WBSP-AS-000970 - The WebSphere Application Server must disable JSP class reloading.

Information

Application servers provide a myriad of differing processes, features, and functionalities. Some of these processes may be deemed to be unnecessary or too unsecure to run on a production DoD system. Application servers must provide the capability to disable or deactivate functionality and services that are deemed to be non-essential to the server mission or can adversely impact server performance, for example, disabling dynamic JSP reloading on production application servers as a best practice.

Solution

To disable JSP reloading:

From the admin console, navigate to: Applications >> All applications >> [application name] >> JSP and JSP options.

Uncheck 'JSP enable class reloading'.
