Is This A Wordpress Hack?

[zimok]

Was going over statcounter and noticed all this junk, anyone know what's going on? Is someone just brute forcing to find open/hidden directories?

That is kind of scary.... Some of these are just really random, fuckt**n? apexguitar? But I would say your analysis is correct, although it doesn't seem they are doing it well... Seems fishy, i'd be on alert if I were you.

What is this?

Check your file manager and remove the malicious application if available and take care of your logins.

What is this?

It's a statcounter screenshot. This is the part where you can see what parts of your website is being visited. All of these don't exist on my site, so for some reason someone is manually or automatically entering them and trying to load my site.

I'm just trying to figure out why.

Do you have any specific 404 plugin turned on?

mis-typein traffic from someone with an old link is my guess...or a very poor file directory scanner pen test bot.

Not very likely to be bad links, it's just a domain sales page with 15k~ visitors that's a year old.

pen test is my guess as well, guess it's time to change all my related passwords since I'm getting some hacka love.

Some spammer's spider hit your website, statcounter logs them as hit. Yea I know this sux.
