[Plugin: KK I Like It] IP Address Blocked By Server

  • Yesterday, I tried to go to my website only to find out that my server’s firewall had blocked my ip address due to security issues. When I finally contacted somebody who could actually help me, he told me that it was triggered by the KK I Like It plugin. This happens when a request is made for a URI with jquery.cookie.js.

    Solution:

    1) Rename jquery.cookie.js to jquerycookie.js (taking out the middle dot)

    2) Edit the header template that loads it and again replace any instance of jquery.cookie.js with jquerycookie.js

    Haven’t actually tried it yet, but I disabled the plugin for now so I don’t get blocked by my server again.

    Yes it is. Took me completely by surprise. So far, I haven’t been able to find a solution that won’t trigger the ip block but will allow the plugin to still function properly.

    From what I’ve read from other sites, Apache mod_security blocks jquery.cookie.js by default. Apparently, it mistakes it for some sort of script attack. I’ve tried to get my web host to turn of this rule for my site, but they won’t do to security reasons (understandable…).

    Still searching for a solution. I will update everyone if I find a workable solution.
