Hello all!,
I'm getting this security warning from webmin, somthing I didn't have with older version so I'm a bit stuck on why?
Warning! Webmin has detected that the program https://192.168.1.15:12321/webmin/edit_referers.cgi was linked to from an unknown URL, which appears to be outside the Webmin server. This may be an attempt to trick your server into executing a dangerous command.
If your browser does not send the Referer header needed, you can turn off this check as follows :
- Login to Webmin normally.
- Go to the Webmin Configuration module.
- Click on the Trusted Referrers icon.
- Check the Trust links from unknown referrers box, and click Save.
Alternately, you can configure Webmin to allow links from unknown referers by :
- Login as root, and edit the /etc/webmin/config file.
- Find the line referers_none=1 and change it to referers_none=0.
- Save the file.
The webmin configuration module gives me this error trying to fix this error...lol and so I logged in with putty and edited the config file under /etc/webmin/config and it still give the error, I rebooted just got grins and no luck, any clues?
I"m running a vbox on windows 8 x64 with a bridged adapter and accessing from the host pc.
Thanks
Dwaine
