Opened: Apr 05, 2018

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

On the BIG-IP GUI, under System :: Software Management :: Update Check, after pressing 'Check now', the 'Available Update' shows a long string 'OPSWAT Endpoint Security Integration Update. See readme_minimum_version.txt before install' instead of the EPSEC version, e.g.: epsec-1.0.0-679.0.

Impact

Cannot determine what version is available by viewing 'Available Update'. Although this is how all the other updates work, it can result in a confusing BIG-IP user experience.

Conditions

-- Under System :: Software Management :: Update Check. -- Press 'Check now'.

Workaround

To have the browser show the link's destination address, view the browser's status fields while hovering the cursor over the following link text: OPSWAT Endpoint Security Integration Update. See readme_minimum_version.txt before install.

Fix Information

The output now shows the version, e.g.: epsec-1.0.0-679.0.
