             Summary: [Java Broker] Harden the use of Jetty against DoS attacks
                 Key: QPID-6931
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6931
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Java Broker
            Reporter: Lorenz Quack


Currently Jetty seems open to potential Denial of Service (DoS) attacks.
According to [this email thread|https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/jetty-users/msg04338.html] on the jetty user mailing list our current approach of limiting the number of jetty thread and number of connections is not sufficient and it is suggested to use the [QoS Filter|http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/current/qos-filter.html] instead.
