uzair Posted April 10, 2016 Posted April 10, 2016 Johonny is on Kernel Version 2.6.18-406.el5 which has avaliable localroot exploit is it patched for rooting server remotely, symlinking and server jumping works on hostgrator also please include anti-virus so it can detect server shell like c99, wso etc and disable it before hacker executes it..
wolstech Posted April 10, 2016 Posted April 10, 2016 We already have an antivirus that is updated and run regularly...people get suspended for shells and similar all the time. As for the kernel issue, I don't recall it ever being updated in the time I've been here. OpenSSL is also old and lacks support for new standards...and everything else on both servers is ancient too. To be honest, I don't think anything we use aside from the AV is current. We don't update because the updates like to break things, especially cPanel. There's also user websites that rely on the older versions of things like PHP. As a result, we use what cP recommends and what is backwards compatible...much of which is not recent.
wolstech Posted April 11, 2016 Posted April 11, 2016 Krydos will know for sure whether these are actually issues for us. Let's find out.
