    Hi, I have the problem, since the last update 7.3.6, the cPanel WAF (cPGuard) detects the Wordfence file wordfenceClass.php as malicious. Although it is in the cPGuard exception log, it still deletes the file. My system is based on the LiteSpeed ??web server. The only solution that worked was to completely remove Wordfence. I have more than 10 sites with this problem

  • Hey @webmaster8rx,

    Thanks for sharing this. This is definitely a false positive. The developers are currently looking into it and contacting cPGuard. I’ll be sure to update you when I know more.

    My apologies for the inconvenience.

    Thanks,

    Hey @webmaster8rx,

    Just an update. The developers were able to reach cpGuard and received this information.

    Thank you for the report. We have already taken corrective actions against the reported issue as soon as we were alerted about it. Our update will be propagated to the respective systems during the next rules update schedule today.

    Thanks,
