------------------------------
Summary: Trafficserver DOS w/ Stats over HTTP Plugin
Key: TS-3931
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-3931
Project: Traffic Server
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Plugins
Reporter: zxcvbn4038
Reproducible w/ trafficserver 5.3.1 and Stats over HTTP Plugin plugin.
1) Add to plugin.config:stats_over_http.so
bf71886a308c1cf70cf05b6c5efbdd626a1156cc
2) Restart traffic server
3) Load this URL (yes, its the wrong URL): http://server_ip:port/_stats
Within 15 minutes the server will have consumed ~1.5K connections, trying to
load this URL. Connections will continue to be consumed until
proxy.config.net.connections_throttle limit is reached, at which point
trafficeserver will not service any additional requests. At this point the only
resolution is to do stop/start of trafficserver.
