667278-4 : DSC connections between BIG-IP units may fail to establish
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
The device service clustering (DSC) connection between two BIG-IP units may fail to establish. One unit will log messages similar to the following example:
-- err mcpd[7912]: 01071af4:3: Inbound CMI connection from IP (192.168.100.1) denied because it came from VLAN (v1542), not from expected VLAN (tmm).
While the unit at the other end of the connection will log messages similar to the following example:
-- notice mcpd[5730]: 01071432:5: CMI peer connection established to 192.168.200.1 port 6699 after 0 retries
May 31 20:58:04 BIG-IP-c-sea notice mcpd[5730]: 0107143c:5: Connection to CMI peer 192.168.200.1 has been removed
Conditions:
This issue occurs when the Self-IP addresses used for Config-Sync by the two BIG-IP units are not in the same IP subnet, and special routing is configured between the BIG-IP units. Examples of special routing include a gateway pool or dynamic routing configurations with multiple routes to the same destination (i.e., ECMP routing).
Impact:
Config-Sync and device discovery operations will fail between affected units.
Workaround:
You can work around this issue by using Self-IP addresses for Config-Sync that are on the same IP subnet or rely on simpler routing to achieve connectivity (i.e., a single route).
Fix:
Config-Sync and device discovery operations no longer fail.
665905-1 : Signature System corruption from specific ASU prevents ASU load after upgrade
Solution Article: K83305000
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
After loading Attack Signature Update "ASM-SignatureFile_20170403_145743.im" on 11.5.4 HF2 (or later) and upgrading to certain software versions, attempts to perform Signature Update fail.
Conditions:
-- Loading Attack Signature Update "ASM-SignatureFile_20170403_145743.im".
-- Using v11.5.4 HF2 (or later).
-- Upgrading the device to 11.6.1, 12.1.0, 12.1.1, or 12.1.2.
Impact:
Attempts to perform Signature Update fail.
Workaround:
The mistaken Signature System can be deleted using the following SQL:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE PLC.NEGSIG_SIGNATURE_SYSTEMS set system_id = 14 where system_id = (select system_id FROM PLC.NEGSIG_SYSTEMS where system_name = 'Apache');
DELETE FROM PLC.NEGSIG_SYSTEMS where system_name = 'Apache';
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fix:
Database corruption introduced by loading Attack Signature Update 'ASM-SignatureFile_20170403_145743.im' is now corrected upon upgrade.
664930-1 : Policy automatic learning mode changes to manual after failover
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:

Conditions:
-- ASM provisioned.
-- Device group with ASM policy sync configured for multi-blade devices.
-- ASM Policy is in automatic learning mode.
-- A failover occurs.
Impact:
The policy changes from automatic learning mode to manual.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Policy automatic learning mode no longer changes to manual when a failover occurs. Automatic learning mode will now be disabled only in active/active configurations.
663326-3 : Thales HSM: "fipskey.nethsm --export" fails to make stub keys
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When using "fipskey.nethsm --export -i /shared/tmp/testkey.pem -o thaleskey" to export a key file from BIG-IP and import into HSM, the HSM fails to generate the stub key at /config/ssl/ssl.key/ on the BIG-IP system.
Conditions:
-- Thales HSM is installed.
-- Running 'fipskey.nethsm --export' to export a key file from BIG-IP and import it to the Thales HSM.
Impact:
Even the key has been stored in HSM, the BIG-IP is still unable to use it because of its lacking stub key to be configured on the BIG-IP system.
Workaround:
This can be worked around by directly using the Thales command, for example:
[root@localhost:Active:Standalone] config # generatekey --import pkcs11 certreq=yes
type: Key type? (DES3, RSA, DES2) [RSA] >
pemreadfile: PEM file containing RSA key? []
> /shared/tmp/testkey.pem
embedsavefile: Filename to write key to? []
> /config/ssl/ssl.key/thales2
plainname: Key name? [] > thales2
x509country: Country code? [] > US
x509province: State or province? [] > WA
x509locality: City or locality? [] >

nvram: Blob in NVRAM (needs ACS)? (yes/no) [no] >
digest: Digest to sign cert req with? (md5, sha1, sha256, sha384, sha512)
[default sha1] >
Fix:
When using 'fipskey.nethsm --export -i /shared/tmp/testkey.pem -o thaleskey' to export a key file from BIG-IP and import into HSM, the HSM now generates a stub key and stores it at /config/ssl/ssl.key/ on the BIG-IP system, as expected.
658852-1 : Empty User-Agent in iSessions requests from APM client on Windows
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
'User-Agent' might be empty in some '/isession' requests from APM client on Microsoft Windows. Having empty User-Agent headers is not in RFC compliance and forces some firewall to block the connection. This might result in failure to establish a VPN tunnel.
Conditions:
'/isession' requests from APM client on Windows.
Impact:
Failure to establish a VPN tunnel.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
All connections from APM client now contain 'User-Agent:' strings, as expected.
655691-1 : GUI image list contains misleading 'MD5 Sum Verified' field
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
In the GUI, images in the Image List and Hotfix List contain a field called 'MD5 Sum Verified', which is misleading since no such verification is actually done.
Conditions:
Using BIG-IP GUI and viewing the Image List and Hotfix List.
Impact:
It appears that MD5 sums are being verified when in reality much more limited tests are done.
Workaround:
N/A
Fix:
Replace 'MD5 Sum Verified' with 'BIG-IP Image Verified' in Image List and Hotfix List in BIG-IP GUI to more accurately reflect our verification procedures.

655021-3 : BIND vulnerability CVE-2017-3138
Solution Article: K23598445
654566-1 : Incomplete files still linked in /shared/vmisolinks
Solution Article: K94822416
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
If copying of an image file is interrupted and leaves a partial file with a .part or .filepart extension, it is still linked in /shared/vmisolinks and synced between blades.
Conditions:
Copy of an image to /shared/images is interrupted and a file with a .part or .filepart extension is left behind.
Impact:
The corrupted copy might appear valid when it is not.
Workaround:
Delete incomplete file copies with extension .part or .filepart.
Fix:
Csyncd ignores files with extensions .part or .filepart in /shared/images.
654109-3 : Configuration loading may fail when iRules calling procs in other iRules are deleted
Solution Article: K01102467
Component: Local Traffic Manager

650002-3 : tzdata bug fix and enhancement update
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
There have been changes to timezone data that impact tzdata packages:
* Mongolia no longer observes Daylight Saving Time (DST).
* The Magallanes Region of Chile has moved from a UTC-04/-03 scheme to UTC-03 all year. Starting 2017-05-13 at 23:00, the clocks for the Magallanes Region will differ from America/Santiago.
Conditions:
-- Mongolia during DST portion of the year.
-- Comparing clock times in the America/Santiago zone with those in the Magallanes Region.
Impact:
Timezone data provided in tzdata will not match the area's time. Clocks for the Magallanes Region will differ from America/Santiago (its current timezone).
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
To accommodate for Mongolia no longer observing DST, the new America/Punta_Arenas zone was created. Changes were also made to support other timezone changes.
* The zone1970.tab file has been added to the list of files to be installed with the tzdata packages installation.
Note: Users of tzdata are advised to upgrade tzdata to zdata-2017b-1.el6
649933-3 : Fragmented RADIUS messages may be dropped
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
Large RADIUS messages may be dropped when processed by iRules.
Conditions:
This occurs when a RADIUS message that exceeds 2048 bytes is processed by an iRule containing the RADIUS::avp command.
Impact:
The RADIUS message will be dropped, and an error will be logged that resembles:
Illegal argument (line 1) (line 1) invoked from within "RADIUS::avp 61 "integer""
Workaround:
Remove RADIUS::avp commands from iRules processing large messages, or ensure that no RADIUS client or server will send large messages.

649904-3 : BIND vulnerability CVE-2017-3136
Solution Article: K23598445
649613-1 : Multiple UDP/TCP packets packed into one DTLS Record
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
The system converts the server provided packet into PPP buffers. These PPP packets are used to pack into DTLS records. Currently there is a limit of about 14 KB of DTLS records, such that the system can pack multiple PPP records into one DTLS record.
However, creating bigger DTLS record can cause server IP Fragmentation. In the lossy environment, losing one IP fragment can cause the complete DTLS record to be lost, resulting in poor performance.
Conditions:
Multiple UDP/TCP packets packed into one DTLS Record.
Impact:
In networks with packet losses, the APM end-user application might suffer poor network performance.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
The system packs one PPP record into one DTLS record, which reduces / eliminates IP Fragmentation and prevents poor performance.
648954-3 : Configuration validation (e.g., ConfigSync) may fail after an iRule is deleted, if the iRule made procedure calls
Solution Article: K01102467
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Configuration validation fails spuriously, including potentially as a result of a ConfigSync or modifying an iRule, with an error similar to the following:
01020036:3: The requested rule (/Common/rule_uses_procs) was not found.
Referencing an iRule that previously existed, but has been deleted (or is being deleted as a result of a ConfigSync).
Conditions:
-- iRule using procedures in a different iRule.

648316 : Flows using DEFLATE decompresion can generate error message during flow tear-down.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Repeated entries in the ltm log will show a completion-code error (comp_code=4) as in the following:
Zip engine ctx eviction (comp_code=4): ctx dropped.
Conditions:
The problem occurs when a flow that requests DEFLATE decompression is terminated when the compression engine is still in the middle of working on an incomplete DEFLATE block.
Impact:
False errors can appear:
o In fields of tmctl rst_cause_stat table, false stats counters will increment for compression and packet errors.
o Log entries with the "Zip engine... (comp_code=4)" appear in ltm log.
Monitors observing the ltm log or stats in the tmctl rst_cause_stat table will see false positives.
Workaround:
Disable hardware acceleration.
Fix:
A new tcl variable, nitrox::comp_suppress_itrunc, was added. It defaults to NO which yields legacy behavior. Setting it to YES causes comp_code=4 (ITRUNC) errors to not propagate as an error.
To enable the feature, add the following line to /config/tmm_init.tcl:
nitrox::comp_suppress_itrunc yes
You will have to restart tmm for the change to take effect.

Conditions:
A FIX profile is be in use and attached to more than one virtual server. You then edit the profile (and click "Update") in this order:
- Change the Error Action from "Don't Forward" to "Drop Connection"
- Add a new mapping to the Sender and Tag Substitution Data Group Mapping.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while mcpd restarts.
Fix:
Prevented MCP from crashing when the FIX profile is edited.
646604-3 : Client connection may hang when NTLM and OneConnect profiles used together
Solution Article: K21005334
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
In deployments where a NT LanManager (NTLM) authentication profile and a OneConnect profile are used together in a LTM virtual server to label an authenticated connection to a Domain Controller (DC); if the persisted connection to the DC is re-used, the connection may hang. A connection in this state may not be cleaned up by the sweeper, resulting in a memory leak.
Conditions:
The NTLM and OneConnect profiles are associated with a LTM virtual server.
Impact:
A client connection won't be serviced and TMM memory will leak. Over a long time period, this may result in more widespread service disruptions.
Workaround:
Avoid the use of OneConnect profiles on virtual servers that use NTLM profiles. The connections to the Domain Controller won't be pooled, but all other features will be retained.
Fix:
Fixed a problem that prevented NTLM and OneConnect profiles from working properly on the same LTM virtual server.

