Discussion

Remote access to the web server is any access that communicates through an external, non-organization-controlled network. Remote access can be used to access hosted applications or to perform management functions. tc Server connections are managed by the Connector object class. By configuring external Connector objects to use the HTTPS scheme, vROps's information in flight will be protected.

Check Content

Navigate to and open /usr/lib/vmware-vcops/tomcat-web-app/conf/server.xml. 

Navigate to each of the <Connector> nodes.

If the value of “scheme” is not set to “https” or is missing, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Navigate to and open /usr/lib/vmware-vcops/tomcat-web-app/conf/server.xml.

Navigate to each of the <Connector> nodes.

Configure each <Connector> with the value 'scheme="https"'
