Root .ssh directory disappeared (including authorized_keys) after CWP update?

Hello,

I have experienced exactly the same issue on two completely different CWP servers.

Environment:
- CWP on AlmaLinux 8
- Two independent VPSs
- Different providers
- Root SSH on custom port (62424)

On both servers, after a recent CWP update, SSH public key authentication stopped working.

After investigating, I found that the entire directory:

    /root/.ssh

had disappeared.

Not only authorized_keys, but the complete .ssh directory was gone.

I had to recreate:

- /root/.ssh
- authorized_keys
- permissions (700/600)

After restoring them, SSH key authentication immediately started working again.

On one of the servers, CWP also stopped starting because the following file was missing:

    /etc/pki/tls/certs/hostname.crt

The other files still existed:

- hostname.cert
- hostname.bundle
- hostname.key

Creating the missing symbolic link:

    hostname.crt -> hostname.cert

made cwpsrv start again.

I don't know whether both issues are related, but the disappearance of /root/.ssh happened on two different CWP servers, which makes me suspect it could be related to a recent update.

There are no custom maintenance scripts on either server that modify /root/.ssh or SSL certificates.

Has anyone else experienced the complete disappearance of /root/.ssh after a recent CWP update?

Thanks.
