Lis Pendens from nowhere

Please anyone with experience of buying foreclosures could you help with advice in this situation?

I bought SFH in March at foreclosure auction and got certificate of title on this property. Several days ago I started to receive offers from attorneys to defend it from foreclosure. Checked in public records and indeed, found that in April someone filed Lis Pendens against of my property. From further research I figured out this record refers to mortgage done in 1993 by lender different from one that foreclosed on this house. However, that lender is not in the picture of threatening me to foreclose on my property but successor (?) who just bought the paper from him.

My question is: does second mortgage wiped out by first in foreclosure auction sale, or it has ground in court for whatever reason?
