Major Mail Carries Blocking System Emails
It seems that all of the emails sent from clientexec to the major carriers (gmail, yahoo, msn etc.,) are being either blocked completely or marked as spam (msn). When I send an email from outlook from the same domain client exec is on the email goes through fine. I have added an SPF Record and my domain is not "blacklisted" for spam anywhere.

Perl Removed
A client's server's password was guessed, and the hacker conveniently uninstalled perl. I can't seem to get perl reinstalled. Any ideas on how this would be done? RPM, TAR's and YUM don't work, as they require perl! Is this going to be a reinstall job?

Old Version Of Perl
I have a Centos VPS with Cpanel. I have begun receiving some email notifications, apparantly from my cpanel... The latest one says that the version of perl I am running is too old. Subj: [checkperlmodules] perl version too old (v5.8.8 required, v5.8.7 is installed.) Are there any problems or dire consequences from upgrading or side effects? What version should I upgrade to?

Perl Security
ive been trying to install it for about 3 hours and ive finally got it working. now, how do i configure it to be nice and secure? first thing is that i want to restrict which paths people can use in scripts. my site needs to access any paths but site users can only access their own directories. i want the exact same thing as in this thread but with perl instead of php how do i block certain functions and which ones do i block? i heard perl and php are very similar so im guessing i want to block similar functions to the ones listed here

Servage With Perl Scripting
I've used Servage for about 18 months. For most of that time there have been no problems. Then they decided to upgrade the cluster. This happened 3 weeks ago. Since then, there has been a catalogue of problems, mostly centred around a Perl script my site uses to implement a wiki. The first problem was that they had removed four of the supporting Perl modules used by my Perl script. All of the missing modules are ones you would expect to find on any server that claims to support Perl. They had warned that this might happen (obviously too difficult for them to make sure that the upgraded server has all the Perl modules) so I notified them with a list of missing modules expecting the modules to be restored quickly. It actually took 1 week, during which time their support team tried their best to annoy me by giving responses related to PHP (apparently they'd managed to kill PHP scripting completely) and a non-working link to a list of installed modules (I knew what was installed already). Having now got the script running, I hit a further problem. Prior to the upgrade the script had run under the "webserver" account. It was now running under the "you" account. This meant it couldn't write to its own data files. I had real trouble getting Servage to understand this one, let alone fix it. Most of their answers were about how to change the ownership of my script, which makes absolutely no difference to the problem. Eventually, after 4 days, they tried to fix the problem. The result was that my website became completely inaccessible. Even the static content was giving a 403 error. Again, it took support a while to understand the problem and about 1.5 days to fix it. At this point Servage claimed to have fixed all outstanding issues. However, my script was still running under the wrong account. In frustration, I changed the ownership of all the script's data files to "you", which at least got my wiki running again. However, I now find that people can't upload images to the site. Any attempt to do so produces an error "CGI open of tmpfile: Permission denied". I've given up. I think my chances of getting Servage to even understand the problem are minimal. I'm not even going to try. I will be moving to another host as soon as possible - probably a VPS. That way I should be able to fix most problems myself.

How To Find Cause Of Perl Infestation
find my server filled with suspicious perl processes, most likely the result of bad PHP coding somewhere on my box. I successfully eradicated all of it, but I know it'll only come back again unless I figure out where it came from. Anyone have any ideas how to track it down? I'd search all the httpd logs for each domain, but I don't really know what I'd be looking for.

Smarter Mail - Spammers Targetting Mail Server Using Dynamic Ip's
We have been having some problems with one of our mail servers lately. Server is running Smarter Mail 4.x with declude. Some spammers have been targeting this particular to send spam through this server. This putting lot of load on the server because declude is processing the SPOOL in Smarter Mail and spool goes upto 2000-20000 during the day. We have been checking the headers and blocking the IP's continuously of these spam but these people are using dynamic ip's. And it doesn't seem like single spammer. Content is quite different. Blocking full ranges of certain IP Range helps though but then lot of legitimate mail is getting blocked as well. Is there any good suggestion or a serious mail server admin who can have a look and actually sort it. This is causing serious delays on our mail delivery through this mail server.

