We’re pleased to announce a new version of ImunifyAV(+). Version 6.11 is now available. Discover more features in Imunify360. The following features are new in the v6.11 release:

• Debian 11 support
  We are proud to announce support for the latest release of the Debian distribution.
  

• UI for crontab malware detection and cleanup
  

Debian 11 support

ImunifyAV(+) will now start to support Debian 11 “bullseye” operation system with this release. Web hosting panels support is provided for Plesk, DirectAdmin, and stand-alone type of installation.

Imunify will stop supporting end-of-life Debian 9 starting from v6.12, which is planned to be released in March 2023. We recommend all Debian users upgrade to the latest LTS version as soon as possible to keep the ability to use the most recent versions of Imunify. Updated software is a crucial part of your servers’ security.

List of supported Debian versions:

Сrontab cleanup

In the previous 6.10 version of Imunify360, we introduced a mechanism allowing us to address Crontab infections with our powerful Malware scanner. We are adding an option to control the feature from the UI. The feature can be managed in the Settings menu.

This option enables or disables the scan of the system and user Crontab files for malicious jobs. It can be managed via CLI as well:

To switch it on:

# imunify-antivirus config update '{"MALWARE_SCANNING": {"crontabs": true}}'

And to switch it off:

# imunify-antivirus config update '{"MALWARE_SCANNING": {"crontabs": false}}'

The cleanup results are available on the Malware and History tabs of the interface as for any other type of malware.

We are going to publish more information about cron files protection in a separate blog post because it is so important to keep cron files protected. Keep watching for updates.
