Folks, We use NiFi which embeds Jetty Server. Our test team found a security bug by intercepting the http request and replacing the header with a huge (say 1GB) text, which sent the response to NCM, which got OOM: 2017-03-07 03:44:03,522 WARN [NiFi Web Server-22] o.a.n.c.m.impl.HttpRequestReplicatorImpl Node request for [id=99a65e79-b856-4e43-9056-1451714498fc, apiAddress=129.188.35.109, apiPort=38484, socketAddress=129.188.35.109, socketPort=39494, siteToSiteAddress=129.188.35.109, siteToSitePort=null] encountered exception: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
We tried setResponseHeaderSize here http://download.eclipse.org/jetty/stable-9/apidocs/org/eclipse/jetty/server/HttpConfiguration.html#setResponseHeaderSize-int- but it didn't seem to work: it seems to us that the huge fake header got received before this limit takes effect, as a result, the NCM got OOM in the first place. Are we missing anything, or is there a potential bug with setResponseHeaderSize, please? Btw, we also wonder if below workaround would work? 1. Increase Nifi bootstrap.conf JVM heap size such as xmx8g 2. Set connection timeout http://apache-nifi-developer-list.39713.n7.nabble.com/nifi-Cluster-setup-issue-td2988.html nifi.cluster.manager.node.api.connection.timeout=30 sec nifi.cluster.manager.node.api.read.timeout=30 sec Thanks, Conan&Sherry
