  • 1.  HTTP Trace Method Disabled not working on Webseal

    Posted Tue October 18, 2022 07:51 AM
    Hi All,

    There's findings from Our Security Team, they checked that out sso url are enabled for HTTP Trace Method, then we need to remediate it.

    I am already following this documentation Disabling HTTP methods - IBM Documentation but I am still get HTTP/1.1 200 OK.

    Is there anything miss from my configuration? I hope you can help for my requirement.

    Thanks.

    Best Regards,
    Julian Fazri

    Julian,

     

    To disable the TRACE method you definitely should be able to use the http-method-disabled-local and http-method-disabled-remote configuration entries.  Both entries should be changed to include the 'TRACE' method.  If you feel that you have set these configuration entries correctly I would suggest that you raise a support ticket with IBM so that the support team can investigate further.

     

    Thanks.

    Hi Scott,

    Yes I already set TRACE value on http-method-disabled-remote and http-method-disabled-local parameter, but I am still can do the trace. I am set it on [server] Stanza. Should I add those parameters on other Stanza?

    Thanks

    Julian,

     

    This should be working for you – you only need to set those configuration entries on the server stanza.  I would suggest that you raise a ticket with IBM support and get them to investigate further.

     

    Thanks.
