mod_security issues

as far as you may concern, mod_security is loaded at Apache and compiled into and there's no option of disabling it per domain at the moment.

 

htaccess can turn it off for a domain. add

<IfModule mod_security.c>
# Turn off mod_security filtering.
SecFilterEngine Off

# The below probably isn't needed.
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

to their htaccess file, although it would be better to fix the rules if they are breaking webmail rather than leaving a domain un protected.

You can add eclusions to mode sec, check the logs and see what is causing the problem and either remove the rule or add an exlusion for the script that is having problems.

eg
###########################################
#script exclusions
###########################################
<LocationMatch "myscript.php">
SecFilterInheritance Off
</LocationMatch>

 

While this works, for a production environment mod_security should be compiled in with the option to not allow users to alter it with .htaccess.

Instead the rules should be corrected or whitelist the user in httpd.conf

 

how can we do it ??

manual or from easyapache ?

if manual can we know how ?
