One of the most common attacks on WordPress is the XML-RPC attack. In this tutorial, we&#8217;ll learn what XML-RPC is and how to block XML-RPC attacks.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><strong>What is XML-RPC attack?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>XML-RPC is a remote procedure call that uses XML for encoding and HTTP for transport. WordPress is using XML-RPC for information exchange between clients on the network.<br \/>\nUsing this functionality, the attacker can send thousands of brute-force attacks against your WordPress site in a very short time period.<br \/>\nThe attacker will try to log in using the xmlrpc.php script with random username\/password combinations many times per minute, thus affecting the brute-force attack on your WordPress site.<br \/>\nAnother problem is that xmlrpc.php also allows the attacker to guess hundreds of password combinations using only several HTTP requests. This would also lead to a very high database load.<br \/>\nThis could also bring your site down, displaying the &#8220;Error establishing database connection&#8221; error.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to block XML-RPC attack?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There are several ways to block XML-RPC attacks.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Install one of many WordPress plugins that deal with XML-RPC<\/h3>\n<p>You can find a lot of plugins that do that. Like the ones on <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/tags\/xmlrpc\/\">this page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Block all xmlrpc.php requests in WordPress<\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;re running on an Apache web server, you can do that by inserting the following code in the .htaccess file in your WordPress website&#8217;s document root:<\/p>\n<p><code>&lt; Files xmlrpc.php &gt;<br \/>\norder deny,allow<br \/>\ndeny from all<br \/>\n&lt; \/Files &gt;<\/code><\/p>\n<h3>3. Block xmlrpc.php in the Apache\/Nginx configuration file<\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using Apache, do that by inserting the following code in your Apache configuration file:<\/p>\n<p><code>&lt; VirtualHost &gt;<br \/>\n----------<br \/>\n&lt; files xmlrpc.php &gt;<br \/>\norder allow,deny<br \/>\ndeny from all<br \/>\n&lt; \/files &gt;<br \/>\n&lt; \/VirtualHost &gt;<\/code><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using Nginx, block xmlrpc.php by inserting the following code in your Nginx configuration file:<\/p>\n<p><code>server {<br \/>\n-----------<br \/>\nlocation \/xmlrpc.php {<br \/>\ndeny all;<br \/>\n}<br \/>\n}<\/code><\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to search for and find XML-RPC attacks in different Linux distributions?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3>On CentOS with Apache:<\/h3>\n<p><code># grep xmlrpc \/var\/logs\/httpd\/access.log<\/code><\/p>\n<h3>On Ubuntu with Apache:<\/h3>\n<p><code># grep xmlrpc \/var\/logs\/apache2\/access.log<\/code><\/p>\n<h3>For a server with Nginx:<\/h3>\n<p><code># grep xmlrpc \/var\/logs\/nginx\/access.log<\/code><\/p>\n<h3>For a server with cPanel:<\/h3>\n<p><code># grep xmlrpc \/home\/username\/logs\/access.log<\/code><\/p>\n<p>If your WordPress site is under attack, the result of the previous commands would be similar to the following:<\/p>\n<pre>\u201cPOST \/xmlrpc.php HTTP\/1.0\u201d 200 674 \u201c-\u201d \u201cMozilla\/4.0 (compatible: MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0)\u201d<\/pre>\n<p>Of course, you don\u2019t have to do any of this if you use one of our <a href=\"https:\/\/linuxhostsupport.com\/server-security.html\">Server Security Patches and Updates Services<\/a>, in which case you can simply ask our expert Linux admins to secure WordPress and prevent XML-RPC attacks for you.
