Question

Web Filter Block Override Accessible Externally

Hi, I have a device on the DMZ with port 443 open and the site can be accessed fine, no other ports are in the allow policy for that device.  When I do a scan on the devices external IP however I saw ports 8008 and 8010 listed as open and whn I went to port 8008 it redirected to a Web Filter Block Override page on port 8010.

 

Now there are no login fields or even links on the page so I'm not sure if it's much of a risk however I am more concerned that it is open at all given I can't see any reference to it in my  policy.  It is a Fortinet branded page.

 

Anyone know how I can close this off and explain why its open on the WAN in the first place?

Many thanks

Gerry

    Found the cause of this, there was a web filter rule enabled on this particular policy even though it was a WAN --> DMZ rule for https access.  Once I disabled web filtering on the policy the access on port 8008 and 8010 is no more.
