Products

• Carbon Black App Control (formerly Cb Protection)

Issue/Introduction

• Incorrect user listed as "Last Modified By" when enabling or disabling from the Event Rule Console Page. 
• Event triggered for the rule modification shows incorrect user. 
• Editing the rule directly works as intended.

Environment

Cause

The cause is an incorrect PHP value being passed to the database update call. 

Resolution

3. Before line number 89 add the code:

$user = $GLOBALS['B9User'];
$eventRules->last_modified_by_id = $user->user_id;

4. Save the changes. 
5. Open an administrative command prompt. 
6. Run the following command to restart IIS to commit the changes:
