How to enable Suhosin with PHP 5.5.32

[cowner]

Hi

I am pretty new with WHM and I was looking ways to enable Suhosin in my WHM?

If there is GUI way of doing this, I would prefer it.

Also, I read that Suhosin 0.9.36 version would have some bug. How can I verify that what version of Suhosin am I enabling?

Is there something that I should be aware of regarding enabling Suhosin.

Hello ,

You have root access of your server so you can install PHPSuHosin on your server with the following command.

/scripts/phpextensionmgr install PHPSuHosin

Ok, thanks!

But how will I know that which version am I installing?

Hello

Documentation on this is found at:

PHP Options - EasyApache - cPanel Documentation

Here's the section on Suhosin:

Suhosin
The Suhosin patch improves the security of your PHP installation.
Notes:

• If you use PHP 5.4 or above, EasyApache uses Suhosin 0.9.36.
• If you use PHP 5.3, EasyApache uses Suhosin 0.9.33.

Ok so Suhosin 0.9.36. would be used in my case.

I read from somewhere that Suhosin 0.9.36. would have some bug or bug's in it. Is this true?

Hello

Yes, you can review the URL included in my last response for information about an existing bug in that version of Suhosin.

Thank you.

Ok, thanks! I guess its best for me to wait until the update for Suhosin comes. I will keep on eye on the topic that you provided link for.

Are there even any gestimate about when this update could possibly be available?

It's tentatively scheduled for this week, but there's no specific time frame we can offer. You can follow the progress at:

Suhosin Update to 0.9.38

Keep in mind that EasyApache 4 does not currently support Suhosin. You can vote and add feedback to that feature request at:

Thank you.
