RE: Release with php 7 compatibility - Eulogy - 05-29-2017

Last Update : I pull the EulogySnowfall-fedora-php7 branch to my master

So use that one instead to download my last installer version.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EulogySnowfall/sentora-installers/master/sentora_install.sh

I also did a master pull request to sentora. They will be able to accept once tests are done.

I don't think that one will really move except if we find typo or late tests bugs.

I'm starting a new security branch for now.

As I can see until today:

https://github.com/sektioneins/suhosin7/releases

Suhosin 7 have no official releases.


RE: Release with php 7 compatibility - Eulogy - 05-29-2017

Yeah I know, it's pre-alpha.

I just tried it out under php 7.0 distribution base (Ubuntu 16.04 and Fedora 25). I hoped to get something works, it was the case when I started to work on the project 2 weeks ago, but now probably something changed in the last php release.

However, if we want to evoluate and be compatible php 7, we need to find an alternative to Suhosin.

It's the reason why I'm working on a base security mod_security + fail2ban instead suhosin, at least for the php 7.x version.

We will continue to talk about that in the security discussion.

It actually surprises me how there aren't more projects like Suhosin available. It is a BIG World after all LOL

Effectively, we don't have a lot of choice as open source web firewall. I'm working for a Canadian hosting company, and we use Mod_security as web firewall layer like 80% of current web hosting.

The avantage of Suhosin on Mod_security, it's because Suhosin do almost a great job without any painful setting and optimization. All you need to do, it's disable some functions and Suhosin does what remain. or almost. The problem with Suhosin, it's because the main developer looks to don't continu the project. At least we have low support and update. It's the reason why I'm working on a project base with Mod_security, fail2ban and the OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set. A scalables core rule set with possibility of cron update. All compatible with Fast-cgi, apache and php 7.x . I'm on right optimization and customisation for the Mod_sec rules for Sentora. I'm working on php 7.0.19 without Suhosin.

This is what we need for involve the security of Sentora on the next version :

- Taking off zsudo from the code architecture;
- Put all bases passwords encrypted in the mysql Database;
- Change Suhosin for a customized Mod_security for evolution and compatibility;
- Change the input for ssl.conf for the vhost;
- incorporate a module with Let's Encrypt for give the possibility to the users to install a Free SSL through the interface.

With these ameliorations, I think Sentora can gain in popularity. Because one of the biggest critic about Sentora, his about his security leak.

Eulogy.
