Description Andrej Nemec 2016-07-25 12:52:58 UTC
Autobahn|Python incorrectly checks the Origin header when the 'allowedOrigins' value is set. This can allow third parties to execute legitimate requests for WAMP WebSocket requests against an Autobahn|Python/Crossbar.io server within another browser's context.

OSP 10 will use zaqar in the undercloud. The websockets interface for Zaqar does require autobahn and we are using it from both Mistral workflows and the UI to help transport async messages to clients.

I'm not aware of a BZ which outlines all of our usages patterns. Zaqar has multiple transports. We will typically:

1) send messages to a Zaqar queue over HTTP

2) get messages from a Zaqar queue over either HTTP or via websockets (autobahn). The case for websockets could come from either python-tripleoclient (a remote client) or from the UI running in a web browser.
