Hello Chris, thanks for the reply. Maybe I am doing something wrong, but setting secretRequired="false" does not solve my issue. Let me show you what I did and experience: I added <Connector port="8011" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" secretRequired="false" /> to the Tomcat configuration and the ajp connector on the Apache HTTPD side connects to 8011. When I now visit my website I got HTTP Status 403 Forbidden
I attached also the error page as a screenshot to this mail. This behaviour exists only sice the Ghostcat fix release (I know that this has nothing to do with security fix but probably with the release itself).

When you have set secretRequired="false", it's not possible to connect?

Only the next version of Apache > 2.4 supports this attribute. Correct. Support for secret= in mod_proxy_ajp was evidently never really a priority for anybody until now. > So I want to use the newest Tomcat version and an AJP connector but > after the Ghostcat fix release there is this attribute which does not > work in my configuration. > > Are there any suggestions or solutions available that you can deliver > me (links or documentation, etc.) secretRequired="false" should be all you need. Of course, to be truly secure, you need to make sure that not just anybody can make requests through your AJP interface. Have you secured that interface from potential evildoers? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - https://www.enigmail.net/ iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEMmKgYcQvxMe7tcJcHPApP6U8pFgFAl5zxHsACgkQHPApP6U8 pFjf7Q/+Ixbc10KYI07Wb1pdzQajVtw88BcfSZ3dfam2Q9aj2IhZJD5GUTzszAGC bs6eySKEh5vqaHq+oy2ZOuv2f1xxukPQ3/XfmIEUb83G7QScwlMf0r5dth9uslcq cUgHFkpGhSQghB2yhZSzKMzF7gjRY9QI0S5EpEHTQ45CUvREWr4GRyLndkjTbu2C rhdB+8ud4iErWJe1Er0NEqOgoVL8Ceed4BGRYzoT7+lN1dRE4MFIn8ALdVzAvo4L 9ZIm+zawSkx7jUTAGDi4wHd2KrewR9kqJybovZaACx/yc6IF1Sv+DaWlTUDdabE2 qrSl45mA4EdLCeH1wfbZ62IhErbxvLahygAwgYSeMfhv02vzBbmn8bXY4yg359ln aO2AV3xNbxFrF56XatRGIJ+3/ETh2oIv0PLnJEr8xc3CcwdJ+rn8c9i84ZZLnHb6 iTl+Gx9pCUbtH0qCILzLzj7Js9yl13o9AVu3UQ9UxY9BNxkFiKKBe4YfGUev2iiB Vx1Zw6S6/ByjhUpzaSEciSYCkr+pR61iOJpCN9B3tnpv4cRgkqwPWEPgMFDtvFT9 ciwpDuN+O2YPPE0Z39tSy64Ge2QWyPkvb8hVZUEZGVMRmQ1W5LhDJhNxECklxKOh sZPFkji5aVOxj6TT5vwqQDov+FyU2pV5/HRD4fe/vr8vdKj+vec= =CYi0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
