If you are talking about zombie web pages, unless they have a CMS with a common security breach, it's going to be quite complex
If you are talking about social media, unless you can fetch the owner email, there is no option to claim a zombie page except for YT AFAIK

I'm not really into that, but you can find interesting things without harming too much. For example, recently I found out a relatively good reputed forum within one of my niches using a very old version of SMF (some 1.X branch).
I was willing to do something about it, but I found there was a exploit to bypass the nofollow rules, so I could easily post some random threads with some d0follow links. This is the beauty of outdated CMS.

At this point I feel it's too generic the question.
If you talk about your own zombie pages/infected pages, is the same but the other way around. First update your systems, if using a CMS like WP check for tools that help you audit a little bit like Sucuri, Patchstack or Wordfence.
If you think you have zombie pages is because you have found something that makes you suspicious about it, some evidence.
With that evidence, you should look be able to look for footprints, like a URL that is used to redirect or to link.
If you know how to use SQL queries you should be able to detect the infected content with JS or just outbound linking by querying a match of that footprint.
Otherwise, if there is a CMS like WP again, there are tools like Better Search Replace that help you find this with a simple interface.

Ok ! I don't know much about zombie pages, I thought own website's zombie page and web zombie page are same.
Anyways thanks for the suggestion man.
