Qualys scans affecting DevTest Servers

Products

• Service Virtualization

Issue/Introduction

We continue to experience issues with our DevTest servers during and after weekly Qualys scans hit our servers. We have applied the suggested patches and we still experience the issues after Qualys scans.

I will provide logs from DevTest Registry server as an example of the errors we experience after the scans hit our servers.

What we usually see happen is:

1. Qualys scans hit Registry server.

We see resulting errors in both the registry.log as well as portal-grail.log

2. As a result of these issues, the VSE server will experience timeout issues because it is pointing to the Registry server.

 

Environment

Release : 10.6

Component : CA Service Virtualization

Cause

Registry process against Qualys scanner. Vse service is also affected

Resolution

Please open a ticket with Support and ask for patch_DE498550_10.6.0_GA.jar.  We have additional dependent jar for the same.
