Today I’m sharing something important that many website owners on shared hosting run into, and honestly, it can feel scary the first time it happens. You paste a simple piece of Adsterra ad code into your website—maybe in your header, footer, or theme file—and suddenly cPanel throws a big red warning: “BAILOUT malware detected.”
If you’ve never seen this before, it’s easy to think your site has actually been hacked or infected. But here’s the good news: in most cases, this alert is completely harmless. It’s not malware. It’s not an attack. It’s simply a false positive created by Imunify360, the security system used by most shared hosting companies.
In this guide, I’m breaking things down in the most human way possible—no technical jargon you don’t need, no confusing explanations. Just a clear, friendly walkthrough of why the error appears, what it really means, and exactly what you should do to fix it safely without stressing yourself out.
By the end, you’ll understand the problem completely, and you’ll know the only solution that actually works on shared hosting. So let’s get into it.
If you’re on cPanel shared hosting and suddenly see the terrifying message “BAILOUT malware detected” after inserting Adsterra ad code into your website, you’re not alone. This issue is surprisingly common, and in nearly all cases, it’s caused by Imunify360 mistakenly flagging Adsterra’s JavaScript as malware.
This HTML guide explains exactly:
- Why the warning happens
- Why Adsterra code triggers Imunify360
- Whether you can fix it yourself
- How to safely resolve the issue
Why You See the “BAILOUT Malware Detected” Error
cPanel hosting companies use security systems such as Imunify360 or ImunifyAV. These systems scan every file you edit or upload. When they detect patterns similar to malware — even if harmless — they stop the file from saving and display:
BAILOUT: Malware Detected
Reason: Suspicious JavaScript Pattern
Adsterra’s JavaScript is usually obfuscated, meaning the code looks scrambled. This is intentional — it prevents modification, protects advertisers, and helps with anti-adblock techniques. But the problem is this: Obfuscation looks similar to malware to security scanners.
Can You Fix It Yourself on Shared Hosting?
Unfortunately, no. On shared hosting you cannot control Imunify360. You cannot:
- Whitelist files yourself
- Disable the malware scanner
- Bypass security rules
Every malware rule and whitelist is managed ONLY by your hosting provider’s administrator. This means: You have no direct control.

Conclusion
The “BAILOUT malware detected” message in cPanel with Imunify360 is almost always a false alarm triggered by Adsterra’s obfuscated JavaScript. You cannot fix this yourself if you're on shared hosting — the scanner runs at the server level. The only reliable and safe solution is contacting your hosting provider and asking them to whitelist the affected file.
