DHDChris · 09-15-2010, 03:33 PM

I'm looking through a few WordPress themes for any malicious code. I'm on the lookout for encoded / encrypted code, and any obvious things (like changing emails, accessing unnecessary db records, sql injections). However, I'm not sure what subtle function calls to look for. I'm thoroughly familiar with programming and php, but not so much with the WordPress functions.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris
