  2. nftables support (firewall)

    Since 2014, with Linux kernel 3.13 and later, a new system for providing filtering and classification of network packets, datagrams and frames was introduced: nftables

    It is stateful and more modular than iptables and does support IPv6.

    As there are already packages for Archlinux or RHEL and so for CentOS and you can install on your own (of course), it would be great if in an upcoming (major) release iptables is replaced by nftables. Or a switch is implemented to use either the one or the other.

    More information on:
    https://wiki.nftables.org
    http://netfilter.org/projects/nftables/
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/nftables

  4. opcache memory per vhost instead of shared

    Currently Opcache is written in a shared memory it should be stored in the user's home folder. One client can see the all the scripts stored from all the sites hosted in the server.

    This feature request has only received very few votes over the course of 7 years. Also, there is no urgent technical requirement for it as the previous statement by Plesk mentioned:

    -----

    You wouldn't need to worry too much on version exposure: 1) should there be any vulnerability discovered, we will fix it for each  and every supported version. Just stay up2date 2) hiding version gives only false sense of security - attacker can  still apply all known vulnerabilities disregarding your actual version. There were just few vulnerabilities about Plesk and it is easy to run them all (though it won't give an impact as all of them are addressed already). It is even easier than capturing a version from a file.  If you remain heavily concerned, we can recommend applying Two-Factor authentication via Clef or Google Auth extensions at http://ext.plesk.com or maybe restricting Plesk control panel access to certain…

  6. Please add a recommended "file integrity monitoring" tool to your extensions catalog

    Any server that needs to be PCI compliant needs to have running a "file integrity monitoring" tool.

    This request was declined as it was created is more than 2 years ago and have the low number of votes.

    If you would like to suggest a specific file integrity monitoring tool for implementation please feel free to create a new feature request.

    Thank you.

  7. Allow for E-Mail Notifican of Fail2Ban IP addresses that get blocked

    Most fail2ban implementation have functionality that will allow for an alert email of IP's getting banned. This would be helpful for system administrators to review and take further action.

  8. Prevent decryption of passwords for customers/mail users/...

    At the moment, user/customer/... passwords are stored in the database in a way that they can still be decryted using the server's private key (see for instance http://serverfault.com/questions/425116/possible-to-get-cleartext-password). This is for instance used by the program mailauthview. Thus, once somebody knows the key and has access to the database, (s)he can decrypt all passwords.

    I would like to prevent the ability of decrypting passwords at all. Since many people use the same passwords across different accounts, I'd like to prevent the risk that user passwords unintentionally could get revealed if somebody gets access to the server.

  9. steering allowed SSLCiphers (negative >noCBC; positive >only GCM) for all System-layers (mail, Plesk-Login, Apache, Nginx) via Plesk

    Optimizing the Quality of SSL-/TLS-Encryption at Plesk-driven Servers is very complicated...

    ... while the importance of a high-level encryption - not only since Edward Snowden - is of considerable importance.

    please investigate:

    http://serverfault.com/questions/550247/sslciphersuite-disable-weak-encryption-cbc-cipher-and-md5-based-algorithm

    and

    http://www.kuketz-blog.de/nsa-abhoersichere-ssl-verschluesselung-fuer-apache-und-nginx/ (best article / only available in german)

    Please implement the possibility for defining/steering not/allowed Ciphers and not/allowed SSL-protocols directly via PleskPanel.

    This function should include ALL System-layers like: mail, webmail, Plesk-Login, SSH, PHP- or JAVA-Apps/Tomcat, Apache, Nginx, ...

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH

    Over the course of nine years this feature request has only received a handful of votes - although we had merged it with a similar request to get the full number of votes for both. We basically understand the need for top level security, but this feature seems not to be popular among users.

    Even the rather extreme kuketz-blog article says: "The technology for protection against spying is available – but hardly anyone uses it." which is another indication that hardly anyone is interested in specific configurations that harden servers to the extent where powerful players have difficulties reading traffic.

    Plesk allows using a "perfect security" configuration, but it seems that only very few individuals are actually interested in it and understand why this can make sense in some cases. As a responsible administrator who wants to provide perfect security to users you can implement it into your server along…

  13. Bind poppasd service to localhost only

    Currently poppassd listens on all IPs. Due to that an intruder can connect to the service via 106.
    Please implement binding of poppassd to localhost only.

  16. htaccess: let me rewrite to - [L,R=444] (tell the server to be silent, like in nginx)

    Save megawatts of electric power and hours of processor time.
    Let all those small-minded referral-spammers become desesperate, simply by not answering them at all.
    Of course, such a (non-)reaction is also useful in other cases.
