Symptoms

If an iRule calls [SSL::collect] in the SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE event, the expected result is that the SERVERSSL_DATA event will be raised when the serverside receives the SSL data. Then, the decrypted SSL data can be examined and manipulated. ***************************** when SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE { SSL::collect } when SERVERSSL_DATA { log local0. "ServerSSL Data" log local0. [SSL::payload] SSL::release } ***************************** The issue is that SERVERSSL_DATA is not raised, even when the serverside receives the SSL data when the iRule calls the [SSL::collect] in the SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE: **************************** when SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE { SSL::collect } ****************************

Impact

SERVERSSL_DATA event is not raised.

Conditions

Calling the [SSL::collect] in the SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE event. **************************** when SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE { SSL::collect } ****************************

Workaround

Add the [SSL::release] command in the SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE event. ********************************** when SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE { SSL::collect SSL::release }

Fix Information

SERVERSSL_DATA event is now raised when an iRule calls [SSL::collect] in the SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE.
