The site is flagged by Google Safe Browsing

What Wordfence found

Wordfence queried Google Safe Browsing and the domain is on the list. This is an external verdict, independent of anything found on the server.

Why it matters

This is the most commercially damaging finding in the set. Chrome, Firefox and Safari all show a full-page interstitial, search results carry a warning, and traffic stops. It also usually means the compromise has been live long enough for Google to crawl it.

How to fix it

1. 1Find and remove the actual malware first — requesting a review before cleaning gets the request rejected and slows everything down.
2. 2Check Google Search Console under Security Issues for the specific URLs Google objected to.
3. 3Once genuinely clean, request a review through Search Console. Reviews typically take a day or two.
4. 4Tell the site owner before they hear it from a customer.

Findings that often appear with this one

• A file appears to be malicious Malware
• Malicious content was found in the database Malware

How WPSecureOps treats it

The connector reports this as checkGSB. WPSecureOps files it under Malware and bands it by the numeric severity Wordfence assigns, so findings of this kind from every site you manage arrive in one queue rather than one email per site. Titles and descriptions are stripped of HTML and the site's absolute path is replaced before anything leaves the server.
