The Remote Engine and Dynamic Engine are not impacted by this vulnerability. However, we will update the embedded jobserver in version 2.14.1 of the remote engine available in February 2026.
Since applying the R2026-01 Runtime patch, the monitoring port doesn't seem to be operational at all.
When I set it to true, the entire server goes DOWN.
If I set it to false, the server goes to UP: but the MonitoringPort is misconfigured.
Was this what the patch was supposed to do? Is there an alternative way to use the monitoring port, or was this simply an emergency measure to disable its functionality until a proper fix can be applied to the JMX code?
Actually - it seems to have been fixed in 2026-02. There is a clear distinction between a Job Server config and a Runtime Server config, so monitoring and process message ports no longer appear under the Runtime Server ports config and np DOWN status is generated by them.
However, please note that you need an updated version of TAC to see this change. So it would be best to upgrade to the latest QTAC-1884 (it also worked in QTAC-1883).
Bumped it up to 2026-02v2, look like my problem now is that my monitoring port is only listening on 127.0.0.1 so the tac will not be able to access it on a separate server. The patch restricted 3 others to localhost, fixed those but can't seem to find a way to change that.
