Whitelist PDNS processes

Post by Floffy »

Hello,

As cPanel have implemented Powerdns to cPanel v. 60 (dev) I'm getting alot of emails from lfd:

Time: Mon Aug 15 10:00:44 2016 +0200
Account: named
Resource: Process Time
Exceeded: 41611 > 1800 (seconds)
Executable: /usr/sbin/pdns_server
Command Line: /usr/sbin/pdns_server --daemon
PID: 19587 (Parent PID:19587)
Killed: No


Time: Mon Aug 15 10:00:44 2016 +0200
PID: 19587 (Parent PID:19587)
Account: named
Uptime: 41611 seconds


Executable:

/usr/sbin/pdns_server


Command Line (often faked in exploits):

/usr/sbin/pdns_server --daemon


Network connections by the process (if any):

udp: 0.0.0.0:53 -> 0.0.0.0:0
tcp: 0.0.0.0:53 -> 0.0.0.0:0


Files open by the process (if any):

/dev/null
/dev/null
/dev/null


Memory maps by the process (if any):

7f75dc000000-7f75dc021000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0

Would it be possible for you to whitelist these processes as they will be common on many servers in the future when hosting companies are using PDNS?

We'll add this in the next release of csf. For now you can add the following to /etc/csf/csf.pignore and then resart lfd:

Code: Select all

exe:/usr/sbin/pdns_server

I also get a lot of these:

Excessive resource usage:Virtual Memory Size - ttesting
Time: Fri Aug 19 07:48:12 2016 +0200
Account: ttesting
Resource: Virtual Memory Size
Exceeded: 419 > 256 (MB)
Executable: /opt/cpanel/ea-php70/root/usr/bin/lsphp.cagefs
Command Line: lsphp
PID: 132482 (Parent PID:131258)
Killed: No

Is this something you could add aswell?
