Hello,

 

We are using BaseX 10.5 via its HTTP service in a corporate environment.

 

We have an automated Qualys Agent that does a vulnerability scan of that
server with the BaseX.

Qualys Agent scan process includes web sites related tests such as
Cross-Site Scripting, SQL Injection, etc.  

The rapid nature of the Qualys Agent requests effectively gives us a DoS
attack on the eclipse.jetty.server.

It cannot process so many requests and goes down.

 

In the meantime, our solution is to restart BaseX HTTP service manually via
basexhttp.bat.

 

Question: is it possible to somehow configure the eclipse.jetty.server so it
will be able to sustain the Qualys Agent vulnerability scan?

 

 

Regards,
Yitzhak Khabinsky
