Changes:
– NOTE: If you are using the cxs ModSecurity hook and ModSecurity v2.6, you must now specify the ModSecurity configuration setting SecTmpDir. If you have not set SecTmpDir in your ModSecurity configuration, then you need to add the following on its own line before or after the ModSecurity cxs line: “SecTmpDir /tmp” and then restart httpd. The file you need to add this to, if not already present, on a cPanel server is: /usr/local/apache/conf/modsec2.user.conf
