Class SSLHeaderHandler

java.lang.Object

io.undertow.server.handlers.SSLHeaderHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

HttpHandler

public class SSLHeaderHandler
extends Object
implements HttpHandler

Handler that sets SSL information on the connection based on the following headers:

• SSL_CLIENT_CERT
• SSL_CIPHER
• SSL_SESSION_ID

If this handler is present in the chain it will always override the SSL session information, even if these headers are not present.

This handler MUST only be used on servers that are behind a reverse proxy, where the reverse proxy has been configured to always set these header for EVERY request (or strip existing headers with these names if no SSL information is present). Otherwise it may be possible for a malicious client to spoof a SSL connection.
