AWS F5 OWASP managed rules are blocking requests all of a sudden (23-01-2025) We want to understand if there was any update made and also the changelog for this update and which rules were updated. Where do I find this information and AWS is not supporting these rules since these are managed by F5. Do we have a way to reach the vendor ?188Views1like5CommentsSilent update AWS Marketplace F5 OWASP
We use the F5 Rules for AWS WAF - Web exploits OWASP Rules for our WAF setup. Since 2025-07-13 T21:00:00 we see an enormous increase in blocked traffic on three rules blocking our legitimate traffic globally (on approx. 40 servers for different customers). Has a silent update been pushed (to the regex or something)? We've been reviewing our codebase and IaC logs - no changes from our side. The three rules that suddenly spike: rule_Cross_Site_Scripting_AllQueryArguments_Body rule_General_Protection__URI__UriPath rule_General_Protection_AllQueryArguments_BodySolved157Views1like2CommentsF5 Rules for AWS WAF CVE-2021-40438

Hello How much does it cost to apply "F5 Rules for AWS WAF - Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures (CVE) Rules" to Cloudfront? The product page describes it as follows https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-y4tlpqpjpm4qi Monthly fee for each applicable region (pro-rated per hour) $20 / unit I understand that there is a fee for each region when applied to ALB, but what about Cloudfront? Will I be charged for all regions?423Views1like1CommentAWS WAF - Web Exploits Rules by F5 - Log4J Update
Hi F5 Does the ruleset "AWS WAF - Web Exploits Rules by F5" now offer any protection from requests seeking to exploit the Log4J vulnerability described in CVE-2021-44228 If not currently - can you advise when we may expect an update?

We have subscribed to the "F5 Rules for AWS WAF - API Security Rules". Product page: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B07M948X2H. A Web ACL has been created in our AWS account using this group of rules. It has been then associated to an API published on the Amazon API Gateway. For some reason, even basic SQL injection are not blocked. For instance, a request with a url-encoded string like ' OR '1'='1 (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection) in querystring is not blocked. Switching to a group of rules managed by a competitor (Fortinet) resolved our problem. We are surprised the F5 rules are so permissive. Maybe we are missing something. Any thoughts ? Thank you.
