Non-RFC Request

Hi,

 

 

We are using F5 Big IP ASM version 9.2.2 security firewall in blocking mode. There is one post request which is very critical for our system, which the firewall refuses to learn. It claims it is non-RFC complaint. For us it looks like all our other requests and we have spent a lot of time but cannot figure out why the request breaks the complaince. Can you pls. help.

 

 

POST /group/test-system/your-accounts?p_auth=36zMuBhR&p_p_id=cardOperations_WAR_Website&p_p_lifecycle=1&p_p_st ate=normal&p_p_mode=view&_cardOperations_WAR_Website_action3DSecureCallback=Test HTTP/1.1 Host: server_name User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.16) Gecko/20110319 Firefox/3.6.16 Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 Accept-Language: en-gb,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 115 Connection: keep-alive Referer: https://server_name/group/test-system/your-accounts?p_auth=36zMuBhR&p_p_id=cardOperations_WAR_Websit e&p_p_lifecycle=1&p_p_state=exclusive&p_p_mode=view&_cardOperations_WAR_Website_actionFinishTopUp= Cookie: JSESSIONID=130AF7663E619A13B17CB4031DEB4C1D; TS8883b2=7f28c6c0db2af87ad3e59b1deffefc04b6f64e3c402f3f764d95b724 Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Content-Length: 0

  • Hi All,

     

     

    We have managed to fix this problem. This was related to form posting content length of 0 which although RFC complaint, is not accepted by ASM.

     

     

    Thanks,
