List of current bugs discussion

I ran Diagnostics and it didn’t report an error but the report showed the same error for cmc.comodo.com:

CMC Status=“Failed” State=“WARNING” Hostname=“cmc.comodo.com” Port=“443” IP=“178.255.85.135” Protocol=“HTTPS”/

It is a red herring. The domain cmc.comodo.com is used for Comodo Message Center so I assume it is only used to send messages to the users.

YrijKhab’s CIS report also shows and error for Inspect packet filter driver.

YrijKhab I suggest to do a clean install of CIS to get the problem with Inspect fixed. Without Inspect working CIS cannot filter network traffic. Don’t forget to export your active configuration before the clean install.

Good time. What does a clean installation of CIS mean? I’ve already completely uninstalled and reinstalled CIS several times - the error remains

Hi YrijKhab,

Kindly use the below ciscleanuptool to uninstall cis completely then install cis newly. (Note: Use respective ciscleanuptool bit type according to your system bit type )

Hello. The link “http://download.comodo.com/cis/download/installs/ciscleanuptool/ciscleanuptool_x64.exe” does not download the file. I already used the CIS cleaner, before reinstalling it earlier.

@YrijKhab Did you recently install an application that installs a network driver? That could account for a problem with Inspect driver of CIS

Hi YrijKhab,

We could able to download the file.
If you are using any vpn kindly disable and download the file.

Hi all,

Below are the bugs(From list of current bugs) which are tested and couldn’t able to reproduce in the CIS beta v12.3.1.8104 Beta.
1.Silent mode firewall silently blocks network access for unrecognized applications and does not log the block
4. HIPS/Sandbox bypass with SetVolumeMountPoint and DeleteVolumeMountPoint. The fix would be to hook the SetVolumeMountPoint and DeleteVolumeMountPoint WinAPI functions and treat it as a form of direct disk access like CIS does for the DefineDosDevice API function. That way you get a HIPS alert for direct disk access and it would be auto blocked when run in containment anytime an application calls these functions.
6. Embedded-code detection for misexec.exe does not work so msiexec.exe /I will not be detected.
15. Can’t paste IPv4 address in global and application rules, it only works in network zones.
16. Autorun analyzer and killswitch do not perform file rating lookup of files.
17. AV still scans executable files even when the executable is listed under scan exclusions
20. HIPS rules will get corrupted by being completely erased when a new rule is being created during system shutdown, such as when HIPS is in training mode or create rules for trusted applications is enabled in HIPS settings.
22. Contained applications can add/remove/change user accounts and groups, prior versions did not allow such action.
24. Microsoft Edge can not open any website or page when sandboxed .
25. Sometimes the CIS tray notification icon does not render and leaves an empty space. Topic link: Comodo Firewall systray icon invisible [M2419]
26. Windows security center does not always recognize CIS being active or enabled. Topic link: Windows security center does not always recognize CIS
28. CIS will constantly inform of a new update is available even when the latest version is installed, happens after updating to a new version using the internal program updater. Various posts reporting this issue scattered throughout, can’t be bothered to find all previous posts, but most recent topic here: Comodo version 12.2.2.2.8012 wants to install over and over and over again??
35. The Anti-virus will not scan files larger than 40 MB even when the setting “Limit maximum file size to” in the scan profile is disabled. The AV should scan all files regardless of size unless the option is used to limit the maximum file size that the AV should scan.
39. Firewall blocks outgoing connection requests for trusted applications at system startup if they attempt network access before CIS UI is loaded(cis tray and alerts UI processes) causing many blocked events in the firewall log for those trusted rated applications.
40. High CPU usage of cmdagent.exe process when a RAM drive is in use. Topic link.
Kindly check and let us know your feedback

FYI: Reproduced bugs are reported to the dev team and they are working on it.
There are few bugs which doesn’t have enough information to reproduce, however we are testing on it. We will update those bugs which needs more information to reproduce.

Hello C.O.M.O.D.O_RT,

The bugs you mention have these bugs been fixed or is it just that your team isn’t able or capable to reproduce those bugs on your end ???

With same CIS code base it sounds unbelievable that your team isn’t able or capable to reproduce these ancient bugs which have been reported and well documented by so many CIS users and mods over the past decades.

I have the impression that Comodo likes to run in circles to avoid fixing these ancient bugs.

Any feedback from staff on above matter regarding sweeping bugs under the rug?
