Due to outdated WordPress installations there have been reports of intended exploits on several websites, of which some we have managed to prevent but others may have been affected. This has been caused by outdated installations of WordPress, or outdated plugins that have been attacked by an automated script.

Restoring & Securing WordPress

In the cases we have reviewed it appears the index.php has been replaced, please upload a backup version of the WordPress index.php file to your directory from a backup, or download the latest version of WordPress 3.5.1 from here. Once you have completed the restoration of the index.php file, please ensure you login to your Administrator panel and update WordPress to 3.5.1, and ensure that all other plugins are up to date.
