One of the sites that we have got the notorious "Japanese hack" and didn't know what should I do anymore, here is what we did and by today we still see the spammy link appear from GSC:
After so many hours of deep diving and we still did not solve the issue, still saw new spammy links pop up everyday from the GSC, would love to know how to solve this issue by removing this SQL injection
- Originally we blocked all the "s=" or q= links from robots.txt so make sure that Google does not index these page, which worked
- We updated all the plugins we used, rank math, wordfence, even the WP version as well as all the plugins to the most updated version
- We also reinstalled the whole WP
- We also have all our developers checked our C panel folder to verify whether there are suspicious folders
- We also adding some security to the header. also upgraded the security level to the site
