As a part of ensuring security, we perform a CSF security scan from WHM. We may get the following error after the scan
Check csf LF_SCRIPT_ALERT option WARNING This option will notify you when a large amount of email is sent from a particular script on the server, helping track down spam scripts
To fix this error : ssh into the server and edit the csf configuration file
vi /etc/csf/csf.conf
search for LF_SCRIPT_ALERT = “0″
Change the value from “0″ to “1″ to fix the issue.
Don’t forget to restart the CSF
You may also get the following error :
Check exim for extended logging (log_selector) WARNING You should enable extended exim logging to enable easier tracking potential outgoing spam issues. Add:log_selector = +arguments +subject +received_recipients
FIX:
Edit the exim configuration file :
/etc/exim.conf
Change the value from “log_selector = +all” to the following :
log_selector = +arguments +subject +received_recipients
save and restart the CSF to get this resolved.
Edit or create the file (if it doesn't exist): /root/.forward, and add a single email address in it.
