Changes:

• New version of MailScanner v4.70.7:
  http://www.mailscanner.info/ChangeLog

Changes:

• Additional SSHD regex added to regex.pm


• Improved the WHM UI reporting of the csf status: disabled, running, testing mode


• Added Enable/Start buttons to WHM UI next to the csf status if disabled/stopped


• Updated Server Report checks for csf status


• Changed the destination of the ConfigServer Services link at the bottom of the WHM UI to go to the csf web page

Changes:

• Fixed an issue currently in cPanel EDGE that affects the use of the cPanel SafeFile module in WHM scripts

Changes:

• Increased the IP lookup timeout for reported IP's from 5 to 10 seconds


• Improved lfd internal timing system for event triggers


• Added new feature - Account Tracking. The new AT_* options configure an alert system for account modifications which will send an email if there are new accounts added, existing accounts deleted plus password uid gid login dir and login shell changes. Each of these changes can be enabled or disabled. You can also enable tracking for superuser accounts only. That latter is the default setting. This feature uses the email template accounttracking.txt


• Added reason text to temporary IP bans


• Added Server Report check for ini_set in PHP disable_functions


• Added ossec to list of processes to disable as it will conflict and duplicate csf functionality


• Changed Server Check scoring text to instead show a coloured table indicating score

Changes:

• Modified cPanel Msfe.pm to use the new Cpanel::SafeFile module otherwise it fails within cPanel with:
  [a fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive]

It appears that many VPS servers overnight have installed the OS vendor version of perl, e.g. v5.8.5. This has meant that most of the perl modules that cPanel itself along with csf, MailScanner and other perl scripts use are missing. This in turn means that many perl based scripts (e.g. MailScanner, csf, cPanel itself) will have stopped functioning.

To resolve this issue, either run:

/scripts/checkperlmodules

Or, better, upgrade back to perl v5.8.8 using the distribution on the cPanel site:
http://layer1.cpanel.net/

You might also get away with simply going to /usr/bin/ and copying the perl v5.8.8 binary over the live perl binary.

Whichever method you use, with MailScanner at least, you'll have to update MailScanner either from our install script, or by selecting the Force MailScanner Update button for MailScanner in the WHM UI.

It would then probably be a good idea to run:

/scripts/upcp -force

How this happened is odd as /etc/yum.conf on cPanel includes perl* in the ignore list.

Changes:

• New version of MailScanner v4.69.9. Changelog at http://www.mailscanner.info/ChangeLog


• Added check for /var/spool/exim being mounted as a separate fileystem that some silly Server Providers are configuring as temporary virtual mountpoints

Changes:

• Changes to WHM UI script for cPanel v11


• Removed cPanel v10 backported WHM UI settings, i.e. v10 no longer supported


• Added # of temp blocks to WHM UI "Temporary IP Bans" on main page


• Modified Server Report check for register_globals in cPanel's php.ini to use the new cPanel WHM setting


• Added Server Report check for passwords in WHM email setting


• Added Server Report check for WHM root/reseller login to users cPanel


• Modified Server Report nobody cron check to only fail on non-zero cron file


• Modified Server Report check for Fedora now that Fedora 7 is EOL (2008-06-13)


• Added new option DYNDNS_IGNORE to ignore DYNDNS entries when lfd blocking

Changes:

• Modified regex matching to allow for trailing spaces in log lines


• Modified PT_LOAD routine to prevent multiple triggers resulting in more than one alert being email sent


• Removed the need for NETSTAT from lfd to reduce overheads and improve performance allowing CT_INTERVAL to be set lower. Now uses /proc/net/[protocol]

Changes:

• This version improves handling of PDF, CAB, RTF, OLE2 and HTML files and includes various bugfixes for 0.93 issues

If you use MSFE you can upgrade using the UI.
