7.8.2 Usernames And Passwords
Jonathon Burnside
Today I started learning javscript but when I tried to create an extremely basic login feature it wouldn't work.so I'm trying to use an array to store the usernames and another for the passwords but when I enter them it comes up with wrong username or pass help.
Users who have a bundled MySQL database cannot upgrade directly from Uptime Infrastructure Monitor 7.7.3 (MySQL 5.5) to Uptime 7.8.6 or later (MySQL 8.0). You first must upgrade to Uptime 7.8.5 before continuing on to the Uptime 7.8.6 or later upgrade.
Users who have a clustered environment should continue using the Uptime 7.7.3 agent. A change in how the UUID is formatted in Uptime 7.8.x and later causes issues when monitoring clusters. For more information about how SQL Server cluster monitoring works in Uptime Infrastructure Monitor, see the IDERA Community article, Monitor MS-SQL Clusters and Always-On Availability Groups.
Users who manually updated Apache/PHP/OpenSSL in previous Uptime Infrastructure Monitor release using these instructions and who want to upgrade to Uptime Infrastructure Monitor 7.8.2 or later, must perform the following steps before upgrading:
Users upgrading from Uptime Infrastructure Monitor 7.8.0 to 7.8.2 or later who use MSSQL as a database backend should check their [uptime install folder]\uptime.conf and take note of the drivers used. If the sqljdbc4.jar driver is not being used, nothing needs to be done. Look for:
If dbDriverClass is uncommented, you should comment it out prior to running the upgrade. If you wish to continue using the MSSQL native JDBC driver, you should copy sqljdbc4.jar out of the [uptime install folder]\core folder prior to upgrading as it will get removed during the upgrade. If this task is not performed, you will notice that the upgrade program fails to reinstall the MSSQL JDBC driver and the upgrade will break.
You must download the sqljdbc4.jar driver for MSSQL ( -us/download/details.aspx?id=11774 and put it in the uptime/core directory after the upgrade, uncomment the line we commented prior, and restart Uptime data collector (core in Linux) service to pick up the change.
Uptime Infrastructure Monitor 7.9 introduced the use of encrypted passwords in the uptime.conf and uptime-controller.conf files. In order to change the default Uptime username and password, you must first change them in the datastore (i.e. MySQL, MSSQL, or Oracle). Then use the UptimeConfigUtility tool to apply the changes to the uptime.conf and uptime-controller.conf files.
If you have any expiration check service monitors in your environment, please verify that they are working correctly after the upgrade is complete. If you notice an error with SSLv3 handshaking in the status output, please re-create the service monitor.
The Uptime Infrastructure Monitor upgrade process is as follows: Some gadgets were adjusted for 7.8.x and later and will require your attention if you are running on an MS-SQL or ORACLE database back end.
If the database and monitoring station exist on the same machine, then drivers are already installed. Only DSN will need to be created. Also, the exact name as specified in these steps must be used for the connection or the gadgets will not work. If you wish to use a different connection name, you must edit the uptimeDB.php file accordingly.
If you are having trouble with installing just the Oracle InstantClient & ODBC, the likely issue is you are missing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64) that includes the DLL that this driver needs. Another option is to install these drivers as part of the Oracle Data Access Components which is a bundle of Oracle drivers compared to the zips mentioned above. This bundle can be found on the Oracle website at
Linux based monitoring stations will require the unixODBC package to be installed. This package should include the /usr/lib64/libtdsodbc.so.0 SQL Server ODBC Driver needed for MSSQL/SQLserver. Which is also the example provided in uptimeDB.php
Visit Uptime Infrastructure Monitor's Knowledge Base for the latest comprehensive listing of currently supported monitoring station, database, and agent platforms. The following tables summarize platform support changes for Uptime Infrastructure Monitor since the previous release. The following icons are used to describe the type of support available in a version:
Uptime Infrastructure Monitor is available on the latest versions of Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Microsoft Edge. For an expanded list of supported web browsers, see Supported Browsers in Uptime Infrastructure Monitor.
