Remediation

Wordfence CLI, as of version 3.0.1, comes with a new subcommand, wordfence remediate, to automatically repair known files belonging to a WordPress installation. Any file part of all versions of WordPress core, as well as all versions of plugins and themes available for download on wordpress.org can be automatically downloaded to restore a file infected with malware.
