you can simply add that process to csf/lfd ignore list if you allow it
in file /etc/csf/csf.pignore at end as new line add this
exe:/usr/local/bin/php-cgi
then restart lfd
service lfd restart
I would like to disable the alert for a specific php file.
Example: disable the alert for cron.php, but leave it to others.
thank you
You can whitelist your PHP script by adding fullpath in below file, or you can also add user to ignore files in ownership of a particular user.
/etc/csf/csf.fignore
