Wordpress wp-load.php automatically goes 0 btytes within every 2-3 minutes

I saw my website was showing 500 internal server error. I tried to debug and found wp-load.php was 0 bytes then I replace with new wp-load.php. Now my website working fine. Later, I saw every 2-3 minutes my wp-load.php goes to 0 bytes.

Please resolve

The site has been compromised. I had a similar issue with a client website where some of their WP Core files kept getting overrwitten and injected with malicious code. Also the file permissions kept getting set to read only so you couldn't edit the file. You could delete it and upload a legit copy, only to have it overwritten the moment you reloaded the website. Look for a script/file outside the webroot (www/public_html) that is executable.

It is not a wordpress update error because although I replace everything except the wp-content folder and wp-config after 3 minutes, it is deleted again. What happens to this theme or plugin they use to see if we have the error in common theme: plox builder: elementor cache: litespeed cache

no es un error de actualización de wordpress porque aunque sustituyo todo menos la carpeta wp-content y wp-config a los 3 minutos se borra nuevamente .. a los que le pasa esto que tema o plugin usan a ver si tenemos en común el error tema: plox contructor: elementor caché: caché litespeed

Its a problem of automatic Wordpress update. Only go to your FTP and find files with 0 bytes, overwrithe these with new WordPress installation from the website.

Your site probably has been hacked. The attacker is trying to change your wp-load.php via wp-load.php?pubkey=xxxx Take care of your security.
