Title: bitcoind spam Post by: p2pbucks on December 29, 2014, 11:03:57 AM hey guys,
If someone maliciously sends tons of json-rpc command thru a website interface . (eg , bitcoind->getinfo() or bitcoind->getnewaddress() ..etc) Does the backend bitcoind exit automatically ? how many json-rpc commands one bitcoind(core) server could handle ? I wanna know the capacity . Thanks : ) Title: Re: bitcoind spam Post by: mstfck on December 29, 2014, 11:44:30 AM No, it doesn't.
If you are integrating bitcoind calls into your service it should only be accessible by localhost/127.0.0.1 so only the site can make rpc calls. If you are worried that someone will be making alot of requests, you can make a custom spam blocker server side. EDIT: Not sure if it crashes if enough requests is made though, I believe it depends on the machine it runs on. |
