Overview
A critical vulnerability in the Linux kernel was announced on Jan. 14, 2016, by security researchers at Perception Point. The vulnerability has existed since 2012, and is present in all devices running version 3.8 of the Linux kernel and higher.
Liquid Web has introduced a new feature designed to simplify the removal of errant IP address blocks in the firewall, and allow customers to quickly remove their own address from within their Manage dashboard. In this manner, customers can remove blocks on their IP addresses even when they are unable to access WebHost Manager itself due to the block.
