The SSL::sessionid iRule command might return random, invalid values. This also causes high CPU usage on TMM. This occurs when the SSL ID retrieved from SSL is on the stack and gets overwritten prior to use, resulting in a persist lookup loop which causes the high CPU. The issue is also associated with the SSL::sessionid iRule command because SSL::sessionid and SSL persistence use the same internal mechanism to retrieve the SSL session ID.
The iRule might not work as expected. High CPU usage.
This issue occurs when either of the following conditions exists: -- An iRule exists that queries the SSL::sessionid. -- An SSL persist profile is configured on the virtual server.
Do not use the SSL:sessionid iRule.
The SSL::sessionid iRule returns the session ID as expected.
