Unreferenced date December 2009 In computer networking , the term firewall pinhole is used to describe a TCP and UDP port port that is opened through a firewall networking firewall to allow a particular application software application to gain controlled access to the protected network. Leaving open gaps in a firewall exposes the protected system to malicious abuse. Obviously, a fully closed firewall would prevent applications from accessing information on the other side of the firewall. Thus, it is necessary to carefully open holes in firewalls that are very small and restricted hence the term pinhole . For best protection, the mechanism for opening the pinhole in the firewall must implement some form of validation and security that will protect the system behind the firewall. For firewalls performing a network address translation NAT function, the mapping between the external address, external port tuple and the internal address, internal port tuple is often called a pinhole. Pinholes can be created manually or programmatically. They can be temporary created dynamically for a specific duration such as for a dynamic connection or permanent such as for Signalling telecommunication signalling functions . Firewalls sometimes automatically close pinholes after a period of time typically a few minutes to minimize the security exposure. Applications that require a pinhole to be kept open often need to generate artificial traffic through the pinhole in order to cause the firewall to restart its timer.

Many personal firewalls are able to control network traffic by prompting the user each time a connection is attempted and adapting security policy accordingly. Personal firewalls may also provide some level of intrusion detection system intrusion detection , allowing the software to terminate or block connectivity where it suspects an intrusion is being attempted. Features Common personal firewall features Protects the user from unwanted incoming connection attempts Alert the user about outgoing connection attempts Allows the user to control which programs can and cannot access the Local area network local network and or Internet Hide the computer from port scans by not responding to unsolicited network traffic Monitor applications that are listening for incoming connections Monitor and regulate all incoming and outgoing Internet users Prevent unwanted network traffic from locally installed applications Provide the user ... also manipulate the firewall, because both are running on the same system.

An XML firewall is a specialized device used to protect applications exposed through XML based interfaces like Web Services Description Language WSDL and Representational State Transfer REST and scan XML traffic coming in and out of an organization. Typically deployed in a demilitarized zone computing DMZ environment an XML Firewall is often used to validate XML traffic, control access to XML based resources, filter XML content and rate limit requests to back end applications exposed through XML based interfaces. XML Firewalls are commonly deployed as hardware but can also be found as software and virtual appliance for VMWare, Xen or Amazon EC2. A number of brands of XML Firewall exist and they often differ based on parameters like performance with or without hardware acceleration, 32 Vs 64 bit , scalability how do they cluster and perform under load , security certification common criteria, FIPS being the most common , identity support for Security Assertion Markup Language SAML , OAuth , enterprise SSO solutions and extensibility they can support different transport protocols like IBM WebSphere MQ IBM MQ , Tibco EMS, etc .
