help unwanted subpages
-
Last week I found out that someone had access to add a lot of subpages to my website http://www.dinkiro.dk – here we are talking about 3000+ subpages with various Chinese/Japanese characters.
The front page was accessible but the links to other pages were met with a “white” screen
At the same time they had closed access to wp-admin so I could not access the page via changes to the .htaccess file I can see
I got access via ftp to the website domain via Filezilla and could see there was a folder “Kasino” which contained various files that I clearly did not add.
Via my domain provider I rolled the website back to an earlier version and can see it now works as usual.
According to Google search control, however, now 55,000 subpages with various strange characters (e.g. https://dinkiro.dk/?i=75992115563000&channel=7e217c&from=brands.php%3Fid%3D1155630-13313%26name%3D%E3%83%9E%E3%82%A6%E3%83%B3%E3%83%86%E3%83%B3%E3%83%90%E3%82%A4%E3%82%AF%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%BC%E3%82%AF%E3%82%AB%E3%83%BC%E3%83%9C%E3%83%B3%E3%83%95%E3%82%A1%E3%82%A4%E3%83%90%E3%83%BC%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%BC%E3%82%AF%E3%82%B3%E3%83%BC%E3%83%B3%E3%83%AA%E3%82%B8%E3%83%83%E3%83%89%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%BC%E3%82%AF%E8%87%AA%E8%BB%A2%E8%BB%8A%20%E3%83%87%E3%82%A3%E3%82%B9%E3%82%AF%E3%83%96%E3%83%AC%E3%83%BC%E3%82%AD%E3%83%95%E3%82%A9%E3%83%BC%E3%82%AF%2C26 )Can’t see these pages in the wordpress control menu, but according to Google they exist and keep coming more. Have requested a new crawl which has found even more since the start (and after I should have closed access).
When I log in via ftp I don’t see anything atypical.
Have now activated 2FA so that the same thing can’t happen again.
Good ideas are welcomeThe page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

Hi @jjkiro
To speed up spam de-indexation, you can test the following .htaccess script. This way, you will discourage search engines from crawling the website unnecessarily.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^i=
RewriteRule ^ - [G,L]Assuming you don’t have any active “channel” strings inside the legitimate slugs, this may work also:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} channel [NC]
RewriteRule ^ - [G,L]
Monitor the website for a couple of days & check the index.php file integrity.
Best of luck,
Adrian
