Symptoms

Impact

You are unable to save the edited rule.

Conditions

1. Create a user defined attack signature in Security ›› Options : Application Security : Attack Signatures : Attack Signatures List page, with advanced mode rule, which cannot be converted to simple mode: e.g. valuecontent:"%test2dsa%"; 2. Save the signature and open it. In the opened window, change the rule. The Update button is still disabled.

Workaround

Change another field, e.g. Signature type. then save (press Update button). Open again and change back the other field previously modified, and save again.
