      We started upgrading our pfSenses to 2.8.1 (from 2.7.2). After the upgrade we experienced a problem when using pfSsh.php by a dedicated user to check the status of a specific service.

      When I'm logged in as root and I call

      /usr/local/sbin/pfSsh.php playback svc status unbound

      from CLI, I get:

      Service unbound is running.

      When I'm logged in as user "monitoring" and I call

      /usr/local/sbin/pfSsh.php playback svc status unbound

      from CLI, I get:

      Service unbound is stopped.

      Weird behavior. In 2.7.2 that worked flawlessly. I've no clue, what's wrong...

        Same behavior here. Presumably it's the result of some permissions hardending. A user not privileged to modify an elevated service should not be able to determine the status of said service.
