Last Modified: May 29, 2024

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

Known Affected Versions:
14.1.0, 14.1.0.1

Fixed In:
15.0.0, 14.1.0.2

Opened: Jul 30, 2018

Severity: 4-Minor

Symptoms

FPS sends a data integrity alert when a parameter is configured with 'Check Data Manipulation' enabled. the alert includes parameter's actual-name, actual-val-crc, and expected-val-crc. For wildcard parameters, it is difficult to tell which parameter was found and triggered the data integrity alert, since FPS sends only the actual name that was found in the request.

Impact

Alert analysis is more difficult, as the actual matched parameter is not obvious.

Conditions

Wildcard parameter defined for integrity check.

Workaround

None.

Fix Information

FPS now includes wildcard parameter's configured-name in the data integrity alert.
