Allowlisted IP addresses

    Good morning,

    I just installed Wordfence on my WordPress site. By configuring it, I noticed that an IP address was automatically registered on Allowlisted IP addresses that bypass all rules.

    I can’t delete it.

    I did some tests by uninstalling the wp-rocket plugin, and the whitelisted IP address disappeared.

    I would like to ensure that this will not cause a security breach on my site. Could you help me ?

    THANKS.

    Bonjour,

    Je viens d’installer Wordfence sur mon site WordPress. En le configurant, j’ai remarqué qu’une adresse IP était automatiquement enregistrée sur les adresses IP autorisées qui contournaient toutes les règles.

    Je ne peux pas le supprimer.

    J’ai fait quelques tests en désinstallant le plugin wp-rocket, et l’adresse IP sur liste blanche a disparu.

    Je voudrais m’assurer que cela ne provoquera pas de faille de sécurité sur mon site. Pourriez-vous m’aider ?

    MERCI.

    Hi @mabprinter, thanks for getting in touch.

    We have seen cases before of some hosts enforcing an allowlisted IP here that returns after a delete and save operation on this page, so it’s not totally out of the question to see.

    //Edit:

    I found this documentation that may be relevant from your description https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/126-using-wordfence-with-wp-rocket

    Many thanks,
    Peter.
