I’m facing the fatal error while scanning my website “/var/www/html/wp-includes/Requests/src/Transport/Curl.php on line 554”. I tried to increase the memory limit but its also not working in my case. Please share the solution.
Thank you.

Sometimes an error in Curl.php comes after another error or notice although I can’t find this specific line number coming up before that might point me in the direction of what the previous error might be.
Could you please make sure Wordfence is up-to-date and then do the following for me?:
Go to the Wordfence > Tools > Diagnostics page
In the “Debugging Options” section check the circle “Enable debugging mode”
Click to “Save Changes”.
CANCEL any current scan and start a NEW scan
Copy the last 20 lines or so from the Log (click the “Show Log” link) of the activity log once the scan finishes and paste them in this post.
The error you’re seeing of Allowed memory size of x bytes exhausted...is almost always memory exhaustion occurring outside of PHP somewhere on the server. There’s a chance that Wordfence’s scan, saving settings, or other Live Traffic operations triggered the error due to requiring some memory but it’s not the root cause from our tests with other customers.
Your operating system/web server log files will likely show if memory is being exhausted somewhere outside of PHP and why. This is usually a job for your hosting company’s support channels as they have access to those logs, can diagnose the source and potentially resolve the problem. Shared servers especially can experience this problem, but that’s just a guess and may not be the case here.
If your website is also redirecting elsewhere, you may be affected by malware. There are naturally other attack vectors outside of WordPress that we don’t control like database passwords, cPanel access and FTP credentials so as a rule, any time I think someone’s site has been compromised I also tell them to update their passwords for their hosting control panel, FTP, WordPress admin users, and database. Make sure to do this.
Additionally you might find the WordPress Malware Removal section in our free Learning Center helpful. We provide a site cleaning service should you need assistance, as do other companies.
I hope that helps you out, Peter.