Fix:
Flash files accessed through Portal Access are now loading components into correct Application Domain
645179-3 : Traffic group becomes active on more than one BIG-IP after a long uptime
Solution Article: K42751321
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Traffic-groups become active/active for 30 seconds after a long uptime interval.
Note: Uptime required to encounter this issue is dependent on the number of traffic groups: the more traffic groups, the shorter the uptime.
For example:
-- For 7 traffic groups, the interval is ~710 days.
-- For 15 traffic groups, the interval is ~331 days.
Conditions:
-- Two or more BIG-IP systems defined in a device group for sync/failover.
-- There is one or more traffic groups configured.
-- The BIG-IP systems have a long uptime.
Impact:
Outage due to traffic-group members being active on both systems at the same time.
Workaround:
There is no workaround.
The only option is to reboot all the BIG-IP units in the device group on a regular interval. The interval is directly dependent on the number of traffic groups.
Fix:
Traffic groups no longer becomes active on more than one BIG-IP system in a device group after a long uptime interval.
645101-4 : OpenSSL vulnerability CVE-2017-3732
Solution Article: K44512851
644970-2 : Editing a virtual server config loses SSL encryption on iSession connections
Component: Wan Optimization Manager
Symptoms:
Editing a virtual server configuration causes iSession connection resets or unencrypted iSession connections to be established, because the virtual server's dynamically configured default server-ssl profile has been deleted.
Conditions:
A virtual server has a server-side iSession profile with data-encrypt enabled. This virtual server also lacks client-ssl and server-ssl profiles.
Impact:
After editing the virtual server, iSession connections fail to be established if the destination iSession listener has a client-ssl profile with allow-non-ssl disabled. If the destination iSession listener has allow-non-ssl enabled, unencrypted iSession connections are established.
Workaround:
Modify the virtual server's configured server-side iSession profile. For example toggle the iSession profile from A to B and then back to A.
Fix:
Editing a virtual server configuration no longer deletes
an iSession dynamically configured default server-ssl profile.

Solution Article: K15518610
644489-2 : Unencrypted iSession connection established even though data-encrypt configured in profile
Solution Article: K14899014
Component: Wan Optimization Manager
Symptoms:
iSession connections may be intermittently established as unencrypted even though they are configured to be secure.
Conditions:
Either of two scenarios can result in an unencrypted iSession connection being established:
1) An error occurs during dynamic server-ssl profile replacement.
2) Both the WOM local-endpoint and destination WOM remote-endpoint lack server-ssl profiles.
In both cases the virtual server must have a server-side iSession profile with data-encrypt enabled and the remote virtual must have a client-ssl profile with allow-non-ssl enabled.
Impact:
An unencrypted iSession connection may be established which is inconsistent with configuring data-encrypt as enabled in the sever-side iSession profile.
Workaround:
Configure the client-ssl profile with allow-non-ssl disabled (the default value) to reject non-SSL connections.
Fix:
The outgoing connection is aborted if the server-side iSession profile is configured with data-encrypt enabled and either of the two following scenarios occurs:
1) The destination remote-endpoint and the local-endpoint lack server-ssl profiles.
2) An error occurs during dynamic server-ssl profile replacement.

Conditions:
This happens under certain configuration of Self IP / GTM Servers / GTM Links / LTM Virtual Servers.
Impact:
When conditions are met, the Virtual Server's link information displayed is not correct.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Virtual Server's assigned Link on the LTM Virtual Server Properties page is now displayed correctly.
644184-1 : ZebOS daemons hang while AgentX SNMP daemon is waiting.
Solution Article: K36427438
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:

643210-1 : Restarting MCPD on Secondary Slot of Chassis causes deletion of netHSM keys on SafeNet HSM
Solution Article: K45444280
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When mcpd (re)starts on a secondary slot, part of the initialization process triggers the delete of any netHSM keys on the SafeNet HSM.
Conditions:
This occurs on a chassis that is configured to use a SafeNet netHSM.
Impact:
The key is removed from the HSM and must be reimported to the HSM from a backup, if it exists.
Workaround:
When rebooting a secondary blade, temporarily remove the BIG-IP from the network it uses to connect to the SafeNet HSM. Once the BIG-IP is Active, it is safe to reconnect it to the network.
Fix:
The BIG-IP no longer deletes keys from the Safenet HSM when the key is deleted from the BIG-IP system. Now, you must manually delete keys using fipskey.nethsm or 'cmu delete'.
Important! Delete operations cannot be undone. Before deleting keys on the HSM using one of these commands, make sure that the key is not used by any BIG-IP, because the key deletion on the HSM is irreversible.
Behavior Change:
Beginning with this release, the BIG-IP system will not delete a key from the SafeNet HSM when you delete the corresponding key on the BIG-IP system: You must manually delete the key on the HSM using either fipskey.nethsm or 'cmu delete'.
Important! Delete operations cannot be undone. Before deleting keys on the HSM using one of these commands, make sure that the key is not used by any BIG-IP, because the key deletion on the HSM is irreversible.

638935-7 : Monitor with send/receive string containing double-quote may cause upgrade to fail.★
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
When you upgrade from an affected version, the config gets saved before moving to the new version, thus dropping the enclosing quotes and causing a load failure when booting into the new version.
Conditions:
Configuration where monitor string contains \" (backslash double-quote) but does not contain one of the following characters: ' (single quote), | (pipe), { (open brace), } (close brace), ; (semicolon), # (hashtag), literal newline, or literal space.
Impact:
Configuration fails to load.
Workaround:
Manually edit each string in the bigip.conf to include enclosing quotes in order to get the config to load the first time.
Fix:
Configs load successfully after upgrade. Surrounding quotes, if missing, are added to strings in the bigip.conf file after upgrade. For example:
\"service_status\":\"on\".+\"maintenance\":\"off\" in the recv, send recv-disable and username fields. Output of list ltm monitor and bigip.conf match. Reloading the same config via tmsh does not cause unintentional changes, such as losing a level of escape in monitor strings.
If you have an escaped quote in your configuration, and are moving to a configuration with this the dependency of this fix, you cannot reload the configuration or the license which also reloads the configuration. Doing so, will cause the config load to fail.

624263-3 : iControl REST API sets non-default profile prop to "none"; properties not present in iControl REST API responseiControl REST API, sets profile's non-default property value as "none"; properties missing in iControl REST API response
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
For profiles, iControl REST does not provide visibility for profile property override when "none" is specified, including references, passwords, and array of strings.
Conditions:
-- Use iControl REST API.
-- string, enum, or vector of enum/string property explicitly set to "none" for a component within any REST API endpoint specialized in /etc/icrd.conf.
Impact:
The iControl REST API response skips these elements. iControl REST does not provide visibility for profile property overrides.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
iControl REST API now returns elements (i.e., string, enum, or vector of enum/string property that is explicitly set to "none" for a component within any REST API endpoint specialized in /etc/icrd.conf) with a value "none". The exclusion to this policy is the secured attributes. Secured attributes are always excluded from the iControl REST API response.
624245 : Hung tasks leading to system problems and lack of management access via ssh/GUI
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Problems with bigd, snmpd and other daemons. System becomes inaccessible via ssh and GUI.
Hung tasks recorded in kern logs, typically snmpd, bigd, chmand, big3d hung.
Caused by Centos kernel bug in netlink code where mutex is left locked on error path.
Conditions:
Seen when a system is handling heavy SNMP traffic and memory is low.
Impact:
SNMP traffic fails with hung tasks. Reboot required.
Workaround:
Apparently reducing SNMP load helps avoid/postpone the problem.
624193-1 : Topology load balancing not working as expected
Component: Global Traffic Manager (DNS)
Symptoms:
Under certain conditions, load balancing decisions can result in an unequal or unexpected distribution.
Conditions:
Occurs when topology load balancing is used for a wide IP and more than one pool share the highest assigned score for a particular load balancing decision.
Impact:
The resulting load balancing decisions can lead to an unequal or unexpected distribution of pool selections.
Workaround:
Topology records and pools can be configured to avoid the conditions which cause the condition.
Fix:
A system DB variable, gtm.wideiptoporandom, has been added. When this system DB variable is assigned the value of "enable" and more than one pool shares the highest assigned score for a given load balancing decision, a random pool is selected.
624091 : DHCP relay is not forwarding all of the DHCPOFFERS to clients
Component: Policy Enforcement Manager
Symptoms:
When upgrading from v11.5.3 to v11.6.1, DHCPOFFER packets got silently dropped.
Conditions:
If DHCP clients send broadcast DHCP packets with non-zero unicast source IP address via BIG-IP, and regular DHCP discovery packets(0.0.0.0 source IP addrees), multiple client connection flows are created, after some are aged out, BIG-IP may stop relay DHCP server replies back to clients.
Impact:
BIG-IP will stop to relay DHCPOFFER and DHCPACK back
to DHCP clients
Workaround:
Manually delete all system connection flows by doing "delete sys conn" under tmsh.
623562-1 : Large POSTs rejected after policy already completed
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
When the policy has already completed, access still rejects POSTs greater than 64k. Client will see a reset, and these error messages will appear on the BIG-IP:
/var/log/ltm
Oct 18 19:10:04 bigip6 err tmm[14242]: 01230140:3: RST sent from 10.2.61.80:8080 to 10.2.61.10:55280, [0x1d4cb2c:2863] APM HTTP body too big
/var/log/apm
Oct 19 09:42:37 bigip3922mgmt err tmm1[7636]: 01490514:3: (null):Common:00000000: Access encountered error: ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED. File: ../modules/hudfilter/access/access.c, Function: hud_access_process_ingress, Line: 2960
Conditions:
Policy has already been fully evaluated to allow. Then the client sends a large POST. Only applies to POSTs made to '/'. Would not apply if the URL is something else like '/test'. Also does not apply to clientless modes, where the db key tmm.access.maxrequestbodysize can be used to increase the maximum POST body size allowed.
Impact:
Clients are unable to send POST bodies to '/' that are larger than 64kb, even though the policy has already been evaluated to allow.
Workaround:
Move the resource from '/' to another URL.
Fix:
The logic of '/' in this area was changed to be consistent with other URLs.
623401-4 : Intermittent OCSP request failures due to non-optimal default TCP profile setting
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
The connection between BIG-IP and OCSP responder is not reliable since it uses the default internal TCP configuration which doesn't fit the usage well.
Conditions:
When the OCSP stapling option is enabled in the clientSSL profile that is in use by a virtual server.
Impact:
The BIG-IP as a SSL server fails to staple the OCSP response to the SSL client. In other words, the certificate status messages are not added in the Server Hello message in the TLS handshakes to the SSL client.
Workaround:
The fix proposed an optimal TCP configuration used by the connection between BIG-IP and OCSP responder which makes the connection reliable now. Therefore the virtual server can now always correctly staple the certificate status in the Server Hello message to the SSL client.

622830 : LDAP type CRLDP is parsed incorrectly
Solution Article: K20488861
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
After upgrading to 11.6.1 HF1, CRLDP authentication stopped working.
It can be seen from following sample log that the URL is not parsed correctly:
warning apd[15314]: 0149015e:4: fc98d22d: CRLDP Auth agent: CRL lookup failed for LDAP url 'ldap::::389//crl.certificate.../..../certificaterevocationlist?certificateRevocationList' reason 'Invalid CRLDP URL.
Conditions:
The problem occurs only when LDAP type CRLDP is available in the client certificate and it is used from the CRL Distribution Points list.
Impact:
Users may fail access policy evaluation when client certification is used.
Workaround:
Configure other than LDAP type distribution points in the Certificate or if multiple distribution points are present in the client certificate, make sure other than LDAP type scheme succeeds before hitting LDAP CRLDP.
Fix:
The system now parses LDAP type CRLDP URL correctly, so after upgrading, CRLDP authentication now works as expected.

Workaround:
None.
Fix:
HTTP GET requests to virtual servers using the command "HTTP::cookie <name> <value>" in HTTP_REQUEST iRule event handlers now get a response as expected.
622133-4 : VCMP guests may incorrectly obtain incorrect MAC addresses
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
vCMP guests may be re-configured to use MAC addresses based off an all zero MAC address (00:00:00:00:00:00).
The 'tmsh show net vlan' command will show the vlan interfaces having mostly 0's in the MAC address:
-------------------------------------
Net::Vlan: external
-------------------------------------
Interface Name external
Mac Address (True) 00:00:00:00:00:01
MTU 1500
Tag 3702
Customer-Tag
-------------------------------------
Net::Vlan: internal
-------------------------------------
Interface Name internal
Mac Address (True) 00:00:00:00:00:02
MTU 1500
Tag 3703
Customer-Tag
Conditions:
For this to manifest the vCMP host vcmpd process will have to have had a prior crash or be killed.
In this scenario vcmpd on restart uses a default zero-base MAC address for the guests.
The guests will not use the new zero-based MAC until services are restarted on the guest, on which the new MAC address will take effect.
Impact:
This can cause network issues and conflicts if occurring on multiple guests in the same VLAN as the same MAC addresses will be used.
Workaround:
Restart the guest from the hypervisor.
Fix:
vCMP no longer uses zero-based MACs on vcmpd crash/kill.

