Content Type Checking

By default, VMware Horizon 8 accepts requests with the following declared content types only:

• application/x-www-form-urlencoded
• application/xml
• text/xml

Note: In earlier releases, this protection was deactivated by default.

To restrict the content types that VMware Horizon 8 accepts, add the following entry to the file locked.properties:

acceptContentType.1=content-type

For example:

acceptContentType.1=x-www-form-urlencoded

To accept another content type, add the entry acceptContentType.2=content-type, and so on

To accept requests with any declared content type, specify acceptContentType=*.
