How to fix the WHM CSF security test errors!

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.
