Darran Lofthouse commented on AS7-3042:
---------------------------------------
Is it really the correct URL that should be shared publicly? How do you know that the
user that has connected through a firewall or reverse proxy can or even should be
connecting to that address?
Whilst in your scenario that redirect would work there are plenty that will not and should
not work.
IPv6: Invalid redirect to Admin console (wrong IP address)
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: AS7-3042
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3042
Project: Application Server 7
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Console, Web
Affects Versions: 7.1.0.Beta1b
Reporter: Pavel Janousek
Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
Fix For: Open To Community
This issue is some derivation from AS7-3040. Lets imagine starting server like this:
{code}./standalone.sh -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=false -Djboss.bind.address=::1{code}
So by default the admin/management is bound to _::ffff:127.0.0.1:9990_ and
_::ffff:127.0.0.1:9999_, but it isn't accessible from Web WelcomePage at _::1:8080_
because the URL is specified as: {code}<a href="/console">{code} and so
the next request is http://[::1]:8080/console which redirect requester to
http://[::1]:9990, but there isn't any console because it is here -
http://[::ffff:127.0.0.1]:9990.
This is not good as it could lead to integration issues between components (X trying to
connect to Y on ::1; Y listening on ::ffff:127.0.0.1).
