Hi, Upon upgrading to the 56 build security advisor is sending out warning messages many of which do not apply. Is there a way to disable these messages from being sent prior to the 56 update as Check::SecurityAdvisorStateChange does not exist in the contact manager until 56? Thanks

  Hello, This behavior stems from the following case found in the version 56 Edge-Users Info Page The sooner in the development cycle we hear feedback on these changes, the more likely it is we can take action before a new version is published. There's a recent blog post you may find helpful at: The cPanel Development Process | cPanel Blog.

  is sending out warning messages many of which do not apply.

  
  Could you provide us with the specific warning messages that are false positives so we can open internal cases for each issue as needed? Thank you.

  It is possible to manually disable these notifications prior to 11.56. I came up with a quick script if you are interested:
  #!/bin/bash # Disable Security Advisor Notifications #Generate icontact preferences file if [ ! -f /var/cpanel/icontact_event_importance.json ]; then /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/bin/whostmgr2 ./saveeditcontact fi #Disable Security Advisor Notifications if [[ -f /var/cpanel/icontact_event_importance.json && ! `grep SecurityAdvisorStateChange /var/cpanel/icontact_event_importance.json` ]]; then sed -i 's/"Check":{/"Check":{"SecurityAdvisorStateChange":"0",/' /var/cpanel/icontact_event_importance.json elif [[ -f /var/cpanel/icontact_event_importance.json && `grep SecurityAdvisorStateChange /var/cpanel/icontact_event_importance.json` ]]; then sed -i -r 's/"SecurityAdvisorStateChange":"?[0-9]"?/"SecurityAdvisorStateChange":"0"/' /var/cpanel/icontact_event_importance.json fi
