Last Modified: Apr 20, 2024

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IQ Web App Security (ASM)(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
5.2.0

Opened: Apr 10, 2017

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

After deploying a new policy to a 13.0 BIG-IP device and doing another evaluation, differences involving the addition of a Plain Text Profile named "Default" might appear. Deploying the second evaluation will fail with an error that the Plain Text Profile cannot be deleted.

Impact

Difference shown after deployment and failure of second deployment.

Conditions

The issue happens when deploying to a 13.0 BIG-IP device and the policy has Disallowed WebSocket URLs. The issue happens if the BIG-IP device does not have a fix to bug 658062.

Workaround

In order to fully deploy the configuration if the unexpected difference appears, it is needed to remove all disallowed WebSocket URLs on the BIG-IP directly before doing another evaluation.
