How to allow access to WHM after being blocked by cphulk

To add your IP by clicking “cPHulk Brute Force Protection” from the WHM main menu, then click the “White/Black List Management” tab. Enter your IP in the text box under “White List (Trusted IP List)” then click the [Quick Add] button.

Once your IP is registered on the white list, you will no longer receive the dreaded “password failed” error from WHM when trying to log in as root.
