cPFence wav3front No WAF updates were released recently. I see you already received a reply on the support ticket you opened. Please update us there if you need any further assistance.
cPFence wav3front It turned out to be a WAF false positive caused by a Cloudflare issue where POST, PUT, and PATCH request bodies could arrive empty at the origin, incorrectly triggering WAF protection. More information: Cloudflare community discussion reported today: https://community.cloudflare.com/t/post-put-patch-body-arrives-empty-at-origin-since-2026-07-17-has-origin-pull-requ/940679 We have just released a new cPFence version that mitigates this issue while we wait for the Cloudflare team to roll out a permanent fix.
