Create Domino LTPA token on F5 problem

Hi,

I'm able to reproduce what you've seen.

 
 set text "\x00\x01\x02\x03Hello World"
 set text_enc [b64encode $text]
 set text_dec [b64decode $text_enc]
 binary scan $text H* text_hex
 binary scan $text_enc H* text_enc_hex
 binary scan $text_dec H* text_dec_hex

 log local0. "Text: $text_hex"
 log local0. "Text encoded: $text_enc_hex"
 log local0. "Text decoded: $text_dec_hex"

The result:

Nov 9 03:13:54 local/tmm info tmm[5158]: Rule rule01 : Text: 0001020348656c6c6f20576f726c64

Nov 9 03:13:54 local/tmm info tmm[5158]: Rule rule01 : Text encoded: 7749414241674e495a5778736279425862334a735a413d3d

Nov 9 03:13:54 local/tmm info tmm[5158]: Rule rule01 : Text decoded: c08001020348656c6c6f20576f726c64

So, yes there is a c080 in front of the text and it only happens if the initial string starts with \x00.

This looks like a bug. Maybe something with internal string handling. Please open a case with my example and ask support what's going wrong. It would be nice if you could update this thread as soon as you get a reply from support.

Thanks!