618902-3 : PCCD memory usage increases on configuration changes and recompilation due to small amount of memory leak on each compilation
Component: Advanced Firewall Manager
Symptoms:
Each time the Packet Classification Compiler Daemon (PCCD) process recompiles rules due to configuration changes, it loses approximately 20 bytes or more (depends on the rule complexity) due to small memory leak.
Conditions:
This occurs when making changes to the firewall configuration when AFM is configured.
Impact:
This can potentially lead to an out-of-memory situation if the system runs for a long time without reboot and PCCD continuously recompiles due to frequent configuration changes.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
The PCCD memory leak was identified and fixed.
618771-2 : Some Social Security Numbers are not being masked
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
ASM does not block or mask some SSN numbers.

618517-2 : bigd may falsely complain of a file descriptor leak when it cannot open its debug log file
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
- On 11.6.1, bigd will report erroneously mark pool members down and messags similar to the following will be seen in the ltm log file:
Sep 23 10:45:59 bipve1 warning bigd[7413]: 01060154:4: Bigd PID 7413 throttling monitor instance probe because file descriptor limit 65436 reached.
- On 12.1.x, this bug has negligible impact.
Conditions:
Monitoring must be in use, bigd debug logging must be enabled, and the bigd debug log file (/var/log/bigdlog) must be full.
Impact:
- On 11.6.1 this can cause bigd to stop monitoring, resulting in pool members being marked down erroneously.
- In 12.1.x, some of the underlying logging code changed and there is no real impact.
Workaround:
You can rotate the log file, using the following command:
logrotate -f bigdlog
Fix:
Stopped bigd from thinking it was out of file descriptors when it was unable to open its debug log file.
618324-2 : Unknown/Undefined OPSWAT ID show up as 'Any' in APM Visual Policy Editor
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
When upgrading from OPSWAT SDK V3 to V4, opening Access Policy in VPE if one of the opswat checker (e.g. Anti-Virus checker) contains an Undefined (i.e. previously defined but out of support) ID it will display as "Any." The correct display should be "Unsupported" or "Invalid" product.

Fix:
Fixed.
617862-1 : Fastl4 handshake timeout is absolute instead of relative
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
TCP connections that are pending completion of the three-way handshake are expired based on the absolute value of handshake timeout. For example, if handshake timeout is 5 seconds, then the connection is reset after 5 seconds of receiving the initial SYN from the client.
Conditions:
A TCP connection in three-way handshake.
Impact:
Connections are expired prematurely if they are still in three-way handshake.
Workaround:
Disable handshake timeout.
Impact of workaround: Your TCP handshake will not prematurely timeout and connections remains open until the Idle Timeout expires.
Fix:
The handshake timeout now expires based on idleness of the connection, taking into consideration of any SYN retransmissions, etc., that might occur.
617858-1 : bigd core when using Tcl monitors
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
If a Tcl monitor encounters an error, it may exit with an assert which causes bigd to core.
Conditions:
This can occur rarely when Tcl monitors are in use (specifically, SMTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3 monitors).
Impact:
bigd can core, which temporarily suspends monitoring while bigd restarts.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Now, when a Tcl monitor encounters an error, it no longer exits with an assert, so bigd no longer cores.
617824-2 : "SSL::disable/enable serverside" + oneconnect reuse is broken
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
If "SSL::disable/enable serverside" is configured in an iRule and oneConnect is configured in the iRule or in the Virtual Server profile, BIG-IP may not receive the backend server's HTTP response for every client's HTTP Request.
Conditions:
1. "SSL::disable/enable serverside" exists in the iRule
2. OneConnect is configured in the iRule or in the VS profile
3. apply the iRule and oneConnect Profile to the VS.
Impact:
The oneConnect behavior is unexpected, and may not get the backend Server's HTTP response for every client's HTTP Request.
Workaround:

609674-2 : machine certificate check creates issuer string with DC with reverse order
Solution Article: K38333488
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Machine certificate check on MAC creates issuer string with incorrect domain component (DC) order if it has any domain component in the certificate.
For example, if DC in certificate says f5net.com, issuer DC string should look like "DC=f5net, DC=com" but instead, it's in reverse order (DC="com", DC="f5net").
Conditions:
Machine certificate check configured on BIG-IP systems, certificate contains DC components.
Impact:
Machine certificate check might fail.
Workaround:
For access policies with machine certificate check targeted towards MAC, the order of DC should be reversed (compared to access policy with machine certificate check targeted towards Microsoft Windows) in the regex configured in machine certificate check.
Fix:
DC order evaluated by MAC is correctly ordered now and matches with that of Microsoft Windows.
Behavior Change:
Previously, machine certificate check on MAC creates issuer string with incorrect domain component (DC) order if it has any domain component in the certificate.
For example, if DC in certificate says f5net.com, issuer DC string should look like "DC=f5net, DC=com" but instead, it's in reverse order (DC="com", DC="f5net"). Now, DC order evaluated by MAC is correctly ordered now and matches with that of Microsoft Windows.

Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Occasionally the logging system prints out a blank message, similar to the following example:
-- err mcpd[19114]: 01070711:3:
For this log statement, there is text associated with the error in the bigip_mcpd_error_defs.in file, so something should be logged.
Conditions:
The problem is the result of an exception handler issue in mcpd's File Object validator. The damaged logs can come from anywhere in mcpd, but appear only after a File Object configuration change fails validation. If the problem occurs, it will happen only once per validation error. The damage caused by the exception handler is automatically corrected when the system rewrites the log.
Impact:
Except for the missing log text, the state and behavior of the BIG-IP system is unaffected.
Workaround:
None. The problem corrects automatically when the system rewrites the log.
Fix:
The logging system prints out a blank message in response to failed file object configuration change validations.

TMM may restart when new SAML SSO configuration is created on BIG-IP systems as SAML IdP. This could also happen when BIG-IP is restarted, or a saved configuration containing SAML SSO objects is loaded on running BIG-IP.
Conditions:
All of the following
- The BIG-IP system is used as SAML IdP
- New SAML SSO configuration is added on BIG-IP
- Rarely occurring internal tmconf error happens when processing newly added configuration.
Impact:
TMM may restart.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
TMM no longer restarts when internal error happens upon adding new SAML SSO configurations. Instead, the system logs the following error in /var/log/apm to indicate problematic configuration object: Internal error processing sso config <name>.
608320-4 : iControl REST API sets non-default persistence profile prop to "none"; properties not present in iControl REST API responseiControl REST API, sets persistence profile's non-default property value as "none"; properties missing in iControl REST API response
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
For persistence profiles, iControl REST does not provide visibility for property override when "none" is specified, including references, passwords, and array of strings.
Conditions:
-- Use iControl REST API with persistence profiles.
-- string, enum, or vector of enum/string property explicitly set to "none" for a component within any REST API endpoint specialized in /etc/icrd.conf.
Impact:
The iControl REST API response skips these elements. iControl REST does not provide visibility for persistence profile property overrides.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
iControl REST API now returns persistence profile elements (i.e., string, enum , or vector of enum/string property that is explicitly set to "none" for a component within any REST API endpoint specialized in /etc/icrd.conf) with a value "none". The exclusion to this policy is the secured attributes. Secured attributes are always excluded from the iControl REST API response.
607713-4 : SIP Parser fails header with multiple sequential separators inside quoted string.
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
SIP Parser fails header with multiple sequential separators inside quoted string.
Conditions:
If a SIP header contains multiple attribute separators ',' or ';' in an attribute.
Impact:
The SIP parser flags the message as an error. If this occurs in a quote within the attribute, it should be allowed, but it will still fail, Valid SIP messages are failing to be parsed.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
The SIP parser has been improved to ignore multiple sequential separators if within quotes.
607360-2 : Safenet 6.2 library missing after upgrade★
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
After upgrading BIG-IP, a symbolic link is missing to the core Safenet library.
Conditions:
This occurs when a BIG-IP installation with Safenet 6.2 already installed is upgraded.
Impact:
Safenet 6.2 is not functional.
Workaround:
Reinstall Safenet 6.2. Or,
run this command at all blades of BIG-IP after the installation.
ln -sf /shared/safenet/toolkit/libgem.so /usr/lib64/openssl/engines/libgem.so
Fix:
Add symbolic link to libgem at time of pkcs11d daemon start/restart.
607314-3 : Oracle Java vulnerability CVE-2016-3500, CVE-2016-3508
Solution Article: K25075696
607304-2 : TMM is killed by SOD (missing heartbeat) during geoip_reload performing munmap.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
TMM is killed by SOD (missing heartbeat) during geoip_reload performing munmap.
Conditions:
This can occur under normal operation, while running the geo_update command.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
606575-3 : Request-oriented OneConnect load balancing ends when the server returns an error status code.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Request-oriented OneConnect load balancing ends when the server returns an error status code.
Conditions:
OneConnect is enabled and the server responds with a HTTP error status code.
Impact:
The client remains connected to the server, and no further load-balancing decisions are made.
Workaround:
It may be possible to detect the HTTP status code in the response, and manually detach the client-side.
To do so, use an iRule similar to the following:
when HTTP_RESPONSE {
if { [HTTP::status] == 200 } { return }
if { [HTTP::status] == 401 } {
set auth_header [string tolower [HTTP::header values "WWW-Authenticate"]]
if { $auth_header contains "negotiate" || $auth_header contains "ntlm" } {
# Connection-oriented auth. System should already be doing the right thing
unset auth_header
return
}
unset auth_header
}
catch { ONECONNECT::detach enable }
}.
Note: These workarounds should not be used when the backend server is using connection-oriented HTTP authentication (e.g., NTLM or Negotiate authentication).
Fix:
With OneConnect, the client-side remains detachable when the server-side returns an HTTP error status code.
606540-1 : DB variable changed via GUI does not sync across HA group
Solution Article: K33064211
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
If a configuration change is made in the BIG-IP GUI which is backed by a DB variable, the change is not synced to other devices in the same sync-failover device group.
If the same db variable change is made using the Traffic Management Shell (tmsh), the db variable change will be synced to other devices in the same sync-failover device group.
Note that db variable changes are never synced to devices in sync-only device groups.
Conditions:
1. BIG-IP systems in HA group, provisioned with modules (in addition to LTM) which create their own device groups (for example, ASM).
2. Original sync-failover device group replaced by a different sync-failover device group.
3. Using the GUI to change a configuration item which is backed by a DB variable.
Examples include:
failover.standby.linkdowntime (GUI: Device Management :: Device Groups : <fodg_name> : Failover : Link Down Time on Failover )
statemirror.clustermirroring (GUI: Device Management :: Devices : <device_name> : Cluster Options )
Impact:
Configuration of devices within a sync-failover device group may not be synchronized as expected.
Workaround:
To force synchronization of a db variable change made via the GUI, use a tmsh command of the following form:
tmsh modify cm device-group <sync-failover device group name> devices modify { <device name> { set-sync-leader } }
If the sync-failover device group is not automatically synced, manually sync the device group:
tmsh run cm config-sync to-group <sync-failover device group name>
To avoid creating a db variable change that will not be synchronized across sync-failover device group members, change the configuration or db variable using tmsh:
tmsh modify sys db <variable name> value <new value>
If the sync-failover device group is not automatically synced, manually sync the device group:
tmsh run cm config-sync to-group <sync-failover device group name>
Fix:
DB variable changed via GUI now syncs across HA group as expected.
605921 : scriptd and mcpd cores following multiple failovers due to bd (asm)
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
You encounter multiple failovers due to BD (asm) failure and mcpd coring. the GUI is sluggish, then bd becomes unresponsive or mcpd cores.
Conditions:
Apply policies on a device at the same time that it becomes the Master Blade.
Impact:
A deadlock condition can occur when policies are being applied at the same time as a change arrives in the cluster config.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Fixed a deadlock condition when applying policies.
605865-2 : Debug TMM produces core on certain ICMP PMTUD packets
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
The debug TMM will produce a core on the assert "cwnd or ssthresh too low" when receiving an ICMP PMTUD packet with an MTU larger than the current MTU. This does not affect the default TMM.
Conditions:
While using the debug TMM, an ICMP PMTUD packet is received with an MTU larger than the current MTU.
Impact:
Debug TMM crashes on assert "cwnd or ssthresh too low." Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Workaround:
Block incoming ICMP PMTUD packets. Note that this will cause Path MTU Discovery to fail, and IP packets sent by the BIG-IP system with the Don't Fragment (DF) bit set may be dropped silently if the MTUs of the devices on the path are configured incorrectly.
Fix:
The system now always updates TCP MSS after an ICMP PMTUD packet, so there is no debug TMM core.
605616-3 : Creating 256 Fundamental Security policies will result in an out of memory error
Solution Article: K16221342
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
ASM out of memory error will occur when 256 fundamental security policies are created.
Conditions:

Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Improved memory allocations for shared XML profiles to enable more than 256 fundamental security policies.
605476-2 : istatsd can core when reading corrupt stats files.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
-- The istatsd process produces a core file in the /shared/core directory.
Conditions:
This issue occurs when the following condition is met:
The istatsd process attempts to read a corrupt iStats segment file with duplicate FIDs.
Under these conditions, the istatsd process continually consumes memory which produces a core causing the istatsd process to restart.
Impact:
iStatsd process will restart due to resource exhaustion.
Workaround:
To work around this issue, you can remove the iStats files and restart the istatsd processes. To do so, perform the following procedure:
Impact of workaround: This workaround will cause all statistics in the iStats files to reset.
1. Log in to the BIG-IP command line.
2. To stop the istatsd and related processes, type the following command:
tmsh stop sys service istatsd avrd merged.
3. To delete the iStats files, type the following command:
find /var/tmstat2/ -depth -type f -delete.
4. To start the istatsd and related processes, type the following command:
tmsh start sys service istatsd avrd merged.
Fix:
Added a fix to protect against a continually reading a segment file that is corrupted and has Duplicate Fids.

604923-3 : REST id for Signatures change after update
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
The REST id of existing signatures are unexpectedly modified after updating a User Defined Signature, or downloading an Attack Signature Update that modifies existing signatures.
Conditions:
A User-Defined Signature is updated, or an ASU containing updated signatures is downloaded.
Impact:
The REST id of the modified signatures is changed which may confuse REST clients.
Workaround:
Execution of the following script will repair an affected device:
perl -MF5::Utils::Rest -MF5::DbUtils -MF5::ASMConfig::Entity::Signature -e '$dbh = F5::DbUtils::get_dbh(); $dbh->begin_work(); $dbh->do("UPDATE PLC.NEGSIG_SIGNATURES SET rest_uuid = \"\" "); F5::Utils::Rest::populate_uuids(dbh => $dbh, rest_entities => ["F5::ASMConfig::Entity::Signature"]); $dbh->commit();'
Fix:
Updated Signatures now retain the correct REST id.
604767-4 : Importing SAML IdP's metadata on BIG-IP as SP may result in not complete configuration of IdP connector object.
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
When importing SAML IdP's metadata, certificate object might not be assigned as 'idp-certificate' value of saml-idp-connector object.
Conditions:
BIG-IP is used as SAML SP.
Impact:
Described behavior will result in misconfiguration. SAML WebSSO will subsequently fail.
Workaround:
Manually assign imported certificate as a 'idp-certificate' value of saml-idp-connector object.
604496-2 : SQL (Oracle) monitor daemon might hang.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
SQL (Oracle) monitor daemon might hang with high monitoring load (hundreds of monitors). DBDaemon debug log contains messages indicating hung connection aborting and that the address in use, unable to connect.
Conditions:
High number of SQL (Oracle, MSSQL, MySQL, PostgresSQL) monitors. Slow SQL responses might make the condition worse.
Impact:
Flapping pool members connected to SQL monitors. Frequent aborts and restarts of SQL monitor daemon.
Workaround:
You can mitigate this issue in the following ways:
-- Reduce number of monitored pool members.
-- Reduce frequency of monitor interval.
-- Split monitors among multiple devices.
-- Run monitors on bladed systems.
Fix:
This release fixes the address-in-use issue, and contains multiple monitor improvements to handle aborts and restarts of the SQL monitor daemon as well so that the system handles hung connections without aborting.
604442-1 : iControl log

604223-1 : pkcs11d signal handler improvement to turn off all threads at time of "SIGTERM"
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
The current signal handler use 'exit' at time of 'SIGTERM'. This may result in a core under some abnormal situations.
Conditions:
When stopping pkcs11d using command like 'bigstart restart pkcs11d' or 'kill pkcs11d'.
Impact:
pkcs11d cores.
Workaround:
pkcs11d automatically comes up again after the core.
Fix:
The system now waits for all threads to finish before the pkcs11d program exits, so the core no longer occurs.
603945-1 : BD config update should be considered as config addition in case of update failure
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
A configuration update fails when the system cannot find the item to update. Configuration failures are shown in bd.log.
Conditions:
The condition that leads to this scenario is not clear and is still under investigation.
Impact:
The update fails and the entity is not added.
Workaround:
Delete the faulty entity and re-add, and then issue the following command: restart asm.
This fixes the issue in the cases in which it is a single entity.
Fix:
A configuration update no longer fails when the system cannot find the item to update. Now, the system adds the item with its updated value if the entity does not already exist. Otherwise, the operation updates the value of the existing entry.
603667-3 : TMM may leak or corrupt memory when configuration changes occur with plugins in use
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
TMM may leak memory when plugins are in use and the plugin is re-initialized (typically due to configuration changes). In rare cases, memory corruption may occur causing TMM to restart.
Conditions:
Plugin-based functionality configured (ASM, APM, etc.) and configuration changes occur.
Impact:
The memory leakage generally occurs infrequently and at a rate that TMM operations are not affected. However, when memory corruption occurs, a traffic interruption may occur due to TMM restarting.
Workaround:
No workaround except disabling plugin-based functionality (such as ASM, APM, etc.).
Fix:
TMM now properly manages plugin memory, and no longer leaks or corrupts this memory.
603606 : tmm core

Workaround:
None.
603598-2 : big3d memory under extreme load conditions
Component: Global Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
big3d memory consumption can grow if big3d is unable to process monitor requests in a timely fashion.
This can be seen by monitoring the memory consumption of big3d using standard OS tools such as top.
Conditions:
big3d maintains a queue for monitor requests.
Incoming monitor requests are first placed in the Pending queue.
Requests are moved from the Pending queue to the Active queue, if there is room in the Active queue.
When the Pending queue is full, there is no room for the Monitor Request. big3d attempts to clean up the Monitor request, but fails to completely free the memory.
This might result in a significant memory leak.
For this to happen, the Active queue must be full as well as the Pending queue.
One possible condition that might cause this is if multiple Monitors time out. This results in Monitors having long life times, which keeps the Active queue full.
Thus the Pending queue might become full and the memory leak can occur.
In BIG-IP 11.1.0 versions of big3d,
the Active queue has 256 slots and
the Pending queue has 4096 slots.
In BIG-IP 11.1.0-hf3, the queue sizes were expanded to
2048 for the Active queue and 16384 for the Pending queue.
Since the queues were smaller n versions prior to
11.1.0-hf3, this leaks is more likely to manifest itself.
In later versions, the leak is still possible, but is less likely to occur.
Impact:
big3d memory consumption grows unbounded. This might result in a big3d restart or memory starvation of other processes.
Workaround:
This can be partially mitigated by ensuring that monitors
settings are reasonable and that big3d is not overloaded.
This will minimize the chances that the Pending queue
does not become full.
There is no mechanism to resize the queues.
Fix:
When a monitor request is unable to be placed in the queue, the memory for the request is freed properly.
603479-1 : "ASM starting" while it's already running, causing the restart of all ASM daemons
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
ASM daemons suddenly restart, w/ the message "ASM Starting" in '/var/log/asm', while ASM is already running and without ASM stopping first.
Conditions:
Unknown
Impact:
ASM daemons restart
Workaround:
N/A
Fix:
We have prevented the ASM start script from being executed if it is already running.
Thus, preventing the possibility of a spurious ASM Start while it's already running.
603293-3 : Incorrect handling of L4 Dynamic ACL when it is processed together with L7 ACLs
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
L4 Dynamic ACL is not applied to incoming traffic when assigned in combination with L7 ACL.
Conditions:
APM supports a combination of L7 ACL and L4 ACL to be assigned to one session. When L7 ACLs are assigned with higher priority than L4 ACLs, the processing of L4 ACLs is automatically deferred until L7 information is available. The issue here is that when none of L7 ACLs with higher priority match with the traffic, L4 ACL is incorrectly marked to be applied only to HTTP traffic. Therefore if the incoming traffic is not HTTP, for example, HTTPS, then this particular dynamic L4 ACL is bypassed.
Impact:
L4 Dynamic ACL is not applied correctly.
Workaround:
Reorder L4 ACLs with higher priority than L7 ACLs, if possible, or to prevent the issue from occurring, avoid assigning L7 ACLs if not needed.
Fix:
When L7 ACL is assigned in combination to L4 Dynamic ACL, L4 Dynamic ACL is correctly applied to all kinds of traffic, not only HTTP traffic.
603236-2 : 1024 and 4096 size key creation issue with SafeNet 6.2 with 6.10.9 firmware
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Creating 1024 and 4096 size keys fail when the SafeNet client version installed on BIG-IP is 6.2 and SafeNet appliance firmware is 6.10.9.
Conditions:
-- SafeNet appliance: 6.2.
-- SafeNet client: 6.2.
-- SafeNet firmware: 6.10.9.
Impact:
Cannot create 1024 or 4096 size RSA keys.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Removed the config line, RSAKeyGenMechRemap = 1, that was conflicting with 6.10.9 firmware.
603149-1 : Large ike-phase2-lifetime-kilobytes values in racoon ipsec-policy
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Setting max data limit transmitted (in kilobytes) to a very large limit results in a smaller limit, causing SAs to expire too quickly. Values for ike-phase2-lifetime-kilobytes inside ipsec-policy can reach 2^32-1 kilobytes, but will be processed incorrectly, as if the value were smaller.
Conditions:
When lifetime-kilobytes is large enough, it can act as though it were smaller.
Impact:
Negotiated SAs expire too quickly when size lifetime is calculated too small.
Workaround:
Before the fix, decrease lifetime-kilobytes until properly stable.
Fix:
The fix should make every value no more than 4294967295 kilobytes work correctly, without becoming some smaller value. (Note this value is 2^32-1.) If the size of ike-phase2-lifetime-kilobytes becomes 64-bit in the future, this will also work, causing a 64-bit value for kilobytes to occur in isakmp negotiation.
603082-2 : Ephemeral pool members are getting deleted/created over and over again.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When fqdn nodes are configured, you may see ephemeral pool members getting created and deleted continuously. In severe cases, this can cause mcpd to run out of memory and crash.
Conditions:
It is not known exactly what triggers this condition, but it has been observed after running bigstart restart in a configuration containing many fqdn nodes.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while mcpd restarts.
603071-1 : XHTML validation fails on obfuscated JavaScript
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
The obfuscated JavaScript injected by ASM for CSRF protection and other features causes web pages to fail w3c validation.
Conditions:
CSRF or WebScrapping enabled in ASM policy
Impact:
Threre is no end user impact, but if checking the page with w3c online validator it returns errors
Workaround:
N/A
Fix:
Wrapped the script in CDATA - the validator will not complain on errors.
603032-2 : clientssl profiles with sni-default enabled may leak X509 objects
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
SSL memory consumption grows when virtuals with sni-default-enabled clientssl profiles are modified.
Conditions:
clientssl profile with sni-default enabled combined with configuration manipulations of virtuals with such profiles.
Impact:
The amount of leakage will depending on the number of virtuals with sni-default-enabled clientssl profiles and frequency of configuration manipulations. For large configurations, the leakage can be very noticeable over time.
Workaround:
No workaround short of not using sni-default.
Fix:
SSL now handles sni-default-enabled clientssl profiles without leaking the X509 objects.

