Thanks

When my connection is lost, Comodo doesn’t show the animation from systray icon because there’s no connections. I think it might be the case, does it?
Recently found issues with firewall in CIS. May be it was presend in previous version as well
-
When i switch firewall mode from “Safe Mode” to “Custom Ruleset”, already established connections from applications(which have no rule set in firewall) are not terminated and blocked by comodo. From what i remember comodo used to terminate those connections.
(I set firewall to block connections instead of asking in firewall settings(after installing comodo every time). If needed config file attached as well) -
Incoming connections are not blocked when the rule was set as “Outgoing Only”(at least for anydesk portable,with which i noticed the issue. With the current version of CIS at least, anyone with anydesk credentials is able to connect to my computer even if i set permission as “Outgoing Only”).
Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. OS Build 16299.192.
I tested with eMule and setting the rule to outgoing only keeps outgoing traffic out. I am on Win 10 Insider 17063. Are there other applications that you could test to see if they show the same behaviour?
These days when you are not using a rule CIS will apply trusted application rule rather than the outgoing only rule of longer ago. I think I have reported it a couple of years ago. It is a problem because it will allow propagation of malware over the local network.
Tested with teamviewer. Same result.
Even then “Custom Ruleset” was supposed to block application without custom rules if i understand correctly?.
Thank you for confirming.
Even then "Custom Ruleset" was supposed to block application without custom rules if i understand correctly?.That's my understanding as well.
Custom Ruleset:
The firewall applies ONLY the custom security configurations and network traffic rules specified by the user. New users may want to think of this as the ‘Do Not Learn’ setting because the firewall does not attempt to learn the behavior of any applications. Nor does it automatically create network traffic rules for those applications. You will receive alerts every time there is a connection attempt by an application - even for applications on the Comodo Safe list (unless, of course, you have specified rules and policies that instruct the firewall to trust the application’s connection attempt).
My expersince with “Outgoing Only”,
“Outgoing Only” will block any incoming request initiated by other (e,g when a friend try to connect to your svencoop local server, a connection atempt is logged.)
“Outgoing Only” will allow incoming data if the your program have initated the connection (e,g Web browser configured with Outgoing Only rule)
Hi,
My Computer still run 10.0.2.6420 of comodo firewall, there is any option to update it or i have to install the new version from Comodo installer ??
We will be issuing updates tomorrow, 11th Jan, 2018.
Okay i will wait the new updates, thanks guys for ur hard work ;D ;D
In my case this is not working. If an application such as imo messenger(in my case) has already established a connection, changing from “Safe Mode” to “Custom Ruleset” mode in firewall does not not terminate the connection. It was not so in some previous versions i checked.
You mean, even blocking incoming connections with stealth port wizard is not sufficient to block those connections?
Works on mine: Win10 Prox64 with CIS in Proactive
Outlook is connected > change Firewall to Custom > immediate block and Firewall warning as attached
If you are in a lan and have trusted the local network CIS will allow incoming and outgoing connections. and Cis read the global rules from the top and down.
And the Trusted network rule is place above the Stealth port: Block incoming connections.
So CIS should block any incomming request from all other places exept the local network
Old Help page, but i think it still correct. with a nice picture, (2nd pic)
Thunderbird was blocked as well during testing. But imo desktop app is constantly connected with an ip address until app is closed. May be that has something to do with the observed behaviour. To check further, i used protonvpn free. After connecting to a location, i changed firewall mode to “Custom Ruleset”. Proton vpn had no rule created in firewall. But i am able to browse web without interruption even after the firewall mode change.
Comodo global rules in my system attached. I am not trusting local network as seen here.
With PureVPN, as soon as I change to Custom, it immediately blocks and gives an svchost.exe warning with the particular IP, plus one for the DNS Server I use. I have a trusted LAN and haven’t changed the Global Rules at all. I do have Stealth Ports set
I rechecked after resetting global rules with stealth port wizard, unticked firewall setting to suppress alerts, connected vpn and some time after changed to “Custom Ruleset”.After few seconds, connection request for imo desktop app came. I blocked the connection request. But imo status is still online and already established tcp connection is not closed. Vpn not blocked as well. When new version comes, i can check the issue with default proactive security config as well as you told. Hope it was just a setting corruption or installation issue then.
Also in the meantime if any additional info needed please ask.
