SQL cleanup String.fromCharCode

Injecting WordPress posts with String.fromCharCode malicious script is a widespread technique these days.
Here’s an example: https://pastebin.com/KkV6jSyE

To learn more about the injected script, you can use this decoder:

According to publicwww stats, there are aprox. 2997 pages infected.
Until 9/9/2020, aprox. 102,000 Google search results are corrupted by fromCharCode injections.

Here are some cleanup alternatives:

* Note: before attempting to fix your database, make sure you have safe backup. Double check if the exported database is readable.

#1
Clean SQL dump locally
If .sql file size is small, a cleanup can be performed locally, using text editors like Notepad++ or dnGrep ( search and replace tool ).

#2
Run SQL query
UPDATE wp_posts SET post_content = REGEXP_REPLACE(post_content, '<script(.*?)>((.|\n)*?)<\/script>', '');

This will work if REGEXP_REPLACE is available and table prefix is correct. Also any legitimate “” inside “wp_posts” will be wiped out.

#3
Better Search Replace
If your website is powered by WordPress, this plugin will work just fine.
