Hello, I have a security problem with my dataverse server. Dataverse requires port 8009 to be open, isn' it?
My institution's Security Service warning me that the server is reporting the following security problem: 'NVT: Apache Tomcat AJP RCE Vulnerability (Ghostcat) (High (CVSS: 9.8))'. Often, this problem occurs because of port 8009 being opened and associated with Tomcat. We have not Tomcat running in the server. How can I solve this problem? Thank you in advance.
@Adília Isabel Domingues da Cruz Alves hi! Can you please email security@dataverse.org so we can start tracking this?
