    Centmin Mod's CSF Firewall forked mirror version v16.33 beta release is available for Centmin Mod LEMP stack users to test on spare dev/non-production servers. It's totally opt-in and not an automatic update.


    CSF v16.33 is the first version to start updating/fixing the original CSF Firewall code from v14.24/v15.00 GPLv3 release. Some of the updates are related to improvements to CSF Firewall v16.31/v16.32 https://community.centminmod.com/threads/csf-firewall-v16-31-security-update-for-centmin-mod.32533/.

    If folks have spare test AlmaLinux/Rocky Linux 8, 9, 10 based servers and want to help test this beta release before general public release via auto updates, here's the commands to upgrade install CSF Firewall v16.33 - it won't overwrite your existing CSF Firewall settings.
