Hackers are using a new "blackhat" cybersecurity threat called EtherHiding to embed malicious code in WordPress websites.

This code retrieves partial payloads from blockchain contracts and deploys them within BSC smart contracts, which function as anonymous hosting platforms for malicious code.

EtherHiding is particularly insidious because it is adaptable and hackers can modify the code and change attack methods at their discretion.

To mitigate the threat, WordPress site owners should keep their sites up to date and use security plugins.

Beware of this kind of malwares!!
