May 27, 2009Blocking insecure log-in page
We terminate https on the F5, and pass traffic to the web apps on port 80. Consequently, I have an interesting problem. I have a log-in page (/store/user/login.jhtml) that should only be accessed via ...

May 28, 2009Ben,
Appreciate the answers, but neither of the 2 I tried (a and c) worked for me. Option b is a bit more difficult -- ASM is on 3 stand-alone 8800's, configured in a pool, in which the Load-Balancing LTM 8800's send traffic. All of this traffic is from one http class per site -- I can hit the Load-Balance team up to do what you're suggesting, but I'd rather do it on the ASM's.
I created the parameter as a static -- and checked all the Access, Length and Input Violations on the blocking settings. It never alarmed, and subsequently, was never blocked. I didn't try it as a flow parameter, but that will be next. I've never done a Flow-based object parameter, and need to research it a little further.
Option c just didn't work -- and after I applied the signature globally, it wasn't blocking on any site's login URL, so I may have done something wrong. My signature was simple: uricontent:"/store/user/login.jhtml"; I also tried "headercontent", which didn't work either. I had turned off staging, and I was checking for violations in the log -- nothing.
Any further ideas? I'm still pretty stumped.
Thanks for your help!
Joel