Running Perl Script On Cron
I tried using this perl script which supposedly restarts apache when server load reaches 5 and above Code: #!/usr/bin/perl -w #use strict; $|++; open(LOAD,"/proc/loadavg") || die "couldn't open /proc/loadavg: $! "; my @load=split(/ /,<LOAD>); close(LOAD); if ($load[0] > 5) { `/sbin/service httpd restart`; } and placed it in /usr/local/script/loadavg.pl and chmod to 755 and added this to my crontab */1 * * * * root /usr/local/script/loadavg.pl my server load went up to 20 and waited if it will automatically go down via the script but it seems it's not working. I had to restart apache manually.

Howto Install Perl Module

Deny Perl In Public Folders
How do you guys deny run of perl/bash scripts from /tmp, /var/tmp, /dev/shm? I've tried to build simple shell wrapper, but that's not a compromise if you run for example spamassassin on the same server (it needs direct io to/from perl binary). I'm looking intro some kind of binary wrapper or patch that will deny running perl scripts from public folders (also the same for shell scripts will be great). Any ideas or solutions? If anyone interested in primitive shell wrapper code: Code: #!/bin/sh ARGS=`echo $@ | grep -v "/tmp/"` if [ "$ARGS" != "" ]; then /usr/bin/perl.orig $ARGS; fi

Perl Processess On A Cpanel Server
Its a cpanel server with latest version. I have been noticing that several perl process are running most of the times which takes a lot CPU resource percentage, The server wads deployed som 5 months back but i have been noticing these perl processess from like 10-15 days, it looks like this PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 31097 nobody 25 0 7188 3284 1176 R 46 0.2 1322:57 perl 25122 nobody 25 0 8988 4104 1160 R 45 0.2 620:22.34 perl 28144 nobody 25 0 7852 3712 1232 R 34 0.2 600:18.11 perl 6878 nobody 25 0 9316 4064 1104 R 33 0.2 1007:38 perl 25120 nobody 25 0 8980 4068 1128 R 33 0.2 623:28.04 perl 8263 nobody 15 0 8496 4308 1260 S 2 0.2 0:28.21 perl What should i do to close them all and to make them occur not anymore, I dont think there is any perl based script working on the server. Not even much PHP based functionalit, Only static HTML pages.

