ConfigServer Community Forum

I have the same problem. Why not add the option to the configuration, something like:
PROTECT_IPSETS = myset_1, myset_2
or another settigns file that contains the names of the list to be left alone at restart:

#FILE csf.ipsets_protected
myset_1
myset_2

I could do that in the main csf PERL file but on update the changes will unavoidably be gone.

Dear ConfigServer Firewall Community,

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to propose a new feature that I believe would significantly enhance the security and usability of the ConfigServer Firewall (CSF), particularly regarding SSH login alerts.

I'd like to suggest an enhancement to the SSH login alert system. The idea is to implement a conditional alert mechanism that...

Currently connection tracking blocks all ports even if you have CT_PORTS defined.

Similar to LF_SELECT, it would be great to have an option to only block defined CT_PORTS.

Thank you.

I have CSF setup to only block IP access to service ports for which a block occurs.

When running csf -t, I see an entry for each service port that has been blocked, however, the port column shows an aggregate of the ports being blocked.

For instance:

csf -g xxx.68.22.155

Hello,

The PERL script /etc/csf/lfd.pl which is running as a daemon, when we enable CSF UI, checks incoming headers, and it requires them to be capitalized.

For example:

if ($header{'Content-Length'} > 0) {
if ($header{'Content-Length'} > $maxbody) {
and

if ($header{'Content-Type'} =~ /multipart\/form-data/) {
$client->read($fileinc,$header{'Content-Length'});
} else {...

Hi,

We appreaciate all the work done on CSF!
However, we are not able to set both source and destination IP address in csf.allow.
Therefor we need another work around and set it manually in iptables.

Please add the option to set both source and destination IP. This would greatly improve on CSF.
Something like
tcp|in|d=443|s=10.0.0.2,d=172.0.0.2 #Allow tcp-in from 10.0.0.2 to port 443 on...

Hi! I am a user of cpanel 10 y. now
Last 1 y. i test some servers with aapanel and after of 9m test i have add it to live server 3 month now!
The csf is one of my favorite tool and is the ONLY TOOL THAT I AM MISSING from cpanel!
Has anyone else tried to install the csf in aapenel? has any one try to add it to difrent system ?

Specifically in my case, I am just having to do a migration to a new OS, and new cPanel.

The IP address of the server will eventually be the same.

Ideally, no systems should even notice.

I would like to preserve my settings and IP block / whitelist tables.

I expect it may be a copy of a number of files. But I don't know which ones are particularly important or even should not be copied over....

Dear MaxMind customer,

We’re writing because, between July 15 and August 14, we saw GeoIP download requests from your account that are not being sent with HTTPS (see details below). To improve our server infrastructure and allow for better performance and efficiency, MaxMind will begin requiring HTTPS for GeoIP download requests in March 2024. To help customers get ready for this change, we will...

Hi,
Currently in the watch/search log in CSF we only have :
/var/lib/mysql/myserver.myhost.err

Do you think it would be possible to have also the mysql Slow Query Log file access ?
/var/lib/mysql/myserver-slow.log

And why not also the general log ?
/var/lib/mysql/myserver.log

Thanks
Best regards

Hi.
Is possible to have an enable on/off setting that could be set to add white listed IPs in cPhulk as well?

This will be a great addition, right now it should be done manually and most of the time is forgoten and is not white listed in cPhulk.
Also, Could it be possible that when doing a search for a blocked IP that the search could include cPhulk?

Regards,
Sergio

Hestia CP is fork of Vesta CP.

Hello,

Having too many data in /etc/csf/csf.deny makes it impossible to edit the file in a web-interface of Directadmin.
It is a built-in limit in DirectAdmin when a loading variable 'POST' is limited to hard-coded 125749 bytes. Whenever a 'POST' request of a bigger size arrives it gets rejected by DirectAdmin and no changes are actually saved.

In Directadmin logs one can see a line of the...

Hello ,

Will Plesk panel support come in the near future?

Would it actually be good? I don't know your roadmap but I think plesk panel is really necessary.

Hi,
I have configured below settings in csf.conf
LF_HTACCESS = 5
LF_HTACCESS_PERM = 1
HTACCESS_LOG = /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log
PORTS_htpasswd = 80,443

This settings blocks the IPs which makes brute force attempts to password protected directories through http requests, apache logs :
