Good deal on getting patched! You can check your logs to see if anyone is taking advantage of the REST interface:

  • /var/log/restjavad-audit.0.log shows all authentications to the iControl REST service. This is an ordered list of every REST call.
  • /var/log/restjavad.0.log contains information about connections to the iControl REST service, such as errors returned.
