Error 403 as soon as I activate OSM

    Hi,

    after activating OSM I get 403 errors as soon as I update any post or page.
    I installed OSM today for the first time. WordPress and all other plugins are up to date.
    Deactivating the security plugin or the htaccess file doesn’t make a change. The only way to start working again is to deactivate OSM. The file permissions are all set to 755.

    The error log shows
    ModSecurity: Access denied with code 403 (phase 2). Match of “rx (/products/index\\\\.php\\\\?gallery=|connector=\\\\.\\\\./\\\\.\\\\./connectors|/admin/(?:structure/views/|[a-z]+/(?:edit|add))|/phpthumb\\\\.php\\\\?((?:w|h)=[0-9]+&)?((?:w|h)=[0-9]+&)?src=\\\\.\\\\./.*(?:pics|uploads|images)|/site-(?:builder|content)/|/node/(?:[0-9]+/( …” against “REQUEST_URI” required. [file “/etc/httpd/modsec/10_asl_rules.conf”] [line “174”] [id “340007”] [rev “42”] [msg “Atomicorp.com WAF Rules: Generic Path Recursion denied”] [data “/../”] [severity “CRITICAL”] [hostname “www.ourdomain.de”] [uri “/wp-admin/post.php”] [unique_id “Wuysqg6-ctNgYJyFnRguHgAAAAU”]

    I read that others had this problem before, but I didn’t find an answer.

    @jenja: Can you provide your OSM shortcode. Does it occure also if you do not have any shortcode in the post / page? Looks like it is related to:

    Hi Mika,

    sorry for answering so late!! I addressed the webhoster and he informed that he was running ModSecurity as a web ppplication firewall for his webserver and that there would be one rule from Atomicorp (as you also wrote) that blocked using OSM. He deactivated this rule. Since then I can use OSM ??

    Thank you

    Kind regards

    I have this same problem. After installing OSM I get ‘”Forbidden” when i try to save any edited page or try to preview it.
    It seems a nice plugin and I’d like to use it. Can anyone help please?
