Bugzilla – Bug 7138
Problem with security settings
Last modified: 2009-07-31 10:17:10 UTC
I was messing with my Allowed IP Addresses and incorrectly entered them as 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.* missing out the comma between the two addresses. This was saved ok, however when I later restarted the server it failed to start, running at 99%cpu and repeatedly throwing out the messages - [11:53:59.2737] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::slimproto_accept (165) unauthorized host, accept denied: 192.168.1.68 [11:53:59.2761] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::slimproto_accept (165) unauthorized host, accept denied: 192.168.1.67 [11:53:59.2784] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::slimproto_accept (165) unauthorized host, accept denied: 192.168.1.75 [11:53:59.2806] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::slimproto_accept (165) unauthorized host, accept denied: 192.168.1.70 [11:53:59.2827] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::slimproto_accept (165) unauthorized host, accept denied: 192.168.1.68 [11:53:59.2849] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::slimproto_accept (165) unauthorized host, accept denied: 192.168.1.67 [11:53:59.2871] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::slimproto_accept (165) unauthorized host, accept denied: 192.168.1.70 It was an easy mistake to make and was soon fixed by editing the prefs but I don't think a simple mistake should be allowed to bring the system down so easily.

note to myself: need to add a validator in Slim::Utils::Prefs
change 17849 - add validation for allowedHosts value
(In reply to comment #2) > change 17849 - add validation for allowedHosts value > Craig: if you see this happen again, please reopen the bug
