Description

All,

We are facing an issue where chisel client failed to communicate with the server because the traffic is suspected as malicious. From the capture we did we can see:

No.	Time	                                Source  Destination	  Protocol	Length	Info	                                                                 Port
30	2023-06-06 20:39:32.904515	1.1.3.4	4.5.6.7	   HTTP	          295	GET / HTTP/1.1 	                                         8082
31	2023-06-06 20:39:32.905755	4.5.6.7	1.2.3.4	   HTTP	          381	HTTP/1.1 401 Access Denied  (text/html)	30108

and the following body appears: "Potential Threat Detected"

Does anybody failed on the same ? Not clear the root cause because no traffic scanner or threat detection is running.

Any idea will be welcome.

Thanks

Research direction

Start by reproducing the chisel client-to-server connection described in the capture and compare the HTTP request with the 401 Access Denied response containing “Potential Threat Detected.” Check whether the rejection occurs outside chisel, then document the responsible component and a reproducible diagnosis; the issue names no source files or tests to use.