Web Transaction Monitor is Java-based and does NOT work with modern browsers. Creating new monitors is disabled. This monitor works only if your UIM installation already has previously-captured Web Transaction monitor recordings. This does not affect previously-configured Web Transaction Monitors.
A complete, first-time deployment of Uptime Infrastructure Monitor and its agents is a straightforward process. Refer to the Installation and Quick Start Guide for complete instructions on performing a first-time installation.
For Uptime Infrastructure Monitor 7.8.5 and later, the vcruntime140.dll must be installed prior to installing or upgrading. If the .dll is not available during the upgrade or installation process, you may receive a message that the procedure failed.
To fix this issue:
Users who upgrade to Uptime Infrastructure Monitor 7.8.5 and later may experience issues as a result of the Uptime version number in the Database version (viewed by clicking Help > About Uptime) not changing to the proper version number.
This issue only affects you if you run Uptime in UI-only mode where the user interface and datastore are running on two different servers. When starting the UptimeCollector, there is a check to see whether the Uptime version is the same as the Uptime version in the database on the node with the database. When this check fails, the UptimeCollector fails to start on the UI-only node, resulting in a failure to launch the UI.
"The server-side authentication level policy does not allow the user [username] SID ([SID]) from address 111.22.33.44 to activate DCOM server. Please raise the activation authentication level at least to RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_PKT_INTEGRITY in client application.
The lmhostid returns the value '000000000000' on some occasions. This issue results from Uptime Infrastructure Monitor expecting the primary Network Interface Card (NIC) device name of eth0. If the name is not eth0, issues can result when registering your license.
Power Linux Agents have a dependency lm_sensors.so, which is part of lm_sensors-libs package(rpm) on RHEL. If not present, you can obtain this file by running 'yum install lm_sensors-libs' on RHEL platform.
Users who update from Uptime Infrastructure Monitor 7.8.0 to 7.8.3 may notice that the Uptime Agent does not appear in the Windows Control Panel. If this occurs, note that the automatic installation of the Agent did not occur and you must manually start the installation.
The Uptime Infrastructure Monitor Linux installer assumes Apache should be or is installed in /usr/local/apache, but it checks where Uptime is installed. This causes the user to have two different install paths for Uptime, which causes Apache to fail.
When uninstalling Uptime Infrastructure Monitor, the uninstall does not automatically stop or kill the stunnel.exe process. In order to delete the Uptime directory during uninstallation, the user first must kill the stunnel.exe process.
Legacy code used in implementing the Wait I/O report for elements using a Windows agent is causing the report to display 0 instead of a proper value. In comparison, the same stat returned when using a Linux agent shows the correct value. This issue will be addressed in a future release.
Credential stuffing is used to perform account takeover attacks through automated injection of breached username/password pairs. This method uses stolen email and password logins from other sources to gain unauthorized access to accounts. Attackers leverage large numbers of leaked credentials in an automated fashion against numerous websites, in an attempt to take over user accounts with credential reuse. The attacker acquires these spilled usernames and passwords from a website breach, and uses an account checker (such as SentryMBA) to test the stolen credentials against many websites. Successful logins allow the attacker to take over the account matching the stolen credentials.
The Barracuda ABP system uses a cloud-based database of breached credentials to validate incoming login requests. When a match for the incoming credentials is found, the Barracuda Web Application Firewall is configured to alert the admin and / or block such login requests.
The Barracuda Web Application Firewall does not transmit the complete username or password to the Barracuda ABP cloud for validation. The username/password is hashed, and only the first 16 characters of the hash is transmitted to the cloud for validation.
In this type of protection, the Barracuda Web Application Firewall checks the incoming usernames and passwords independently on the databases. Since this is binded to the Brute Force Prevention feature, the Brute Force counter starts and identifies credential spraying attempts when either the username or the password matches the databases. However, if both the username and password match the databases, then the attack is detected immediately and a follow-up action is enforced.
Today's release brings a number of improvements to file attachments for 1Password accounts. We've also made a number of improvements to browser integration, making sure 1Password is filling fields as deftly as possible.