Fix:
Installation script is updated for Safenet 6.2 HA.
602358-2 : BIG-IP ServerSSL connection may reset during rengotiation with some SSL/TLS servers due to ClientHello version
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
During SSL/TLS renegotiation, the TLS standard requires that the new ClientHello version matches the first session.
Usually, SSL/TLS servers require the new ClientHello version to match the previous negotiated (ServerHello) version. The BIG-IP ServerSSL default behavior is to match this requirement.
The problem occurs if the SSL/TLS server requires the ClientHello (both in the Record layer and Handshake Protocol) in the new ClientHello to be exactly the same as the SSL/TLS version of the first ClientHello; that is:
************************************************************
1st ClientHello record layer version == 2nd ClientHello record layer version;
1st ClientHello Handshake Protocol version == 2nd ClientHello Handshake Protocol version.
************************************************************
As a result, the SSL/TLS server will reject the renegotiation handshake, causing the connection to terminate.
Conditions:
This occurs when using virtual servers configured with one or more ServerSSL profiles, and an SSL/TLS renegotiation occurs, and the server requires the new ClientHello version to match the first ClientHello instead of the previous ServerHello version.
Impact:
SSL/TLS renegotiation between BIG-IP ServerSSL profile and server may fail, resulting in an unexpected connection close or reset.
Workaround:
Manually setting the ciphers in the ServerSSL to TLS1.0 can solve the issue.
Fix:
A new db variable called ssl.RenegotiateWithInitialClientHello has been added to control the SSL/TLS version in the 2nd ClientHello:
1. The default is disable, which means that the 2nd ClientHello SSL/TLS version will be set to the negotiated version in the 1st round ServerHello.
2. If it is set to enable, both ClientHello versions will be exactly the same.

601905-4 : POST requests may not be forwarded to backend server when EAM plugin is enabled on the virtual server
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
POST requests appear to hang when they are sent through a virtual server with EAM plugin enabled.
Conditions:
Most likely, the POST request contains large post data.
Impact:
The POST request will fail.
Workaround:
The following iRule will workaround the issue:
when HTTP_REQUEST {

This occurs when the following conditions are met:
-- Virtual server with OCSP Stabling enabled.
-- iRule attached to the virtual server that uses SSL::renegotiate.
Impact:
TMM memory used increases gradually, eventually the aggressive mode sweeper is activated.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Using certain iRules on virtual servers with OCSP Stapling enabled on the Client SSL profile no longer causes OCSP requests to be reissued, so there is no associated memory leak.
601420-2 : Possible SAML authentication loop with IE and multi-domain SSO.
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
When APM is configured with SAML authentication and multi-domain SSO, Internet Explorer may encounter authentication loop and never complete the access policy.
Conditions:
APM is configured with SAML authentication and multi-domain SSO.
Impact:
Using Internet Explorer, the client may not be unable to connect to its desired destination.
Workaround:
Chrome and Firefox do not seem to be affected.
Fix:
Use cookie for session for multi-domain if TOKEN lookup fails. Previously, the cookie was ignored for multi-domain response URI. However, with the introduction of TOKEN based session lookup, this causes a failure if the client retries the request (since the TOKEN was consumed in the request prior to the retry).
601255-3 : RTSP response to SETUP request has incorrect client_port attribute
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
- Clientside data is sent to UDP port 0
- RTSP response to SETUP request contains incorrect 'client_port' attribute (0)
Conditions:
- Virtual with RTSP profile.
- 200/OK is received from server in response to the initial SETUP request
- SETUP request was the initial message received on a new connection
Impact:
Unicast media may forwarded to incorrect UDP port (0).
Fix:
Initialize 'client_port' attribute to value received from server when re-writing response to client.
601180-1 : Link Controller base license does not allow DNS namespace iRule commands.★
Solution Article: K73505027
Component: Global Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
The Link Controller base license improperly prevents DNS namespace iRule commands.
Conditions:
A Link Controller license without an add-on that allows Layer 7 iRule commands.
Impact:
An administrator cannot add DNS namespace commands to an iRule. Cannot upgrade from a pre-11.5 configuration, where the commands were working, to 11.5.4 through 12.1.2.
Workaround:
To enable upgrade, remove DNS namespace commands from the configuration prior to upgrade.
Fix:
DNS namespace iRule commands are now properly accepted with a Link Controller base license.
601178-3 : HTTP cookie persistence 'preferred' encryption
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When encryption is 'preferred' in the http cookie persistence profile, when the client presents a plain-text route domain formatted cookie the BIG-IP will ignore the cookie and re-load balance the connection.
Conditions:
This occurs when route-domain-compatible cookies are sent in plaintext.
Impact:
Cookie does not get accepted by the persistence profile and flow does not persist.
600982-1 : TMM crashes at ssl_cache_sid() with "prf->cache.sid == 0"
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When SSL is configured, the TMM might rarely crash, logging the following error in /var/log/ltm: notice panic: ../modules/hudfilter/ssl/ssl_session.c:538: Assertion "cached" failed.
Conditions:
No conditions to be set, however this is a very rare occurrence in which a random number generator can technically generate the number Zero ( 0 ) which would trigger this.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while TMM restarts, and failover occurs if high availability is configured. Mirroring and LB may be lost with renegotiation for certain types of traffic.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
When SSL is configured, the TMM no longer intermittently crashes with the message: Assertion "cached" failed.
600827-5 : Stuck nitrox crypto queue can erroneously be reported
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
In some cases, a stuck crypto queue can be erroneously detected on Nitrox systems (Nitrox PX and Nitrox 3). When the tmm/crypto stats are examined, they show no queued requests. The message "Hardware Error(Co-Processor): n3-crypto0 request queue stuck" will appear in the ltm log file.
Conditions:
Nitrox based system performing SSL under heavy load.
Impact:
Device errors reported in logs and crypto HA action is taken, possibly resulting in failing over.
Fix:
The Nitrox crypto driver uses a proper timeout value for crypto requests.
600662-4 : NAT64 vulnerability CVE-2016-5745
Solution Article: K64743453
600593-4 : Use of HTTP Explicit Proxy and OneConnect can lead to an issue with CONNECT HTTP requests
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
After a CONNECT request is sent to the BIG-IP system and processed, if the client disconnects before a response is received from the server, the FIN is not propagated to the server-side and that connection remains open. If a client sends another CONNECT request to the same destination, the previous server-side flow is reused for the new request. Inspection of packet captures reveals that the BIG-IP system does not process the new CONNECT request as such, but instead forwards it to the server using the old server-side flow. This behaviour is incorrect. The CONNECT method should disable connection reuse, and the BIG-IP should close the server-side flow if the client disconnects first.
Conditions:
Use of HTTP Explicit Proxy and OneConnect together. CONNECT requests must arrive to the virtual server. The client must disconnect before the server responds.
Impact:
Some connections may fail. Depending on what data is sent to the server over an unintended connection, unpredictable results may be experienced.
Workaround:
You can apply the following iRule to the HTTP Explicit Proxy virtual server to mitigate the issue:
when HTTP_PROXY_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::method] equals "CONNECT" } {
ONECONNECT::reuse disable
}
else {
ONECONNECT::reuse enable
}
}
600558-3 : Errors logged after deleting user in GUI
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
After deleting a user in the BIG-IP GUI (under Access Policy :: Local User DB : Manage Users), the following symptoms may be observed:
1. After approximately 10 minutes, an error similar to the following appears in the LTM log (/var/log/ltm):
mcpd[25939]: 01070418:5: connection 0x5dde19c8 (user admin) was closed with active requests
This message may also appear in /var/log/webui.log and /var/log/tomcat/catalina.out.
2. After clicking Refresh, the GUI may not show the correct web page.
Conditions:
This has been reported most frequently when deleting local users (Access Policy :: Local User DB : Manage Users), but has been encountered in other ways. The issue might require deleting a user and then remaining on the Manage Users page until an internal timeout of approximately 10 minutes passes.
Impact:
Error messages logged.
GUI may not show the correct web page.
Workaround:
Use the CLI (tmsh) to delete local users.
Fix:
Errors are no longer logged after deleting user in GUI.
600535 : TMM may core while exiting if MCPD connection was previously aborted
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
TMM cores while exiting after MCPD has spontaneously restarted.
Conditions:
MCPD aborts connection to TMM, typically due to fatal internal configuration errors causing MCPD to exit. This is generally a rarely occurring issue.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Workaround:
This issue has no workaround at this time.
Fix:
TMM no longer cores when exiting.

600174-1 : Wildcard "*" redirection domain cannot be deleted if list is scrollable
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
Wildcard "*" redirection domain cannot be deleted if list is scrollable
Conditions:
Add redirection domains until list becomes scrollable (at least 4 or 5)
Impact:
first redirection domain in the list cannot be deleted
Workaround:

Fix:
Any redirection domain can be removed from the list
600116-1 : DNS resolution request may take a long time in some cases
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
DNS resolution may appear slow in some cases
Conditions:
All of following conditions should be met
1) DNS Relay proxy is installed on user's machine
2) User's machine has multiple network adapters and some of them are in disconnected state.
Impact:
DNS resolution will be slow
Workaround:
Disable network adapters that are not connected.
Fix:
Now DNS Relay proxy server doesn't proxy DNS servers on non-connected interfaces. This fixes slow resolution DNS issue.
600069-3 : Portal Access: Requests handled incorrectly
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
In some cases Portal Access requests do not return the intended resource.
Conditions:
Portal Access configured
Impact:
In some cases Portal Access requests do not return the intended resource.
Fix:
Improve Portal Access request processing
599536-2 : IPsec peer with wildcard selector brings up wrong phase2 SAs
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
If a remote IPsec peer sends a wildcard (0.0.0.0/0 <-> 0.0.0.0/0) traffic-selector in phase2, the BIG-IP system will find a match against a non-wildcard selector and use that policy to complete phase2 negotiation.
You may encounter this problem if you have one or more remote peers attempting to negotiate phase2 with wildcard traffic-selectors. An IPsec tunnel may start but fail to pass data and at the same time another IPsec tunnel may stop working.
Conditions:
The remote IPsec peer sends a wildcard (0.0.0.0/0 <-> 0.0.0.0/0) traffic-selector in phase2. Phase1 must be established first.
Impact:
A tunnel will start, but data communication (over ESP or AH) will fail.
Other tunnels may be subject to an accidental DOS when a peer establishes phase1 but uses wildcard traffic-selectors in phase2. A traffic-selector matched by wildcard might be bound to a tunnel already in use, which is then taken offline by the new Security Associations.
Fix:
Ensure that phase2 negotiation using a wildcard (0.0.0.0/0 <-> 0.0.0.0/0) traffic-selector does not establish a Security Association with an ipsec-policy associated with a non-wildcard traffic-selector.
Behavior Change:
Previously, a wildcard selector was able to match a non-wildcard selector, and thus engage the wrong (IPsec) tunnel to attempt negotiation, usually failing.
In effect, a wildcard selector was able to bind to the wrong peer; but after this change only the right peer should bind. This cleans up behavior of selector as identity key, and prevents subjecting random wrong peers from noise.
599521-2 : Persistence entries not added if message is routed via an iRule
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
MRF SIP route table implementation does not add a persistence entry if the message was routed via an iRule.
Conditions:
If the message is routed via an iRule, a SIP persistence entry will not be created.
Impact:
Since MRF SIP persistence may be bidirectional, not having the persistence entry will keep message flowing in the opposite direction from being automatically routed via persistence.
Workaround:
An iRule could be used to route messages directed towards the original client.
Fix:
MRF SIP will add a persistence entry for message routed via an iRule.

