Administrative and Maintenance Tools - AdminCP Firewall ~ Protect your AdminCP!

This is a mod I made to increase the security of your forum!

It has the following features:

• Email alert when an Admin logs into the CP
• IP Checking for Admins
• E-Mail if the IP isn't whitelisted
• Block user access to the AdminCP if the IP isn't whitelisted
• E-Mail if someone fails an AdminCP login

Those features will allow you to secure your AdminCP - and the only upload required is the product file!

So, what are you waiting for? Install now

Currently homeless in Hong Kong..Live in China normally but there is a visa situation that is not working in my favour...

Thank you so much! I got hacked yesterday, and IP blocking is the only thing I can think of to do since it seems to be a VB vulnerability.

Big donation sent you way!

Visa issues blow. I live in Japan but am married to a Japanese chick. No dramas there. Take the plunge and make half-cast babies! Worked for me!

I gotta get this mod to work!

[DemOnstar]

Not been to Japan yet, was gonna go during November before the winter hits..
Got a girlfriend in China but as regards babies, naaghh!

Same error with me. I added:

// This to disable AdminCP Firewall.
define('CPFIREWALLDISABLEIPDENY', true);
// This to Disable Hooks
define('DISABLE_HOOKS',true);

in the config file. and when I go to the mod to enter my new ip I get this:

Fatal error: Class 'EmailAddressValidator' not found in XXXXXX/html/includes/adminfunctions_options.php(925) : runtime-created function on line 6

and I have NO SAVE BUTTON at the bottom of the screen!!!!!!! Help....

[pityocamptes]

Ok, took the HOOKS definition out and it works.... for anyone having the same issues. Just used the first definition (CPFIREWALL)...

[DemOnstar]

Just one gripe..

emails still come to the admin regardless of the ip's permitted access..

By that I mean an ip that is recorded as being ok, there is still a notification sent and it is the same notification as the 'attempted' access...

A user has attempted to log into your AdminCP using an unauthorized IP address. Their username is XXYYMoiety and their IP is xx.3.xx.73.

This IP matched the following forum user(s):

And this bit

This IP matched the following forum user(s):

never changes...

It is always, 'This IP matched the following forum user(s)'.

Aren't the brackets () meant to change something?

Works well otherwise...

[ozzy47]

No the brackets are meant to define singular or plural. user being singular, user(s) being plural.
