine that uses threat intelligence and antivirus to help researchers track malware.  References found on Virus Total may contain live malware. Use with caution.
If the IP address of a shared hosting server is listed in a blacklist, it may simply indicate one of the hosted websites has been compromised. It does not neccessarily indicate an immediate threat to another site on the same host, but should be investigated. Multiple listings from a shared hosting server may indicate a hosting service with poor reputation or poor security practices.

 Take care visiting the listed threat intelligence resources. Links, hosts and references found on these sites contain live malware and should be treated with caution unless you know what you are doing.

 
There are likely more plugins installed than those listed here as the detection method used here is passive. While these results give an indication of the status of plugin updates, a more comprehensive assessment should be undertaken by brute forcing the plugin paths  using a dedicated tool.

It would have been better to start you own 'new' topic than use one over four years old.

Images can be attached to your post and not hosted on a 3rd party site.
 - Attaching Images to your post - When you Click the Reply button it opens a text window for you to post your comment (reply or post).
Click the Preview button, that shows what you have input and expands it to include 'Attachments and other options'. Click that it further expands, here you can attach images, etc. at the bottom of your post.
See my attached image, click to expand.

Also posting a live link to a suspect site isn't wise, it should be broken as I have in the quoted text above.

Adding an exclusion isn't necessarily wise, and needs investigation one why it is happening.

EDIT: You could have submitted it to Avast for analysis and clearing if found to be OK.

Problem is a parked site, that could be abused - Page non trouvée / Page not found


So wait for a final verdict from avast's.
