    when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if {[HTTP::method] eq "POST"}{
    HTTP::header replace origin "http://123.abc.com"
    HTTP::header replace referer "http://123.abc.com"
  } else { return }
}

     

    This should do, but please test before installing. 

    Also, you should be able to achieve the same with an LTM policy, which is recommended because it is faster and more importantly is fully supported within configuration changes like an upgrade since syntax is standard. 

    iRule can be improved if you require support for multiple hosts
