When you enable the optional internal HTTP server, what is the risk of hackers utilizing http?

Do you enable a complete, commercial HTTP server or just a special, limited program for Winflector?

thanks for the insight.

There is always a risk...

The HTTP/HTTPS server is embedded in Winflector server. It is very limited version only for use with Winflector. From version 396.x it uses additional SSL protocol for encryption.

Support staff posted additional information in the thread "Running Apps via Winflector from a Mac"

https://www.winflector.com/store/forum/topic-view/id/360

"the HTTP server is our own internal implementation. There is nothing to steal, nothing to inject, no commands to hack. Plus there is a SSL layer and our own encryption algorithms."

This provides additional information that shows they are not just implementing a separately build IIS-type server in their software.  eliminating the potential for "injection" attacks is key to the security.

IMHO
