cPFence UI is Here – Security Management, Now with a Mouse!

cPFence

Yeah, I see some members reporting the same issue in the community. Try opening a ticket with Adam to have it checked out.

Btw, what is cPFence downloading every hour? Seems to add up to about 2.5GB per server per day. Not huge or anything, but would it be possible to make this once a day or so? Or would there be potential downsides to that?

cPFence downloads virus signature updates hourly, and it’s only a few MB more—not significant by any means. If you’re seeing more than this being used by cPFence, something is definitely off. If that’s the case, please open a ticket, and our team will help figure it out.

cPFence

Ok, that's weird then, it's +/- 100MB every hour on all servers, I'll send the screenshots in a ticket

cPFence

rdbf

Your ticket has been answered now. Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Thanks for that. I agree with the hourly IPDB updates for sure. For the virus signatures I feel once a day would be fine if that saves like 80% of the incoming bandwidth every hour, but it's certainly not a big deal, especially since they don't take up extra space.

It's just that when looking out for issues/bugs due to the V12 updates, everything that's odd stands out suddenly, so that's why I asked.

@cPFence for me and perhabs for plenty others it would be wonderfull to have a bulkaction for forcing or avoiding www (editing the htaccess file). But with the differnece between domains and subdomains (no forcing for subdomains). Perhabs you can add this feature sometime...

So I just discovered that I opened cpfence --ui on all of the servers in my cluster. Coincidently I lost internet for couple of mins and I lost connection to all of my terminal sessions. Then I left it as is. After few hours, I found that all of my servers are showing a high CPU usage. When I ran the top command, I found a process with command "dialog" running on all servers is consuming 100% CPU. Is it cpfence UI? Because none of my servers are having anything related to dialog on it. @cPFence

The UI CPU usage is usually close to zero. Please open a ticket so we can check it out for you.

MDG There's already a bulk plugin install option!
cpfence --bulk-install-wp-plugin

badboybackagain

MDG

bluelinq-computers basically intalling via plugin zips.

Yes, you can already bulk install a plugin by searching for the plugin slug, using a URL with the plugin zip file, or specifying a path on the server with the plugin zip file.

Version 3.3.39 (7th March 2025)

Improved

Enhanced the Admin UI to better handle scenarios where users get disconnected or close the terminal with no clean exit, ensuring improved performance and stability during sessions.

Thanks to those who requested it. We’ve just updated our blog post with the full list for v12. Hope it helps:

Added

- Inode Usage Monitoring:
cPFence Owl now tracks filesystem inode usage in real-time, ensuring early detection of excessive file creation, potential abuse, or misconfigurations that could impact system stability and security. High inode usage can lead to server instability, failed writes, and performance issues—this new monitoring feature helps prevent these risks before they cause serious problems.

- New Interactive Tool for Real-Time WAF Log Tracking:
Quickly identify and troubleshoot potential false positives in cPFence WAF logs with this new interactive tool. This tool:

cPFence WAF Debug Tool

Automatically detects rule numbers responsible for blocked requests.
Suggests ready-to-use whitelisting commands for immediate action.

Run the tool using:
cpfence --debug-domain-waf

Improved

Enhanced WP-AutoShield compatibility with Bedrock-based WordPress installations.
Optimized WAF rules to prevent conflicts with phpMyAdmin on Enhance v12.

cpfence --debug-domain-waf

Great little change

btraill

Enhanced WP-AutoShield compatibility with Bedrock-based WordPress installations.

This was nice to see. Do you guys personally use Bedrock on any of your installs?

cPFence

btraill

Not really, but one of our clients reported an issue with a non-default wp-content path. So we optimized WP-AutoShield a bit to better handle that, hopefully, they’ll work well together now.

Andrei

@cPFence I think it would be nice to have a way to send an email with "malware found" to the client who's website is infected.

Thanks for the feedback, This is already on our roadmap for future features.
