Enabling OCSP in mgmt profile also allows http management

I've enabled HTTP OCSP on the management profile attached to a loopback interface. HTTP and HTTPS are NOT enabled under Administrative Management Services (in fact, none are checked).

Nonetheless, the administration webpage is present and can be logged into with plaintext http connections. Disabling HTTP OCSP stops this.

This doesn't seem to happen if I enable HTTP OCSP on the management interface.

Is it normal or expected that allowing HTTP OCSP on a dataplane interface also enables http management?

Can you open a support case? I don't think that is intended behavior. If it is just that easy to replicate/reproduce, it's probably not expected.

I will. Thanks.
