Bug ID 2229569: Evict FSD Received While SPVADWL Is Uninitialized

Last Modified: May 05, 2026

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP AFM(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
17.5.1.3, 17.5.1.4, 17.5.1.5, 17.5.1.6

Fixed In:
17.1.3.2

Opened: Feb 26, 2026

Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

The issue occurs when spvadwl, a hash data structure, is uninitialized, and an EVICT FSD request is received from the SEP driver.

Impact

tmm cores

Conditions

The system expects the spvadwl hash to be initialized before handling an EVICT FSD request. If this assumption is incorrect, operations dependent on the hash fail due to its uninitialized state.

Workaround

N/A

Fix Information

A NULL check has been added to the `spvadwl_search` function to confirm the spvadwl hash is properly initialized before processing. If the hash is uninitialized, the system will ignore the 'EVICT FSD' request, ensuring proper operation and preventing errors.
