I'm currently experimenting with the Apache security module (application firewall) - another thing I should've added years ago. Theoretically it should protect from standard/simple hacking techniques and various service abuse. Please let me know if something stops working.

Checked the logs... I definitely should have done it before 😂

Guys, let me know if any of your actions get denied. I've just disabled two security filters, which blocked post quoting. Yeah, everything "better" comes with a price tag...

If someone got "Forbidden - you are not allowed to access this resource" while uploading a file to the forum - this should be fixed now. It was a false positive for the "MULTIPART_UNMATCHED_BOUNDARY - Multipart parser detected a possible unmatched boundary" security rule.

The forum is barely responding today - no ideas why yet. Checking everywhere.

For some reason after some time PHP stops replying to Apache...
