Disabled scripts in the 1-click Web Apps Installer and the Frameworks Installer

1-click installation tools are a great way to give web hosting users easy access to the usability and flexibility of open-source solutions.

Despite the enthusiasm and collaboration provided by dedicated communities in general, however, some open-source applications/ frameworks get abandoned by their authors who are no longer able to support them.

This leaves scripts open to vulnerabilities which might compromise the security of websites and projects using them.

For that reason, we’ve ceased support for the following scripts on our 1-click web apps installation platform:

b2evolution, Classfieds, Dolphin, fuzzylime (cms), Gallery3, HelpCenter Live, Imagin, Maian Events, MJguest, Movable Type, Nucleus, Open Ads, Open Realty, OS Commerce, phpCoin, phpFormGenerator, PHProjekt, PHPTickets, phpWebSite, Plogger, SugarCRM, WebCalendar, WebSiteBaker, Zazavi.

Following are the frameworks that we’ve disabled installation support for:

Akelos, Prado, PHPDevShell, Zoop.

***

The 1-click Web Apps and the Frameworks Installers are great free additions to the Web Hosting Control Panel that give your customers, both beginners and advanced users, the opportunity to kickstart their new projects from the comfort of their hosting dashboard.

By implementing a major update to the installation tools, we are aiming at keeping the tools in tune with the latest trends on the market and at maintaining the highest level of security for your customers.