DoS + This Perl Script I Wrote...
I'm nearly at my wits end with this. My server keeps going down lately, and I suspect some kind of DoS. Whenever it does, sometimes I can even watch it happen. Such as: Quote: 80 requests currently being processed, 0 idle workers WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWKWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWKWWWWWWWWWWWWWWCWWWWWWCWWW WWWWWWCWKWWWWWWW I watched it fill up like that, from my NORMAL status: Quote: 13.8 requests/sec - 33.6 kB/second - 2484 B/request 22 requests currently being processed, 36 idle workers ___K__C____CC__C_C_____.C_C____C_CC_K___K_K_KKK__KCKK__W___..... ................ That's what it usually looks like. Anyway, more and more Ws were added in a matter of seconds as I watched it. Next thing, my site doesn't load, and it goes dead. My TimeOut in apache was set to 5 seconds. Now it's at 2, though. I do have keep alive on, but it is VERY low, like its set to 2 seconds and the max keep alives is set to 15 or so. I have been working on even just catching who is doing this for about 2 weeks now, trying everything to my ability. Here is everything from start to finish: 1. First I tried mod_evasive - this program seems worthless, it doesn't ever detect anything. I can post settings if need be, but ive played with it and it just doesn't work well I find. I have more trouble with it getting false positives. Also, I tried going over the apache logs. For me, this has been a nightmare because its just so hard to see between attackers and non attackers... and i've come up with nothing. 2. I tried APF with AntiDOS but it didn't seem to do anything... 3. I read about DDoS deflate by medialayer, and installed it and gave it a shot. It didn't do anything for me. I tried poking around with the command they have on their website and I found the results quite weird, it didnt show me all of the IPs like it was supposed to, but rather some mess like: Code: 1 (ip here) 3 (ip here) 9 (1 addres ses) So I did more searches online, and eventually came across this command: Code: netstat -ntu | grep ':' | awk '{print $5}' | awk '{sub("::ffff:","");print}' | cut -f1 -d ':' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr This seemed nice, looked like it was working as it should this time. I used the test.pl ( my only test for this, I have trouble finding other tools )that comes with mod_evasive and sure enough it showed connections by me in there about like 150 or so after. I thought, 'hey thats pretty good, now ill try to make a script to parse it.' I did this, and then croned the script to run every minute. Then I asked a friend of mine who I know has a better "DoS"er (though won't give it to anyone, understandably) to test the defence. It didn't hold up well at all. He suggested making the script run in an infinite loop instead of a cron, and make it sleep in the loop forever. I did just that, and it now runs every 5 seconds. Here is the script, it's not the best, but it's all I've got now: Code: #!/usr/bin/perl # Dos use IO::Socket; my $command; for (my $i=0; 1; $i++) { $command = `netstat -ntu | grep ':' | awk '{print $5}' | awk '{sub("::ffff:","");print}' | cut -f1 -d ':' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr`; @lines = split / /, $command; foreach my $line (@lines) { @twospleet = split(" ", $line); if($twospleet[0] > 150) { if($twospleet[1] != "") { $carp=$twospleet[1]; $carp2=$twospleet[0]; $block = "/usr/local/sbin/apf -d $carp $carp2"; system($block); } } } sleep(5); } This actually worked; he started his attack, it found his IP, and he was blocked, and I didn't go down. The netstat command showed him in with some 200 something connections before he was blocked. I was not able to see if this was effective against this issue until today, haven't been hit for 4 days now or so (perhaps some sort of easter vacation?). Today though, I watched the same thing happen again, filled to the brim with Ws. The netstat command I found doesn't seem to be helping me here. If I am correct: W means Sending Reply, according to the server status page. So what's going on here, someones making lots of connections and my system can't send a reply back for some reason? My main questions are, 1. Am I right, that this is some kind of DoS? 2. If yes, how is this being done? And are there any test scripts available that I can download and try on myself to watch the statistics & test some more? 3. And again, how can I go about detecting whatever this is? Maybe some better netstat command, or something I can look for on the command page? 4. Is there any way to improve my perl script to protect against this? 5. If it isn't a DoS attack, what else might it be?

Perl Filter Strange Error
I have a very strange error with mod_ext_filter (apache 2.2/php5.2.4) Filter is defined with ExtFilterDefine output_filter mode=output intype=text/html outtype=text/html cmd="path_to_filter_file" and called with <Directory "/home/users/"> SetOutputFilter output_filter filter file ------ use strict; $_ = join('',<STDIN>); $_=$_.'test'; print $_; -------------- And now the problem. I want to automatically add extra html code with this filter. On most sites working fine without problem. PhpBB3 working just fine, for example. But on other php scripts like vBulletin, SMF, Nuke, IPB it brokes entire site. IE6 have unterminable refreshes, IE7 displays an error page, Firefox retunrs a blank page if extra code is placed on header. With Opera errors are minimal but sometimes it displays some strange code. These errors are only related to vBulletin, SMF, Nuke, IPB and few others. Removing this line $_=$_.'test'; everything is back to the normal without extra code

Mail Proxy: How To Stop CGI Mail Proxies
During last week, two of our clients' accounts got compromised (most probably due to weak passwords) and there was a CGI script installed which started sending emails to more than 200,000 email accounts. This email addresses were stored in a text file. By the time we noticed this activity, our server got black listed on major RBLs like Barracuda, SpamCop, Spamhaus etc and it took around 2 days to cleanup 3 days later, another account compromised with same *thing* and it really is pain in the arse now dealing with this and angry clients We've already implemented a policy to restrict users to send 100 messages/per hour/domain which is working, but it seems this *thing* bypass exim. I guess this Open Proxy Servers a Source of Spam is what i want to explain! So my question is, if I've understood this right, is it possible to stop scripts like this or can we enforce mailman to use exim all the time to send messages and stop direct-mailing?

Separate Mail Server- Deliver Mail To Hotmail
i'm thinking about building a separate mail server away from my cpanel/whm machine. that mail server will be located on a different IP address with "clean" record so that business email won't get deleted my strict rules of hotmail. can you please tell me, generally, about this "buidling separate mail server", i.e. what MTA, software, web-mail software, will it be worth? ,etc. Pointing me in the right direction will allow me to complete the project in the shortest time.
