Important Vulnerability on Advanced Custom Fields Plugin for WordPress

At 11am EST on Friday 3 April, we’ll be conducting a live webinar on the new features and updates of Imunify360. Sign up and join the conversation on what’s new with our automated server protection suite.

The recording of the webinar is available here.

 

If you’re using Imunify360 on your servers, you’ve got a powerful system for cleaning up malware that’s also safe. If you use the recommended default settings, the sites you host will stay up and running. 

Your backups will be easy and reliable as well. That’s because Imunify360 is integrated with popular backup services, and makes sure that all of your backup files are malware-free. Let’s examine Imunify360’s linux malware scanner and malware cleanup capabilities in detail. In addition, Imunify360 prepared an article about 360 clean up in Imunify Security Suite covering how to remove malicious code.

 

 

 

Some Imunify360 customers don’t use the Auto Cleanup option because they’re afraid that it will break client web sites. They’re afraid that if a WordPress index.php file gets infected, for instance, the file will be blocked by Malware Scanner for Linux servers, and the web site will go down.

These fears are unfounded. Malware Scanner removes malicious code that’s been injected into a file, while leaving the rest of the file intact. It also removes malicious files that have been included into other files. Enabling Auto Cleanup is completely safe and effective.

 

In version 4.5, Imunify360 introduced a new way to prevent brute-force attacks against mail accounts: a PAM module extension that integrates with cPanel to block attacks that target the Exim and Dovecot bundle.

Let’s explore the problems that this new PAM module extension solves, examine how it works, and learn how to use it.
