Wow what a pain that must have been! I was pretty lucky and none of my 5 blogs were affected by this issue. Boy oh boy would that have been a disaster. By the way what was the goal of the hackers anyways? To add malicious code?

Thank you, this fixed an endless login loop I was experiencing halfway through the 2.6.5 update. I would login, it would then redirect me to the upgrade.php page for a split-second, then loop me back to login. You instructions to remove the active plugins was the fix. That allowed me to login and complete the database update, then manually re-activate plugins. Thanks again for posting!

Yep. Definitely the Maintenance Mode plugin. Just went through the same thing all over again with a different client site.

Stay far far away from the Maintenance Mode plugin!!