598981-2 : APM ACL does not get enforced all the time under certain conditions
Solution Article: K06913155
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
APM ACL does not get enforced all the time under certain conditions
Conditions:
The following conditions individually increase the chances for this problem to occur:
1. The device is very busy. (Construction of ACL windows is prolonged.)
2. Concentration of connections into one TMM. (e.g., VPN feature.)
3. Small number of TMMs (e.g., BIG-IP low-end platform, Virtual Edition (VE) configurations.)
4. Application starts with a high number of concurrent connections.
Impact:
ACL is not applied for subsequent connections for that TMM. This issue does not consistently reproduce.
Workaround:
Mitigation:
Administrator can kill the affected session, which forces the user to re-login, and ultimately restarts the ACL construction process.
Fix:
Switching context when applying ACL is properly processed, and no longer cause ACL to be not enforced.
598909-1 : SQL produces errors. AVR does not display any statistics.
Component: Application Visibility and Reporting
Symptoms:
SQL produces errors. AVR does not display any statistics. AFM, APM, ASM, AVR, FPS and SWG might be non-functional.
Conditions:
In version 11.6.0 and 11.6.1, there is an issue that occurs intermittently during software build operations.
Impact:
SQL produces errors. AVR does not display any statistics.
Workaround:
If occurs:
1. Edit file /var/avr/avr_srv_code.sql.
2. Make sure that the following text starts in a new line:
'# Old tables (for DB upgrade only)'
3. touch /var/avr/init_avrdb.
4. Restart the Monpd daemon: bigstart restart monpd.
Fix:
SQL no longer produces errors in response to an intermittent issue that occurred during software build operations.
598874-3 : GTM Resolver sends FIN after SYN retransmission timeout
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
If a DNS server is not responding to TCP SYN, GTM Resolver sends a FIN after a retransmission timeout (RTO) of the SYN.
Conditions:
GTM Resolver tries to open a TCP connection to a server that does not respond.
Impact:
Firewalls may log the FIN as a possible attack.
Fix:
Do not send anything in response to a SYN retransmission timeout.
598854-1 : sipdb tool incorrectly displays persistence records without a pool name
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
MRF SIP persistence records added for a forwarding route (a peer object without a pool), will not be displayed properly by sipdb
Conditions:
If a persistence record is added for a route that does not contain a pool, this persistence entry will not be displayed correctly.
Impact:
The persistence entry is correctly stored in the persistence table and will operate correctly. Due to the bug in the sipdb tool, this entry will not be viewable for debugging purposes.
Fix:
The fix corrects the sipdb tool so that entries which do not have a pool name will display correctly.
598498-4 : Cannot remove Self IP when an unrelated static ARP entry exists.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Cannot remove a self-IP when an unrelated static ARP entry exists. The system produces an error similar to the following: err mcpd[6743]: 01071907:3: Cannot delete IP <addr> because it would leave a static neighbor (ARP/NDP) entry unreachable.
Conditions:
Static arp entry exists, and there are no Self IP addresses on the same subnet as the static ARP entry. When in this condition, none of the Self IP addresses can be deleted.
Impact:
Must delete static ARP entries in order to delete Self IP addresses.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
In this release, you can delete Self IP addresses if unrelated static ARP entries exist.
598211-2 : Citrix Android Receiver 3.9 does not work through APM in StoreFront integration mode.
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
During the logon to Citrix StoreFront through an APM virtual server, after the login page, the BIG-IP system sends the client the following error: Error 404 file or directory not found.
Conditions:
This occurs when the following conditions are met:
- Citrix Android receiver 3.9.
- APM is in integration mode with Citrix StoreFront.
- Storefront unified experience mode is enabled.
Impact:
Cannot access Citrix StoreFront unified UI through Android Receiver 3.9.
Workaround:
For StoreFront integration mode, there is an iRule that is created by the iApp that redirects the root page to the store's URI. The workaround is to add an additional redirect for the receiver_uri ending with receiver.html. The iRule below contains this workaround.
It is also recommended to delete and recreate the existing store account.
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [regexp -nocase {/citrix/(.+)/receiver\.html} [HTTP::path] dummy store_name] } {
log -noname accesscontrol.local1.debug "01490000:7: setting http path to /Citrix/$store_name/"
HTTP::path "/Citrix/$store_name/"
}
}
Fix:
Citrix Android Receiver 3.9 now works through APM in StoreFront integration mode.
598039-3 : MCP memory may leak when performing a wildcard query
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
MCP's umem_alloc_80 cache (visible using tmctl -a) increases in size after certain wildcard queries. Accordingly, the MCP process shows increased memory usage.
Conditions:
Folders must be in use, and the user must execute a wildcard query for objects that are in the upper levels of the folder hierarchy (i.e. not at the very bottom of the folder tree).
Impact:
MCP loses available memory with each query. MCP could eventually run out of memory and core, resulting in an outage or failover (depending on whether or not the customer is running in a device cluster).
Workaround:
Do not perform wildcard queries.
Fix:
Stopped MCP leaking when wildcard queries are performed.

597978-4 : GARPs may be transmitted by active going offline
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
GARPs may be transmitted by the active when going offline. As the standby which takes over for the active will also transmit GARPs, it is not expected that this will cause impact.
Conditions:
Multiple traffic-groups configured and active goes offline.
Impact:
It is not expected that this will cause any impact.
Workaround:
Make the unit standby before forcing offline.
597966 : ARP/neighbor cache nexthop object can be freed while still referenced by another structure
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Use after free or double-free of the nexthop object may cause memory corruption or TMM core.
Conditions:
This can happen if the server-side connection establishment takes some time to complete, creating a large enough time window where the nexthop object might be freed.
Impact:
The BIG-IP dataplane might crash. This is a very timing/memory-usage-dependent issue.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Management of nexthop object reference counting is more consistent.
597835-1 : Branch parameter in inserted VIA header not consistent as per spec
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
MRF SIP in LoadBalancing Operation Mode inserts a VIA header to SIP request messages. This VIA header is removed from the returned response message. The VIA header contains encrypted routing information to route the response message. The SIP spec states that all messages in the same transaction should contain the same branch header. The code used to encrypt the branch field returns a different value each time.
Conditions:
Enabling SIP Via header insertion on the BIGIP on SIP MRF profile and need to cancel an INVITE
Impact:
Some servers have code to verify the brach fields in the VIA header do not change within a transaction. These servers complain when they see the fields change.
Fix:
The code has been improved to ensure the branch field in the via header does not change.

Such message may also appear in /var/log/webui.log and /var/log/tomcat/catalina.out.
2. After clicking Refresh, the GUI may not show the correct web page.
Conditions:
It is possible that this error could be encountered when deleting local users (Access Policy :: Local User DB : Manage Users), and may theoretically be encountered in other ways. The issue might require deleting a user and then remaining on the Manage Users page until an internal timeout of approximately 10 minutes passes.
Impact:
Error messages logged.
GUI may not show the correct web page.
Workaround:
Use the CLI (tmsh) to delete local users.

597089-5 : Connections are terminated after 5 seconds when using ePVA full acceleration
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When using a fast L4 profile with ePVA full acceleration configured, the 5-second TCP 3WHS handshake timeout is not being updated to the TCP idle timeout after the handshake is completed. The symptom is an unusually high number of connections getting reset in a short period of time.
Conditions:
It is not known all of the conditions that trigger this, but it is seen when using the fast L4 profile with pva-acceleration set to full.
Impact:
High number of connections get reset, longer than expected idling TCP connections, and potential performance issues.
Workaround:
Disabling the PVA resolves the issue.

596814-3 : HA Failover fails in certain valid AWS configurations
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Some of the floating object's IPs might not be reattached to the instance acting as the new active device.
Conditions:
AWS deployments where there are multiple coincidences for the provided IP address (corresponding to other Amazon VPCs in the same Availability Zone containing unrelated instances but having the same IP address as the BIG-IP's floating IP address.
Impact:
Potential traffic disruption. Some of the floating object's IPs might not be reattached to the instance acting as the new active device.
Workaround:
Do not have AWS deployments with multiple VPCs sharing the same IP address as the BIG-IP's floating IP address.
Fix:
Failover now narrows network description by filtering with VPC id.

Solution Article: K00539510
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Some 10.2.x client SSL configurations fail to upgrade to 11.6.1. The upgrade fails with an error similar to the following:
emerg load_config_files: "/usr/libexec/bigpipe load" - failed. -- BIGpipe parsing error (/config/bigpipe/BIG-IP.conf Line 67): 012e0020:3: The requested item (myclientssl {) is invalid (<profile arg> ` show ` list ` edit ` delete ` stats reset) for 'profile'.
Conditions:
Running 10.2.x with a Client SSL profile that has a custom Certificate and Key, and attempting to upgrade to version 11.6.1 or higher.
Impact:
The system fails to upgrade and presents a bigpipe parsing error.
Workaround:
If you have already upgraded and are encountering this issue, do the following:
1. Make a backup copy of /config/bigpipe/BIG-IP.conf.
2. Edit /config/bigpipe/BIG-IP.conf and remove any reference to inherit-certificatechain in the affected ssl profiles.
3. Run /usr/libexec/bigpipe daol.
4. Run tmsh save sys config.
5. Run tmsh load sys config.
This should install the configuration after upgrade failure.
Fix:
A 10.2.x configuration containing a Client SSL profile with a custom Certificate and Key now successfully upgrades to 11.6.1.
596603-11 : AWS: BIG-IP VE doesn't work with c4.8xlarge instance type.

596116-2 : LDAP Query does not resolve group membership, when required attribute(s) specified
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Corresponding session variable session.ldap.last.memberOf contains only the groups user has explicit membership.
Conditions:
This occurs when the following conditions are met:
-- When APM LDAP Query is configured with option "Fetch groups to which the user or group belong" is set to "All".
-- The Required Attribute includes the "memberOf" LDAP attribute.
Impact:
Only groups the user is a direct member of will be populated to the APM 'session.ldap.last.memberOf' variable.
Workaround:
Add the following attribute to the "Required Attributes" list:
"objectClass"
If APM is communicating via LDAP with Microsoft Active Directory, consider adding this attribute to the list:
"primaryGroupID"
Note: Adding the "primaryGroupID" attribute will cause APM to fetch all groups Microsoft Active Directory, including the primary group.
Fix:
LDAP Query now retrieves groups from the backend server in accordance with option "fetch groups to which the user or group belong". it doesn't matter if any required attribute set or not set.
595874-4 : Upgrading 11.5.x/11.6.x hourly billing instances to 12.1.0 fails due to license SCD.★
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE) instances that use the Amazon Web Services (AWS) hourly billing license model may fail when upgrading to version 12.1.0.
As a result of this issue, you may encounter the following symptom:
After upgrading to version 12.1.0, the BIG-IP VE instance license is invalid.
Conditions:
This issue occurs when all of the following conditions are met:
-- You have BIG-IP VE instances that use the hourly billing licensing model.
-- Your BIG-IP VE instances are running 11.5.x or 11.6.x software versions.
-- Your BIG-IP VE instances are running within the AWS EC2 environment.
-- You upgrade the BIG-IP VE instance using the liveinstall method.
Impact:
BIG-IP VE instance licenses are not valid after upgrading to software version 12.1.0.
Workaround:
To work around this issue, you can use the liveinstall method on the hotfix image directly (instead of installing the base software image and then the hotfix image). To do so, perform the following procedure:
Impact of workaround: Performing the following procedure requires rebooting the system and should be performed only during a maintenance window.
Download the BIGIP-12.1.0.0.0.1434.iso and Hotfix-BIGIP-12.1.0.1.1.1447-HF1-ENG.iso files to your workstation. For more information about downloading software, refer to SOL167: Downloading software and firmware from F5.
Copy the downloaded files from your workstation to the /shared/images directory on the VE instance.
To perform the installation by using the liveinstall method, and reboot the BIG-IP VE instance to the volume running the new software, use the following command syntax:
tmsh install sys software hotfix Hotfix-BIGIP-12.1.0.1.1.1447-HF1-ENG.iso volume <volume-number> reboot
For example, to install the hotfix to volume HD1.3 and reboot to the volume running the newly installed software, type the following command:
tmsh install sys software hotfix Hotfix-BIGIP-12.1.0.1.1.1447-HF1-ENG.iso volume HD1.3 reboot
Verify the installation progress by typing the following command:
tmsh show sys software

595773-3 : Cancellation requests for chunked stats queries do not propagate to secondary blades
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Canceling a request for a chunked stats query (e.g. hitting ctrl-c during "tmsh show sys connection") does not stop data flowing from secondary blades.
Conditions:
A chassis-based system with multiple blades. Users must execute a chunked stats query (e.g. "tmsh show sys connection") and then cancel it before it finishes (e.g. with ctrl-c in tmsh).
Impact:
Unnecessary data will be sent from TMM to secondary mcpd instances, as well as from secondary mcpd instances to the primary mcpd instance. This could cause mcpd to restart unexpectedly.
Fix:
Cancellations for chunked stats queries are now propagated to secondary blades.

