Last Modified: Oct 15, 2025

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

Known Affected Versions:
17.1.2, 17.1.2.1, 17.1.2.2, 17.1.3, 17.5.0, 17.5.1, 17.5.1.2, 17.5.1.3

Opened: Jul 25, 2025

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Requests configured with the "Do Nothing" content profile may still have their body held until fully received, rather than being streamed directly to the server.

Impact

May lead to increased latency or timeouts for server-side applications expecting real-time data delivery, and unnecessary resource usage due to repeated ingress event handling.

Conditions

ASM is configured with the "Do Nothing" option and large or slow requests are sent.
