Bug ID 2359049: IP Intelligence feedlist config with address 0.0.0.0 & no specific netmask

Last Modified: Oct 16, 2026

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

Fixed In:
17.5.1.10, 17.1.3.6

Opened: Jun 29, 2026

Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

IP Intelligence feedlist config with 0.0.0.0 as IP address & no netmask wrongly blocks all addresses

Impact

A wrong configuration with 0.0.0.0 as an IP address entry without a netmask can unexpectedly drop all traffic, even if such an entry was unintended. The consequences of dropping all traffic are not expected

Conditions

Configuration with 0.0.0.0 as IP address entry without netmask

Workaround

Ensure no invalid 0.0.0.0 IP address entry. If the intention is to block a single IP, explicitly specify the netmask <ip>,32,bl, or <ip>/32,,bl, or <valid ip(non 0.0.0.0)>,,bl,

Fix Information
