Opened: Jul 09, 2019

Severity: 4-Minor

Symptoms

After adding a new item to the mitigation exception list, you can also change its mitigation action. If you do not save the changes and then add more new exception items, the mitigation actions of the previously added items return to their default value actions.

Impact

Mitigation action exceptions might be saved with their default value actions instead of the actions you configured.

Conditions

-- Add mitigation exception to the Bot Configuration. -- Change mitigation action on that new exception. -- Add new items to exception list without first saving.

Workaround

After adding a group of exception items and editing their actions, save the Bot Configuration properties before adding any new mitigation exception items.

Fix Information

When adding several mitigation exceptions, the previously configured actions no longer revert to the default action.