592854-4 : Protocol version set incorrectly on serverssl renegotiation
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
If the BIG-IP serverssl profile sends a new ClientHello request to renegotiate SSL, the protocol version will be set to 0. This will cause renegotiation to fail.
Conditions:
ServerSSL profile configured on a virtual server, and BIG-IP initiates a renegotiation.
Impact:
Protocol field is invalid (0), and the server will reset the connection.
Fix:
Fixed a reset issue with SSL renegotiation in the serverssl profile.
592784-4 : Compression stalls, does not recover, and compression facilities cease.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Compression stalls, does not recover, and compression facilities may cease.
Conditions:
A device error of any kind, or requests that result in the device reporting an error (for example, attempting to decompress an invalid compression stream).
Impact:
In general, compression stops altogether. Under some circumstances, compression requests may end up routed to zlib (software compression), but generally the SSL hardware accelerator card does not correctly report that it is unavailable when it stalls.
Workaround:
Select the softwareonly compression provider by running the following tmsh command: tmsh modify sys db compression.strategy value softwareonly.
Fix:
The compression device driver now attempts to recover after a failure. If it still cannot recover, new compression requests will be assigned to zlib (software) for compression.

591857 : 10-core vCMP guest with ASM may not pass traffic
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
The TMM plugin manager does not expect/support an ASM guest configuration of 10 cores, thus its calculations as to the number of devices required and numbering does not match the existing number of threads/devices.
Conditions:
11.6.0 HF6

591733-2 : Save on Auto-Sync is missing from the configuration utility.
Solution Article: K83175883
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
The option to configure save-on-auto-sync is missing in the Device Management GUI.
Conditions:
Devices configured in a DSC configuration.
Automatic with Full or Incremental Sync is enabled.
You attempt to configure the save-on-auto-sync option from the GUI.
Impact:
You will need to have TMSH access to the BIG-IP system to perform this task.
Workaround:
You will need to have TMSH access to the BIG-IP system to perform this task.
Fix:
This release adds per-device-group save_on_auto_sync flag to GUI: flag now shows in GUI and correctly saves.
GUI: The "Sync Type" option in the GUI must be set to "Automatic with Full/Incremental Sync" in order for "Save on Auto-Sync" option to show.
Behavior Change:
Beginning in version 11.5.0, the /cm trust-domain 'save-on-auto-sync' attribute is no longer configured as part of the trust-domain, but is part of the configuration of a device group. With this change, the option to set that attribute becomes available in the GUI on the condition that the "Sync Type" option is set to "Automatic with Full/Incremental Sync".
591659-3 : Server shutdown is propagated to client after X-Cnection: close transformation.
Solution Article: K47203554
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Server shutdown is propagated to client after X-Cnection: close transformation.
Conditions:
In OneConnect configurations, when a server's maximum number of keep-alives is exceeded, the server closes the connection between itself and the BIG-IP system. This Connection: Close is transformed to an X-Cnection: close and sent to the Client along with a TCP FIN.
Impact:
Client side connections are closed by the BIG-IP system too early, causing subsequent requests to be dropped.
Workaround:
Set the OneConnect profile "Maximum Reuse" value to 2 below the value of the pool members max keep-alive setting. This forces OneConnect to close the connection before the pool member.
Fix:
Server shutdown is no longer propagated to client after X-Cnection: close transformation, so client side connections are now kept open by the BIG-IP system as expected, and subsequent requests are no longer dropped.
591476-8 : Stuck crypto queue can erroneously be reported
Solution Article: K53220379
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
In some cases, a stuck crypto queue can be erroneously detected on Nitrox-based systems (Nitrox PX and Nitrox 3). When the tmm/crypto stats are examined, they show no queued requests. The following message appears in the ltm log: Device error: crypto codec cn-crypto-0 queue is stuck.
Conditions:
-- Running on one of the following platforms:
+ BIG-IP 800, 1600, 3600, 3900, 6900, 89xx, 5xxx, 7xxx, 10xxx, 11xxx, and 12xxx
+ VIPRION B41xx-B43xx, B21xx, and B22xx blades.
-- Performing SSL.
-- Under heavy load.
Impact:
Device errors reported in logs and crypto HA action is taken, possibly resulting in failing over.
Workaround:
Modify the crypto queue timeout value to 0 to prevent timeouts using the following command:
tmsh modify sys db crypto.queue.timeout value 0
Fix:
The crypto driver now only examines requests in the hardware DMA ring to detect a stuck queue.

591343-2 : SSL::sessionid output is not consistent with the sessionid field of ServerHello message.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
SSL::sessionid output is not consistent with the sessionid field of ServerHello message. This is mostly cosmetic, but if an iRule depends upon the outcome, the result can be unexpected.
Conditions:
This occurs when using an iRule to inspect the session ID on server-side SSL.
Impact:
The values do not match. SSL::sessionid outputs the wrong sessionid.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
The returned session ID in both the SERVERSSL_SERVERHELLO and SERVERSSL_HANDSHAKE events is the one presented by the SSL server.

589794 : APD might crash if LDAP Query agent failed to retrieve primary group for a user
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
APD will crash and generate a core file.
Conditions:
The problem can happen only when the following is true:
1. LDAP Query is used with AD backend
2. "Fetch groups to which the user or group belong" is defined other value than None (direct/all)
3. There were logins to bigip before, so group cache is built and valid
4. New group created in the domain and assigned as a primary group for the user trying to authenticate
Impact:
Authentication service will be interrupted.
Workaround:
Administrator should reset group cache using either GUI (AAA LDAP Server configuration page) or tmsh (apm aaa ldap object). After cache is reset, it will be built from scratch on next request and the new group will be added to the cache.
589256-3 : DNSSEC NSEC3 records with different type bitmap for same name.
Component: Global Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
For a delegation from a secure zone to an insecure zone, BIG-IP returns different type bitmaps in the NSEC3 record depending on the query type. This causes BIND9's validator to reject the secure delegation to the insecure zone.
Conditions:
For insecure delegations, our DNSSEC implementation does not support the DS record. Those queries are forwarded to the backend, BIND if selected as fallback. Without ZSK/KSK for an insecure child zone, BIND responds SOA which we dynamically sign.
Impact:
DNS lookups may fail if BIND9's validator rejects the delegation.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
If response is a NODATA from either the proxy or a transparent cache, and the query is a DS, set the types bitmap to NS.

588888-2 : Empty URI rewriting is not done as required by browser.
Solution Article: K80124134
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Empty URI must be rewritten at server side and client side rewriter in the same way: as empty URI (all browsers treat this type of URI in a specific way).
Conditions:
A tag with an empty 'src' or 'href' attribute.
Impact:
Web application malfunction, such as incorrect or unexpected behavior or error messages.
Workaround:
Use an application-specific iRule that modifies the empty URI.
-- For example, for JavaScript methods such as setAttribute(), an iRule should change this:
'F5_Invoke_setAttribute(o, "src", uri)'
to this:
'(uri=="")?o.setAttribute("src", uri):F5_Invoke_setAttribute(o, "src", uri)'.
-- As another example, for JavaScript methods such as write(str), writeln(str), innerHTML=str, outerHTML=str, and similar methods, if str contains <img src="" ... >, the iRule must remove the src attribute.
Fix:
This release fixes the issue of rewriting the empty URI the same way at the server side and client side: as empty URI (all browsers treat this type of URI in a specific way).

586878-2 : During upgrade, configuration fails to load due to clientssl profile with empty cert/key configuration.★
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
During upgrade, configuration fails to load due to invalid clientssl profile cert/key configuration. The validation to verify whether at least one valid key/cert pair exists in clientssl profiles was enforced in software versions through 11.5.0. This validation was not in effect in versions 11.5.1, 11.5.2, and 11.5.3.
The lack of validation resulted in invalid clientssl profiles (those containing empty key/certs or a cert/key of 'default'). When you upgrade such a configuration to 11.5.4 or later, you will receive a validation error, and the configuration will fail to load after upgrade.
Conditions:
The issue occurs when all the below conditions are met.
1. You have a clientssl profile in a configuration from a version without validation (that is, 11.5.1, 11.5.2, or 11.5.3).
2. The clientssl profile in the configuration has an empty cert/key, or a cert/key of 'default'.
3. You upgrade to a version that has the cert/key validation (specifically, 11.5.4, 11.6.0, 11.6.1, and versions 12.1.0 and later).
Impact:
Configuration fails to load. The system posts an error message that might appear similar to one of the following:
-- 01070315:3: profile /Common/my_client_ssl requires a key Unexpected Error: Loading configuration process failed.
-- 01071ac9:3: Unable to load the certificate file () - error:2006D080:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:no such file.
Unexpected Error: Loading configuration process failed.
Workaround:
To workaround this situation, modify the configuration file before upgrading:
1. Check the config file /config/bigip.conf.
2. Identify the clientssl profile without a cert/key.
For example, it might look similar to the following:
ltm profile client-ssl /Common/cssl_no-cert-key2 {
app-service none
cert none
cert-key-chain {
"" { }
}
chain none
defaults-from /Common/clientssl
inherit-certkeychain false
key none
passphrase none
}
Note: The profile might have cert-key-chain name but not the cert/key. In other words, it could also appear similar to the following example:
ltm profile client-ssl /Common/cssl_no-cert-key2 {
app-service none
cert none
cert-key-chain {
default { }
}
chain none
defaults-from /Common/clientssl
inherit-certkeychain false
key none
passphrase none
}
3. Remove the clientssl profile from /config/bigip.conf.
4. Run the command: tmsh load sys conf.
5. Re-create the clientssl profiles you need.
586738-2 : The tmm might crash with a segfault.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
The tmm might crash with a segfault.
Conditions:

Workaround:
None.
Fix:
IPsec is configured with hardware encryption error now returns an error code when appropriate, and manages the error as expected, so tmm no longer crashes with a segfault.
586718-3 : Session variable substitutions are logged
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
With the log level set to debug, session variable substitutions are logged, including the encrypted password if you are substituting the password variable. You may see the following logs: debug apmd[3531]: 01490000:7: Util.cpp func: "ScanReplaceSessionVar()" line: 608 Msg: data: '%{session.logon.last.password}' start_pos: 0, count: 30 on 'session.logon.last.password' with the encrypted password logged
Conditions:
APM Access Policy log level set to debug, and session variable substitution is performed.
Impact:
Session variable substitution should not be logged, even if it is secure.
Workaround:
Set log level to informational or notice for normal operations. Logging at debug level is not recommended unless absolutely needed for specific troubleshooting as it adversely affects system performance.
Fix:
Session variable substitutions are no longer logged.
586131-3 : SSLv3 vulnerability CVE-2014-3566
Solution Article: K15702
586006-3 : Failed to retrieve CRLDP list from client certificate if DirName type is present
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Client certification revocation check will fail.
Conditions:
Two conditions will trigger this problem:
1. A CRLDP agent is configured in the access policy without server hostname and port, which is needed for DirName type processing. AND
2. At least one DirName type CRLDP is present in the client certification and it is the first in the list.
Impact:
Users may fail access policy evaluation when client certification is used.
Workaround:
Configure an LDAP server for the CRLDP object. It need not return a valid CRL.
585562-1 : VMware View HTML5 client shipped with Horizon 7 does not work through BIG-IP APM in Chrome/Safari
Component: Access Policy Manager

585485-4 : inter-ability with "delete IPSEC-SA" between AZURE, ASA, and the BIG-IP system
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Some IKEv1 IPsec vendor implementations (for example Cisco ASA) send a delete SPI message for an IPsec-SA and expect that the sibling IPsec-SA (the SPI in the other direction) will also be deleted by the peer.
The BIG-IP system sends and expect messages with two SPI's inside.
Conditions:
An IPsec tunnel between a BIG-IP system and some other vendor may experience this. Azure and Cisco ASA are two such vendors.
Impact:
An IPsec tunnel goes down and in some situations may not renegotiate while the BIG-IP believes that the outgoing SPI is still active. The tunnel will stay down until the lifetime of the outbound SA expires.
Workaround:
Delete the outbound SA from the BIG-IP using the tmsh command by specifying the related SA:
(tmos)# delete net ipsec ipsec-sa ?
Properties:
"{" Optional delimiter
dst-addr Specifies the destination address of the security associations
spi Specifies the SPI of the security associations
src-addr Specifies the source address of the security associations
traffic-selector Specifies the name of the traffic selector
Fix:
The BIG-IP system will remove both SAs associated with one traffic-selector (tunnel) when the peer sends a delete SPI message.

