FALSE POSITIVE: www.turchini.it
« on: November 26, 2022, 06:54:04 PM »
Hi, the following website "wxw.turchini.it" has been flagged as positive, but it's a false positive since the website is completely clean.
Using NOD32 or scanning local files with AVAST no one files results infected.

Please remove it from your block list.
Thanks

I know that, but the website is clear I am the developer.

There are also security issues reported here - https://en.internet.nl/site/turchini.it/1791436/
Whilst this may not be why Avast is alerting, but as the developer this is something you should address.

Also, please break active links to avoid accidental exposure to a suspect site - e.g. just turchini.it no http/www, etc.

Ordinarily - You should get a response in a day or two. This may be a little more given it is a weekend.

That said there is no guarantee that it would be cleared, given the above reports from other sites.

There are two issues here.

One is that your Word Press CMS is outdated, update WordPress a.s.a.p.
Then your site is linking to -bitninja.io, a known spam site:
https://www.virustotal.com/gui/domain/bitninja.io

Second is BitNinja server security constantly comes under attack,
re: https://www.scamaider.com/is-bitninja.io-safe-legal.html

But wait for a final report from avast team, as they are the only ones to come and unblock.

Those who have responded are avast users and not Avast employees 

We offer advice based on multiple security checking sites, it is up to you to act on that advise.  Your site based on what we have already pointed out is using outdated software which could be ripe for exploit.  As the website developer you should act on that to protect visitors.

I am going to update wordpress and all the other plugins, this is not a real problem since I had to restore the website to a very old version to remove all the threats.
But the point is that the website is not infected at all, so I'd like to inform AVAST community.
I am still waiting for AVAST to remove it from their black list.

Sorry, but from what has been said there are links to external sites that could also be responsible for the alerts so it isn't just what is on your site.

For instance the very first reply, the link to virustotal's analysis, in the Links element show external link to bitninja.io, which has also been mentioned in another post, Reply #7.

There is little point i us posting information if it isn't being followed up.

Avast will only remove it if it is confirmed to be a false positive.

Hi spacetime07,

As DavidR states you have to wait for avast team to eventually unblock your site (reconsideration).

When you perform a scan at https://hackertarget.com/wordpress-security-scan/ you can see the actual Word Press alerts for yourself. Prego. Here it was given clean: https://quttera.com/detailed_report/www.turchini.it

I don't know where to find a report about bitninja.io, I'd like to send one to my webserver because I can't do anything with bitninja since is a server feature.
Thanks
