Running the Oracle HTTP Server on OpenVMS 3ñ19

Security Information

The Oracle HTTP Server for OpenVMS is a non-privileged, user-mode, socket-based

network application

. TMPMBX and NETMBX are the only privilege

requirements

. The server runs under its own unique UIC and user account

(ORACLE).

Process Model

The Oracle HTTP Server runs as a single job which consists of:

■ A master process (ORACLE)

and

■ Several subprocesses

Subprocesses are created to service incoming HTTP requests and to execute CGI

scripts.

Because the server runs as a single job, the OpenVMS security profile for each

process is identical, and no enhanced mechanism is required for these processes to

communicate with one another

. Resource utilization is controlled by a single user

account (ORACLE) where pooled quotas are defined.

Privileged Images

The Oracle HTTP Server performs three operations that require additional privilege:

■ Binding to a port below 1024 (privileged ports).

By default, the server binds to port 8080 (HTTP).

■ Fetching path information for other users.

The server provides a replacement for the getpwnam C RTL routine to allow

the server to fetch default path information for other users (required by

MOD_UTIL and MOD_USERDIR).
