Hi,
something concerning has appeared in Wordfence :
the following
enfold/js/mediaelement/mediaelement-and-player.js
and
enfold/js/mediaelement/mediaelementplayer.js
refer to the following url
http://www.delphiki.com/html5/playr
it describes it as critical and indicates the following :
This file contains a suspected malware URL listed on Google’s list of malware sites.
can you let me know how mediaelement-and-player.js and mediaelementplayer.js interact with that site
and
how to correct that situation ?
Can I delete both files without impact of the rest of the theme
or
is there a better solution to sort this out ?
with many thanks
John
Hi,
1) This script is now part of the wordpress core (wp3.6 – http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/04/08/audio-video-support-in-core/ ): http://mediaelementjs.com/ – tbh I doubt it contains malware.
2) can you let me know how mediaelement-and-player.js and mediaelementplayer.js interact with that site and how to correct that situation ?
No, because we’re not involved in the media player development.
3) Can I delete both files without impact of the rest of the theme?
You can delete the script files however this will probably break the html5 video support. As mentioned above mediaelement will be part of the WP core when 3.6 comes out – then we’ll probably remove the script files from enfold and load the player by using the WP core files…
Thx,
john
