Symptoms

The irule SSL::sessionid command used returns an empty value after an upgrade to v15.1.9.1, when used with a TLS1.3 session. While SSL::sessionid in v15.1.8.2 returns the value specified in the ClientHello for a TLSv1.3 session, upgrading to v15.1.9.1 results in empty values returned when calling SSL::sessionid.

Impact

SSL::sessionid returns an empty value, which could result in unintended behavior for applications that use that iRule command.

Conditions

1. Use SSL::sessionid in an iRule 2. Use an affected BIG-IP version 3. Client establishes a TLS1.3 connection
