"Probing for vulnerable code" alerts - Where are the /links on my site? How do I delete them?

I've got WP Cerber installed and it works great, especially after my site was hacked a couple months ago. When it got hacked, I saw a shed load of nonsense pages created like /garden-furniture/dwkwng-13135 etc. I don't really know how to get rid of these pages? For example, this shows that someone was trying to look for vulnerable code: www.sukimarketing.co.uk/Cake-Toppers-411839-Cupcakes-toppers-birthday-unicorn.shtm Excuse my total ignorance! I don't quite understand how it works, but do these pages actually exist in my site somehow? How can I get rid of them? There's SO many.

1. If you see pages with .shtm extension in their names in the Cerber's logs, they do not exist anymore. If they would, they would not be shown in the Cerber's logs. 2. To get rid of those remains completely, I recommend running the full scan and deleting all unattended files. Please read more on how to use the scanner: https://wpcerber.com/wordpress-security-scanner/
