Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

If collect-all-dos-statistic is enabled, AVR 'promises' to the client a JavaScript injection in the response by adding the expected length of the JavaScript to the Content-length header.

Impact

In addition to collecting DoS statistics, JavaScript injection also occurs.

Conditions

Security :: reporting : settings : collect-all-dos-statistic is enabled.

Workaround

Can use iRules to control which pages should get the JavaScript injection. For detailed information, see K13859: Disabling CSPM injection with iRules :: https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K13859.

Fix Information

Changed the condition that insert the JavaScript injection in case that "collect all dos stats" is enabled.
