Security scan found an unsecure connection between RHN-Proxy to RHN-Satellite

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

There is a plain text authentication (unsecure connection) from RHN-Proxy to RHN-Satellite when accessing /rhn/account/UserPreferences.do. Navigating to http://<RHN_PROXY>/rhn/account/UserPreferences.do via the webui will result in not being redirected to HTTPS. This also occurs with the internal call for /rhn/account/UserPreferences.do between RHN-Proxy and RHN-Satellite.

Environment

  • RHN-Proxy 5.4
