10.10.3. The HTTP Invokers
The
http-invoker.sar found in the deploy directory is a service that provides RMI/HTTP access for EJBs and the JNDI Naming service. This includes a servlet that processes posts of marshalled org.jboss.invocation.Invocation objects that represent invocations that should be dispatched onto the MBeanServer. Effectively this allows access to MBeans that support the detached invoker operation via HTTP since one could figure out how to format an appropriate HTTP post. To security this access point you would need to secure the JMXInvokerServlet servlet found in the http-invoker.sar/invoker.war/WEB-INF/web.xml descriptor. There is a secure mapping defined for the /restricted/JMXInvokerServlet path by default, one would simply have to remove the other paths and configure the http-invoker security domain setup in the http-invoker.sar/invoker.war/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml descriptor.
