WP-CLI files checksum is a nice option.
from slickstack.
The checksum
feature in WP-CLI is really the best approach for this... so I'm not sure we could add any value there besides showing a warning in WP Admin if the (automated?) checksum fails or in the ss status
overview. Either way, SlickStack does delete a few core WP files like xmlrpc.php
so the checksum is always going to fail.

sudo -u "${SFTP_USER}" /usr/local/bin/wp --path=/var/www/html core verify-checksums
...has now been added to ss-install-wordpress-packages
Ref: https://github.com/littlebizzy/slickstack/blob/master/bash/ss-install-wordpress-packages.txt
This will let developers confirm that WP Core files are verified during installation... however, if files are corrupted at a later point, they won't know unless they run that command manually in WP-CLI for now. I think probably we should not automated this or include in the SlickStack dashboard or anything, since SlickStack purposefully deletes a few risky files like xmlrpc.php
from WordPress anyway which means the checksum will always fail anyways.
For now, this is an improvement at least. Probably good enough for our purposes, so I will close this for now.

Considering the potential issues with checksum integrity, a preferable approach might be to restrict access to those files via NGINX or via file permissions, rather than altering the checksum by deleting files.
This method avoids directly impacting the checksum verification process, which is critical for ensuring the integrity of WordPress Core files.
It's common practice for developers to perform checksum validations periodically (via a cron), especially before and after updates or when installing new plugins.
Tampering with the checksum by intentionally removing or modifying files could be seen as compromising security, given the importance of this verification in detecting unauthorized changes to the software.
