Leading tab in header name: Authorization
I have a violation / suggestion a detection of Leading tab in header named: "Authorization" When I look at the request, I don't see the "TAB" in the header name. I expect to see something like this: " Authorization" But, what I see is header named "Authorization" I'm wondering whether the meaning here is header context or is there something else I'm missing. Here is the request and F5 log: BIG-IP Application Security Manager Security Events Report Exported on: 2024-08-11 16:40:22 | Exported by: Hostname: F5-AWAF | IP Address: Support ID: 5162895 Request Details Requested URL [HTTPS] /ag/logout Time 2024-08-11 15:46:57 Enforcement Action Block Enforced By Application Security Policy Violation Rating 1 Request is most likely a false positive Attack Types Detection Evasion Geolocation Source IP Address 9.5.8.6.:53483 Device ID N/A Username N/A Session ID ad8a5466e66666b6 Source IP Intelligence N/A Security Policy /Common/SWAF Virtual Server /Common/s Request Status Blocked Blocking Exception Reason N/A Accept Status Not Accepted Host s.co Destination IP Address 16.16.16.6:443 Response Status Code N/A Protocol Info HTTP/1.1 Severity Error Signatures CVEs N/A Detected Violations Attack signature detected [1] Request Request actual size: 1337 bytes.
