Introduces an opt-in reverse DNS management subsystem backed by a PowerDNS
Authoritative HTTP API. Runs via a companion WHMCS addon module
(modules/addons/VirtFusionDns) that holds settings and a Test Connection
page; the server module reads those settings from tbladdonmodules and
short-circuits when the addon is absent or disabled, so provisioning is
unaffected for operators who don't use the feature.
Lifecycle hooks:
- createAccount creates PTRs for every assigned IP (forward DNS must
already resolve to the IP — FCrDNS enforcement)
- renameServer updates only PTRs whose content matched the old hostname,
preserving client-custom records
- terminateAccount deletes all PTRs before the local state is purged
- TestConnection merges PowerDNS health check with the existing VirtFusion
check
- A DailyCronJob hook reconciles missing PTRs additive-only (never
overwrites)
Client UI: new "Reverse DNS" panel on the service overview with one
editable PTR input per assigned IP, per-row status badges, and
forward-DNS rejection on save. Admin services tab gets a parallel
widget with Reconcile (additive) and Reconcile (force reset) buttons.
New subsystem at lib/PowerDns/:
- Client.php PowerDNS API wrapper (X-API-Key, listZones/getZone/
patchRRset/notifyZone), auto-NOTIFY on successful PATCH
- Config.php Loads + decrypts addon settings from tbladdonmodules
- IpUtil.php PTR-name generation (IPv4 + IPv6), zone matching,
RFC 2317 classless parsing
- Resolver.php FCrDNS verification via dns_get_record with CNAME-chain
following and per-(hostname,ip) caching
- PtrManager.php Orchestrator: syncServer, deleteForServer, listPtrs,
setPtr, reconcile, reconcileAll
Security hardening helpers added to Module and applied to the rDNS
endpoints:
- requirePost() HTTP method gate (405 on non-POST mutations)
- requireSameOrigin() Origin/Referer check against WHMCS host (CSRF
defence against cross-site form POST)
- requireServiceStatus() tblhosting.domainstatus filter (Active for
writes, Active+Suspended for reads)
RFC 2317 classless delegations (e.g. 64/64.113.0.203.in-addr.arpa.)
supported with alignment validation: rejects misaligned start addresses
that don't correspond to any real delegation boundary.
PowerDNS zone IDs containing '/' are URL-encoded as '=2F' per the
PowerDNS API convention. PATCH success triggers PUT /zones/{id}/notify
so slaves pick up the SOA-bumped serial immediately.
Includes IPv4 + IPv6 support, per-IP write rate limit (10s), fresh
IP-ownership re-verification on every client write (defends against
stale-ownership after IP reassignment), and audit logging of every
successful edit to the WHMCS module log.

- Auto-create 'Initial Operating System' and 'Initial SSH Key' custom fields
via Database::ensureCustomFields() on module load, eliminating the manual
modify.sql step
- Delete modify.sql (no longer needed)
- Add try/catch blocks around every DB operation and API call across all PHP
files per CLAUDE.md error handling rules
- Add comprehensive PHPDoc to all classes, methods, and properties
- Set up Laravel Pint (laravel/pint) with Laravel-style preset for consistent
code formatting across the codebase
- Add git pre-commit hook (hooks/pre-commit) that runs Pint on staged PHP
files, auto-installed via Composer post-install/post-update scripts
- Simplify README installation to a single copy-paste command

- Add isset() guards before count() on ipv4/ipv6 arrays in ServerResource
to prevent PHP 8.0+ TypeError
- Add null checks after getWhmcsService() and getCP() in 18 Module methods
and 5 ModuleFunctions methods to prevent fatal null dereference errors
- Add null guards for $whmcsService and $cp in admin.php impersonateServerOwner
- Fix HTTP status codes throughout admin.php (404, 400, 500, 502 instead of 200)
- Guard ConfigureService methods against $this->cp === false
- Use null coalescing for customfields access in initServerBuild
- Check API response code in initServerBuild instead of always returning true
- Replace exit() with RuntimeException in Curl.php
- Change catch(Exception) to catch(Throwable) in hooks.php for PHP 8.0+
- Open VNC window before AJAX call to avoid popup blocker
