Last Modified: May 29, 2024

Affected Product(s):
F5OS None(all modules)

Fixed In:
F5OS-C 1.6.0, F5OS-A 1.4.0, F5OS-A 1.3.0

Opened: Aug 24, 2022

Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

The webUI crashes when a new SSL/TLS certificate is created in the Certificate Management tab. The HTTP server has to restart to read the newly-created private keys (encrypted or un encrypted) from a configuration file. Before the HTTP server restarts, all active client connections will be closed. This will cause the webUI to crash, and the server will be unreachable temporarily.

Impact

The webUI crashes and the TCP connection with the HTTP server will be closed.

Conditions

No configuration changes required.

Workaround

The user has to reestablish the connection to the server after waiting a few seconds.

Fix Information

No fix required.
