CSF Firewall / Re: Configserver down?

« Last post by DragoCom on September 04, 2025, 02:12:11 PM »

CSF is gone for good as of Aug 31st, now what??? Why didn't CWP address this in the fresh installs instead of leaving everyone not working. That is VERY unprofessional!!!

Mod_Security / Re: OWASP CRS v4.15.0 Just Release

« Last post by mind5t0rm on September 04, 2025, 12:46:28 PM »

Mod_Security should not overwrite anything, it only does that when you change a setting like ModSec Rules Profile or Rules ENgine.

It is not mod_security

I mentioned before, it is the CWP Security Daemon that is checking the integrity of the files and overwrites known system files that have unknown edits.

My host (InMotion Hosting) confirmed that to me. Maybe it's their custom security module. I don't know.

The only thing I know is that on a regular basis, my mod_security.conf file would get overwritten with the default "Include:" path creating a chaos on my websites.

I hope this helps.

Starburst has a guide for installing CWP with MariaDB 10.6, after which you can update to 10.11 or 11.x (LTS versions):

Also every website I add it seems that all the pages are showing that cwp default page

I got that to install using his guide, I just cannot get CSF to enable now and I have followed everything on here that I could find, I must be missing something.

Please see the other threads about CSF going open source (GPLv3). Info about converting to the v15 open source release:

CSF Firewall / Configserver down?

« Last post by DragoCom on September 04, 2025, 01:43:51 AM »

During fresh install of cwp the csf firewall errored on install, I have tried everything to get it to install but it may be due to their server being down:

[root@viking src]# sudo wget https://download.configserver.com/csf.tgz
--2025-09-04 03:39:53--  https://download.configserver.com/csf.tgz

CSF Firewall / Re: How to add *.domain.com to CSF Firewall

« Last post by DragoCom on September 03, 2025, 11:57:43 PM »

To make ahrefbot unable to access your server you need to block the IPs of the hosts used by the ahrefbot. You can obtain the IPs here:
https://help.ahrefs.com/en/articles/78658-what-is-the-list-of-your-ip-ranges
Just put the IPs into:
/etc/csf/csf.deny
and then restart CSF.

Please pay attention the IPs (networks) used by the bot can be changed from time to time. So it is better to obtain and update the IPs in CSF using the script from the following link:
https://api.ahrefs.com/v3/public/crawler-ip-ranges
and then restart csf.

You're correct. I signed up for the service specifically so yes I do want to allow it. I have been adding the ip addresses but the firewall keeps blocking even with them in the allow perm list.
