• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Question Lockdown: filwrpr: /dev/mem,kmem,port is restricted

hbongers

New Pleskian
Lately I've been seeing a lot of log messages (hundreds daily) like this one:
Nov 8 10:18:14 plesk kernel: Lockdown: filwrpr: /dev/mem,kmem,port is restricted; see man kernel_lockdown.7

This is the only Plesk server with these messages.
I've installed a fully new one for testing but it doesn't show these messages either.

This is an Almalinux 9.2 machine on vmware.
SecureBoot is enabled as is SELinux.

Can anyone give me a clue where to look?
 
This issue is not linked to Plesk. I have moved it to "Open Topics".
Please see kernel_lockdown(7) - Linux manual page on the "Kernel Lockdown" situation.
I suggest asking the question on unix.stackexchange.com, as you are more likely to get appropriate assistance there.

Edit: Wrong information here.

@hbongers I must apologize. I did not pay attention to the detail, in this case the filename "filwrpr". A Plesk tech expert pointed this out and told me that this is a Plesk file, so the issue is Plesk-related. What we don't know though is what is happening. It could still be an issue with the operating system, specifically the virtualization environment.

Would you please send me - in a private message - details:
- Your operating system and version
- The VMWare type and version
- Your Plesk license number PLSK. ... ... ...
We can then check how to proceed with this case.
