Rob Godfrey updated QPID-6217:
------------------------------
Status: Reviewable (was: In Progress)
> Java broker should not accept HTTP TRACE requests
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: QPID-6217
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6217
> Project: Qpid
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Java Broker
> Affects Versions: 0.30
> Reporter: David Lovely
> Assignee: Rob Godfrey
> Attachments: TRACE.patch
>
>
> The QPID Java broker responds to HTTP TRACE requests with a response code of
> 200. A common practice for better security is to return a 403 or 405 code
> for TRACE requests. By default Jetty version 6.1 and greater disable this
> but the embedded Jetty server in the QPID broker is allowing TRACE requests
> to be processed. Attached is a patch that returns 403 when TRACE is used.
> For example,
> Current reponse from a TRACE command:
> curl -v -X TRACE localhost:8080
> > TRACE / HTTP/1.1
> > User-Agent: curl/7.19.7 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.7
> > NSS/3.13.6.0 zlib/1.2.3 libidn/1.18 libssh2/1.4.2
> > Host: localhost:8080
> > Accept: */*
