Meta Character *

HI all, I'd like to create an exception for a parameter when the repeated meta character "" is detected. Currently, "" is interpreted by ASM as "Ox*" and not as a repeated "0x2a". When this characters are posted, the customer wants to report the error from the application, not from ASM Any idea?

 

Thanks in advance, Mauro

    Apparently the policy creation process (on the Configuration Utility) does not allow anything other than "any of" for what you enter into the form field. Your only option might be just to disable ASM with an irule:

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [HTTP::uri] contains "**" } {
        ASM::disable
    }
}

    .
