CodeIgniter Malware Removal
We help compromised CodeIgniter applications recover with framework-aware malware cleanup, vulnerability patching and practical hardening for PHP production environments, from actively maintained apps to legacy custom systems.
- 24–48 hour response window
- Framework-aware cleanup
- Post-cleanup hardening
Why choose KloudBoy CodeIgniter Malware Removal
CodeIgniter-aware cleanup
We inspect controllers, models, views, helpers, libraries and writable paths to remove malicious edits without breaking application flow.
PHP code sanitisation
Injected payloads, obfuscated backdoors, remote includes and unsafe file execution paths are removed after a code-level review.
Database and session cleanup
We review suspicious records, session abuse and injected content tied to spam, account misuse or malicious admin activity.
Routing and access hardening
URI handling, controller exposure, admin endpoints and request filtering are reviewed and tightened after the cleanup.
Upload security review
We verify file type validation, writable directories, execution paths and upload logic commonly abused in PHP framework attacks.
Config and server cleanup
Environment config, permissions, web server rules, cron behaviour and deployment leftovers are reviewed so the compromise path stays closed.

How it works
- 01
Audit the compromise
We trace the likely entry point, affected paths, writable directories and application behaviour before making cleanup changes.
- 02
Clean and contain
Malicious files, injected code, suspicious jobs and persistence mechanisms are removed with the framework structure preserved.
- 03
Patch weak points
We tighten routes, inputs, uploads, configuration and server behaviour so the same incident path is less likely to reopen.
- 04
Return to stable operation
You get a cleaned application, clear follow-up priorities and a stronger baseline for support or hosting continuity.
Questions, answered
Still have a question? Ask an engineer on WhatsApp.
What kinds of CodeIgniter compromises do you see?
Frequent issues include controller and URI abuse on exposed routes, unsafe file upload handlers, PHP files injected into writable or upload directories, session manipulation and weak auth flows, input filtering gaps leading to XSS or SQL abuse, and exposed configuration or insecure environment settings.
Do you work on older CodeIgniter applications?
Yes. The cleanup process is designed for older custom stacks and legacy PHP systems as well as actively maintained CodeIgniter apps.
Will the cleanup break my application?
We review controllers, models, views, helpers, libraries and writable paths so malicious edits are removed while the framework structure and application flow are preserved.
What do you harden afterwards?
Controller access and route validation, upload and file handling policies, input filtering and output escaping, session, auth and permissions, deployment and config management, and server-level controls that reduce repeat attacks.
How long does it take?
Turnaround targets are 48 hours for Basic Cleanup, 24 hours for Complete Security and 12 hours for Enterprise Response.
