Shield Security Tools

WordPress PHP Malware Checker Tool

Upload a PHP file for a fast MAL{ai} malware classification.

Check PHP code

Upload a single PHP-family file and MAL{ai} will classify it as clean, suspicious, malware, or inconclusive.

  • Accepted file types: PHP, PHP5, PHP7, and PHTML.
  • Maximum upload size: 32MB.
  • Remove secrets, customer data, and identifying comments before uploading.

Before you upload

A fast second opinion for suspicious PHP.

MAL{ai} is designed to detect malicious PHP without relying only on signatures. It is useful for triage, but sensitive code should be cleaned before upload and prediction results should be reviewed carefully.

Clean

Likely clean

No malicious PHP pattern was detected.

Review

Suspicious

The code resembles risky patterns and should be manually reviewed.

Malware

Likely malware

The code matches malicious behavior and should not be trusted.

Safety guidance

  • Use this as a fast second opinion, not as your only review step.
  • Predicted results are useful signals, but confirmed results carry more weight.
  • Do not upload private client code until sensitive data has been removed.
