VortexPanel v3.4.5 — Reliability Hardening
v3.4.5 — Reliability Hardening
This release is the result of a full functional test pass against real
running services (not just code review) across Mail, DNS, Cron, and
Fail2ban — plus verification passes on ModSecurity WAF, UFW Firewall,
and Docker deploy.
Fixed
- Cron Jobs — disabling a job made it silently vanish from the job
list instead of showing as disabled, with no way to re-enable it
through the UI - Mail — new mail accounts had their maildir created with the wrong
directory structure, silently breaking every new mailbox's ability to
receive mail - DNS — zones created through the panel were written to disk
correctly but never actually declared to BIND9, meaning every zone
created through VortexPanel was completely unservable - Fail2ban — website anti-CC/anti-scan jails were silently
monitoring the wrong log source entirely due to an unset backend,
meaning they never actually detected or banned anything
Verified, no issues found
- ModSecurity WAF — full validation/escaping/rollback chain confirmed
working against a real ModSecurity engine - UFW Firewall — confirmed working down to actual kernel-level iptables
rules - Docker deploy — command generation confirmed correct, including
special-character handling in environment variables
