The cPanel Development team has issued a hot fix that will address this issue and will automatically update the SpamAssassin ruleset to resolve this issue.

This patch has been installed to all 040 Hosting managed servers but we advise customers to check their spam box more thorougly and to check their mail of the past days if they have enabled spamassassin in their cPanel.

For a more detailed explanation and information on resolving this problem on a non-cPanel environment, please review:

https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=6269

As always, the entire cPanel team has pulled together to provide a rapid response to this issue as we realize proper email delivery is mission critical.

SpamAssassin 2010 bug

A software developer has uncovered a bug in most versions of Linux that could allow untrusted users to gain complete control over the open-source operating system.

The null pointer dereference flaw was only fixed in the upcoming 2.6.32 release candidate of the Linux kernel, making virtually all production versions in use at the moment vulnerable. While attacks can be prevented by implementing a common feature known as mmap_min_addr, the RHEL distribution, short for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, doesn’t properly implement that protection, Brad Spengler, who discovered the bug in mid October, told The Register.

Read the complete article at The Register. New kernels are available for Redhat and CentOS (obviously), and likely others who may be affected.

At the moment of publishing all main servers have been updated and others are scheduled for tonight.
Note:  this article was placed on the 4th of november 2009

Bug in latest Linux gives untrusted users root access

The Seattle data center received additional 10G peering connections from Comcast and the Seattle Internet Exchange (SIX), as well as 10G transit connections from Level 3 and NTT America. The facility’s upgrades included the installation of Internap’s Flow Control Platform (FCP), which enhances Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing performance by monitoring each provider’s connections and rerouting traffic when a connection is interrupted.

The Dallas data center’s upgrades included adding a 10G Comcast connection for private peering. Currently this link carries more than 2.5Gbps of network traffic; in the coming days, it will have connectivity into Equinix facilities in Dallas and Washington DC, providing direct connections to additional carriers.

The upgraded data center connectivity looks as follows:

Dallas, TX

• Comcast – 1x10Gbps
• Global Crossing – 1x10Gbps
• Internap – 1x10Gbps
• Level 3 – 1x10Gbps
• NTT America – 2x10Gbps
• SAVVIS – 1x10Gbps
• Equinix – 1x10Gbps

Seattle, WA

• Comcast – 1x10Gbps
• Internap – 2x10Gbps
• Level 3 – 1x10Gbps
• Quest – 1x10Gbps
• SIX – 1x10Gbps

Washington, DC

• Internap – 2x10Gbps
• Level 3 – 1x10Gbps
• NTT America – 2x10Gbps
• Equinix – 1x10Gbps

Network Maintenance notice 22nd and 29th of november

We are allowing four hours for the maintenance, but the actual downtime should be much less if the upgrade goes smoothly. We are aiming for as little downtime as possible, however as the maintenance will include potential replacement of all blades on the switch we are stretching for a much larger window.

Please be advised of this scheduled maintenance window and allow for adequate time to pass before opening up any support tickets during this maintenance window.  We thank you in advance for your time and understanding in this matter.

Affected Servers: Only the New Jersey based servers.
