the websites on the server are run under apache user. And if any account of the user is compromised, The attacker can gain access to all the websites and users on the sentora.
All you need is a back-connect script. And you can change files of any website in any directory or any user.
isn't this protected/locked in by suhosin?

Well, it has suhosin installed. But that is a PHP extension, right? I can see that in phpinfo.
But the problem is not about PHP extensions. It's about file permissions. Hosting accounts are poorly managed.

 Let alone the user panel bugs there are numerous bugs regarding to Server security and user privacy.
I was just testing my Sentora server and I'm really, really disheartened right now.

ahsan can you let me know of a viable way to gain access to any directory by having a single user credentials?

No response yet.

Is this in the FTP client (File Manager) at the bottom of your control panel your talking about?
 
Can you shed some more light on this….?

I see your point. But this is exactly the same issue I talked with you earlier, it has nothing to do with the apache user.
