Bug ID: 55931 Summary: Security: Tomcat7 opens 2 additional random ports that listen for all IPs when JMX is enabled Product: Tomcat 7 Version: 7.0.47 Hardware: Other OS: other Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Catalina Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Reporter: michael_fur...@hotmail.com I run 7.0.47 using Java 1.7.0_45-b18 on Centos6. I enabled JMX using the following options: CATALINA_OPTS="${CATALINA_OPTS} -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9123 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.local.only=true" Unfortunately, when I check what ports are opened I discover 2 additional random ports: netstat -plunt | grep java Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 :::60555 :::* LISTEN 22752/java tcp 0 0 ::ffff:127.0.0.1:8080 :::* LISTEN 22752/java tcp 0 0 :::9123 :::* LISTEN 22752/java tcp 0 0 :::40867 :::* LISTEN 22752/java Please note that each restart only configured ports 8080 and 9123 remains same, and two additional ports change values. It is security problem, since Tomcat listen for all IPs. Why JMX in Tomcat opens 2 additional ports? How can I configure these ports? How can I configure `::ffff:127.0.0.1` will appear before all ports opened by JMX? I have configured JmxRemoteLifecycleListener http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/listeners.html#JMX_Remote_Lifecycle_Listener_-_org.apache.catalina.mbeans.JmxRemoteLifecycleListener Using the following configuration: <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.mbeans.JmxRemoteLifecycleListener" rmiRegistryPortPlatform="9123" rmiServerPortPlatform="10002" rmiBindAddress="localhost"/> In this case only one random port (60714 in the list below) appears: tcp 0 0 ::ffff:127.0.0.1:8080 :::* tcp 0 0 ::ffff:127.0.0.1:10002 :::* tcp 0 0 ::ffff:127.0.0.1:9123 :::* tcp 0 0 :::60714 :::* Why JMX in Tomcat opens 1 additional port? How can I configure the port? How can I configure `::ffff:127.0.0.1` will appear before all ports opened by JMX? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
