    Hello :) You can review the log files in the /var/cpanel/updatelogs directory to see if any packages were updating during the last cPanel update. Thank you.

    Hello, You may also want to check the /var/log/yum.log file for updates to those packages.

    I'm away from the office for a few days. However I got another one this morning. ****Log opened from cPanel Update (upcp) - Slave (27193) at Thu Dec**** 4****05:12:01****2014 [20141204.051201]******** Detected cron=1 (cron mode set from command line) [20141204.051201]******** 1% complete [20141204.051201]******** Running Standardized hooks [20141204.051201]******** 2% complete [20141204.051201]******** mtime on upcp is****1416318445(Tue Nov 18****13:47:25****2014) followed by a list longer than both mine and your arms.

    I get similar messages quite often, and even looking at the (huge) update logs does not convince me the changes are legitimate. So if I look into last night's log, which triggered the warning for me, I can only see these related to e.g. crontab: Retrieving and staging /cpanelsync/11.46.0.19/binaries/linux-c6-i386/bin/jail_safe_crontab.bz2 Set permissions on /usr/local/cpanel/bin/jail_safe_crontab-cpanelsync to 0755 Does this indicate that crontab was updated? I have hundreds of lines like these in the log, concerning other programs, but I didn't get a checksum fail for those. That's why I'm relactant to think that this is ok.

    You should also review /var/log/yum.log as cPanelPeter mentioned to see if your system packages were updated. Retrieving and staging /cpanelsync/11.46.0.19/binaries/linux-c6-i386/bin/jail_safe_crontab.bz2 Set permissions on /usr/local/cpanel/bin/jail_safe_crontab-cpanelsync to 0755 Does this indicate that crontab was updated?
    It indicates the /usr/local/cpanel/bin/jail_safe_crontab file was retrieved from our update servers. Thank you.

    Thanks. I forgot to mention that I always look at yum.log but I usually only find some of the updated items there. So, today I got a new mail about these:
    /usr/bin/certutil: FAILED /usr/bin/cmsutil: FAILED /usr/bin/crlutil: FAILED /usr/bin/modutil: FAILED /usr/bin/pk12util: FAILED /usr/bin/signtool: FAILED /usr/bin/signver: FAILED /usr/bin/ssltap: FAILED /bin/passwd: FAILED
    And I can only find references to passwd in cpanel's update log. And these in yum.log:
    Dec 04 23:14:24 Updated: nss-util-3.16.2.3-2.el6_6.i686 Dec 04 23:14:25 Updated: nss-sysinit-3.16.2.3-3.el6_6.i686 Dec 04 23:14:26 Updated: nss-3.16.2.3-3.el6_6.i686 Dec 04 23:14:27 Updated: nss-tools-3.16.2.3-3.el6_6.i686
    Is there another way I should be searching with?

    You may want to consult with a qualified system administrator or security specialist if you are concerned about the security of your server. While it's likely a false positive, there's no way to determine if you have been hacked or not based on the output that you have provided. Thank you.
