Congrats on posting!

We have just had a vulnerability identified on our DNN site.

It is possible to get to our login page via http and not https. However we have redirects on the entire site to change http to https in IIS and in our dnn security settings we have SSL enabled so i'm not sure why its possible to get to our site via http when its not possible with ANY other page on our site?

If you have a IIS redirect setup the corect way, no page of the site should be available using http.
In that case there the SSL settings are not needed in DNN.
What redirect rule did you use in IIS?
