security risks with cron jobs

[mher]

Hello,

I need to disable the cron jobs for security reasons because any user can run shell commands even if they dont have shell access.

Anyway to disable it or remove it from cpanel?

log in to WHM and go to Feature manager
then Edit a Feature List

remove cron check mark
then save

A reseller can easily change feature manger to create accounts with cron jobs

a better way is to creat a file /etc/cron.allow
anyone not listed in that file won't be able to use cron

Can you paste the content of that file ?
