The PEAR server is in a stopped state until safety is confirmed. Its maintainers found that there was a security breach such as an attack on the server “PEAR” which provides a library available in PHP.
Users who downloaded and installed PEAR PHP in the last 6 months from the official website of the PEAR pear-php.net, were may be infected so you should quickly download the Github version and install it. If they downloadeded “go-pear.phar” file after December 20, 2018 are asking for confirmation that the file has not been altered, and if the corresponding file was downloaded before December 20, 2018 Even if PEAR installation is executed, PEAR warns the user “It is prudent to check the system”.
Below is official website of PEAR. As of January 24, 2019, the server is still down. Also, the official blog that details are written is also downed and can not be accessed.
You can use the below steps to check the go-pear.phar file’s vulnerability.
Login via SSH to your server where you are currently using PEAR.
Go to the directory where you currently downloaded the go-pear.phar file, most likely your user’s home directory.
# cd ~user
Check the md5sum value.
# md5sum go-pear.phar
The above command will return value like this. 1e26d9dd3110af79a9595f1a77a82de7
The infected file has the above hash value. If you see this value returned, you should proceed to disable the previous PEAR installation files and folders.
Recently many of our customers had asked us how they can disable AutoSSL notifications to the end user cpanel account emails. So we guys made a reasearch on this and got the cpanel forum link which this discussion was already going on and saw a script.
Save the below to /root/autossldisable.sh, chmod 755 autossldisable.sh and then run it with ./autossldisable.sh
#!/bin/bash
cd /var/cpanel/users
for user in *
do
cpapi2 --user=$user CustInfo savecontactinfo notify_autossl_renewal=0 notify_autossl_renewal_coverage=0 notify_autossl_expiry_coverage=0 notify_autossl_expiry=0 notify_ssl_expiry=0
done
This will disable 5 AutoSSL notices off for every user on the server.
Hope this helps
Update : Good news is that by Cpanel 70 version, you will have these options available at Manage Autossl section in the WHM
Reference and Courtsey for the above script : forum.cpanel.net

Critical Intel CPU Bug – Meltdown and Spectre Vulnerabilities
CPU hardware implementations are vulnerable to side-channel attacks referred to as Meltdown and Spectre.Earlier this week, serious security problem – CPU Bug has been found in the Intel/AMD/ARM CPUs. According to various teams including Google Project Zero, CPU data cache timing can be abused efficiently to leak information out of mis-speculated execution, leading to (at worst) arbitrary virtual memory read vulnerabilities across local security boundaries in various contexts. These vulnerabilities are known by name ‘Meltdown’ and ‘Spectre’.