Solution Article: K20145801
585412-2 : SMTPS virtual server with activation-mode allow will RST non-TLS connections with Email bodies with very long lines
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Connections to a virtual server that uses an SMTPS profile may be reset with a reset cause of 'Out of memory.'
Conditions:
This might occur under the following conditions:
-- A virtual server that uses an SMTPS profile with activation-mode set to allow.
-- A client connection which does not use TLS that sends a DATA section with a text line that is longer than approximately 8192 characters.
8192 characters is an approximation for the maximum line length. The actual problem length can be affected by the MSS value and the particular way that the TCP traffic is segmented.
Impact:
The TCP connection is reset with a reset-cause of Out of memory' and the email will not be delivered.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
A virtual server that uses an SMTPS profile with activation-mode set to allow no longer resets connections when the client does not use STARTTLS and the email body contains very long lines.
585097-3 : Traffic Group score formula does not result in unique values.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
In certain configurations, the Traffic Group score for a particular Traffic Group can be identical across devices in a device service cluster, resulting in the Traffic Group becoming Active on more than one device simultaneously.
Conditions:
The score is derived from the management-ip and other factors. If the device management-ips are not on the same /24 subnet, the score is not guaranteed to be unique.
The score can be observed with the tmsh "run cm watch_trafficgroup_device" command, and in some versions of BIG-IP, the "show cm traffic-group" command.
Impact:
When the problem occurs, Traffic Groups will be Active on multiple devices simultaneously. The problem can affect all Traffic Groups.
Workaround:
The only solution is to change the management-ip on one of the colliding devices. The workaround is not practical with DHCP, and in many other situations.
Fix:
The Active device selection logic has been changed to deterministically choose the Active device location, even in cases with identical static scores.
584373-3 : AD/LDAP resource group mapping table controls are not accessible sometimes

Workaround:
Spread one assign thru multiple rows
Fix:
Scroll bar is appearing when needed
584029-2 : Fragmented packets may cause tmm to core under heavy load
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
In rare circumstances, the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) process may produce a core file while processing fragmented packets.
As a result of this issue, you may encounter one or more of the following symptoms:
-- TMM generates a core file in the /shared/core directory.
-- In one of the /var/log/tmm log files, you observe an error message similar to the following example:
notice panic: ../base/flow_fwd.c:255: Assertion "ffwd flag set" failed.
panic: ../net/packet.c:168: Assertion "packet is locked by a driver" failed.
notice ** SIGFPE **
Conditions:
This issue occurs when all of the following conditions are met:
-- The TMM process offloads a fragmented packet by way of an ffwd operation.
-- Your BIG-IP system is under heavy load.
Impact:
The BIG-IP system temporarily fails to process traffic while the TMM process restarts. If the BIG-IP system is configured for high availability (HA), the system fails over to a peer system.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Fragmented packets no longer cause tmm to core under heavy load.
583957-4 : The TMM may hang handling pipelined HTTP requests with certain iRule commands.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Rarely, the TMM may hang during a HTTP::respond or HTTP::redirect iRule command if it is part of a pipelined HTTP request.
Conditions:
A HTTP::respond or HTTP::redirect iRule is used.
The iRule command is in an event triggered on the client-side.
A pipelined HTTP request is being handled.
Impact:
The TMM will be restarted by SOD.
Fix:
The TMM no longer hangs in rare situations when processing a pipelined HTTP request and invoking a HTTP::respond or HTTP::redirect iRule command.
583936-3 : Removing ECMP route from BGP does not clear route from NSM

583285-7 : BIG-IP logs INVALID-SPI messages but does not remove the associated SAs.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
The BIG-IP system logs INVALID-SPI messages but does not remove the associated Security Associations (SAs) corresponding to the message. This is the second part of a fix provided for this issue. See fixes for bug 569236 for the first part.
Conditions:
This can occur if an IPsec peer deletes a phase2 (IPsec) SA and does not send a 'notify delete' message to the other peer. The INVALID-SPI message is most likely to be seen when the peer deletes an SA before the SA's agreed lifetime.
Impact:
If the BIG-IP is always the Initiator, the Responder will not initiate a new tunnel if the Responder only handles responses to the BIG-IP clients' traffic. The BIG-IP system continues to use the IPsec SA it believes to be still up. When an SA expires prematurely, some IPsec peers will reject an inbound SPI packet with an ISAKMP INVALID-SPI notify message. If the INVALID-SPI message does not cause new SAs to be created, there will be a tunnel outage until the SA lifetime expires on the defunct SA held on the BIG-IP system.
Workaround:
Manually remove the invalid SA on the BIG-IP system.
Fix:
Now, when the BIG-IP system receives INVALID-SPI messages, it deletes the invalid Security Association as well as logging the INVALID-SPI message, so the tunnel can initiate again. This is part two of a two-part fix. Fixes for bug 569236 provide part one of the fix.
583272-1 : "Corrupted Connect Error" when using IPv6 and On-Demand Cert Auth
Solution Article: K11736022
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Browser shows a "corrupted connect error" when access policy runs On-Demand Cert Auth on an IPv6 virtual server.
The root cause is that in packet capture, the APM sends an HTTP 302 with invalid brackets around the hostname, like this:
Location: https://[login.example.com]/my.policy
Brackets around IPv6 addresses are for raw IPv6 addresses. They are illegal for DNS names that represent an IPv6 address.
Conditions:
IPv6 virtual server, and On-Demand Cert Auth in the access policy. Only applies if a DNS hostname is used. Raw IPv6 addresses are not affected.
Impact:
Client is unable to authenticate.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
The brackets in the Location header were inserted if the connection was IPv6, which included both raw IPv6 addresses and DNS names representing IPv6 addresses. The logic has been changed to only insert if the connection is to a raw IPv6 address.
583113-3 : NTLM Auth cannot be disabled in HTTP_PROXY_REQUEST event
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
The following iRule did not work as expected when the access profile had an NTLM auth. The client still received a 407 prompt to enter NTLM credentials.
when HTTP_PROXY_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::uri] contains "disable" } {
ACCESS::disable
}
}
Conditions:
Access profile of an SWG type, with an NTLM auth profile attached.
Impact:
It was impossible to disable NTLM auth from the HTTP_PROXY_REQUEST event.
Workaround:
The following iRule works from HTTP_REQUEST
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::uri] contains "disable" } {
ACCESS::disable
ECA::disable
}
}
Fix:
When ACCESS filter is disabled, it still processes certain messages. The logic in one of those message handlers was "if NTLM configured, then wake up the ECA plugin"
Fix changed the logic to "if NTLM configured and ACCESS filter is not disabled, then wake up the ECA plugin."
583010-9 : Sending a SIP invite with "tel" URI fails with a reset

Impact:
"INVITE tel:" messages are not accepted by BIG-IP.
Workaround:
None
Fix:
An EHF will be released to address this issue. It will also be addressed in a future release.

3. Have no incoming rules (i.e., no items pointing at it).
Conditions:
1. Create access policy with macrocall item in one of the branches.
2. Remove the item which refers to this macrocall item from AP
As a result, macrocall item remains.
Impact:
VPE fails to render this access policy.
Workaround:
Delete macrocall access policy item manually using tmsh commands.
Fix:
Any modification of access policy is not allowed if it makes any access policy item non-referenced.
At upgrade time, non-referenced access policy items are deleted. All subsequent access policy items are deleted as well. Resulting access policies can be rendered correctly by VPE. Note that only active configuration is corrected, saved configuration file (/config/bigip.conf) contains uncorrected version until any new configuration changes are done. Active configuration can be saved by explicit tmsh command ('tmsh save sys config partitions all").

580313-3 : OpenSSL vulnerability CVE-2016-0799
Solution Article: K22334603
580303-3 : When going from active to offline, tmm might send a GARP for a floating address.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When moving from active to offline, tmm might send one final GARP for a floating address from the device that is moving offline.
Conditions:
Using high availability, and switching a device from active to offline.
Impact:
The GARP from the offline device can arrive on upstream devices after the GARP from the newly active device, which might poison the address cache of the upstream device. The result is that failover takes longer, since the upstream devices must rediscover the active device.
Workaround:
Use MAC masquerading along with the floating address; the system sends a GARP for the MAC masqueraded address, which prevents the issue.
Fix:
tmm no longer sends a final GARP for a floating address immediately before going offline.

579909-2 : Secondary MCPD exits for APM Sandbox warning improperly treated as configuration error
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Secondary blade MCPD exits if APM Sandbox intends to log a warning message when it fails to remove the corresponding sandbox directory /var/sam/www/webtop/sandbox/files_d/<partition_name>_d while the user is removing the partition.
There are multiple cases that can potentially log such kind of Sandbox warning message and cause an mcpd crash and/or tmm crash. APM can log the warning if it encounters a directory which is not empty, or if the directory does not exist. You will see this error signature in /var/log/ltm:
Mar 11 11:36:49 slot2/viprion-3 warning mcpd[6022]: 010717ac:4: Configuration Warning: Cannot remove directory with symlink to sandbox for partition (p1). Error: Directory not empty. If you have access to bash shell, try to run command: rmdir /var/sam/www/webtop/sandbox/files_d/p1_d/
Conditions:
The sandbox directory corresponding to the partition that you are deleting cannot be removed due to any reason such as Not Existing, Not Empty, etc. on the secondary blade. This can occur on the secondary blades if you create a partition before provisioning APM, then delete the partition on the primary blade, and auto-sync is enabled in the device group.
Impact:
Secondary MCPD exits and blade restarts. Tmm can core. Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Workaround:
N/A
Fix:
Fixed such that Secondary MCP will not exit but only log the warning message as the partition is successfully deleted.

578971-1 : When mcpd is restarted on a blade, cluster members may be temporarily marked as failed
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When mcpd is restarted on a blade, the clusterd process on that blade may become blocked for some time. This may result in cluster member heartbeat timeouts, which are seen in the /var/log/ltm log file with messages that include:
"Slot 1 suffered heartbeat timeout ..."
This causes cluster members to be marked failed. The condition resolves itself within one minute, and the cluster fully recovers on its own.
Conditions:
Mcpd is restarted on a blade.
Impact:
Though all blades recover on their own, the cluster members being marked fail may result in a failover.
Workaround:
There is no workaround for this issue. It is recommended to avoid restarting mcpd on any blade belonging to the active unit of an HA group. The issue resolves itself within about a minute, and all cluster members will be marked as up again.
Fix:
The clusterd daemon has been fixed to no longer become blocked when mcpd is restarted. This prevents the cluster member heartbeat timeouts from occurring, and thus no cluster members will be marked failed.

578353 : Statistics data aggregation process is not optimized
Component: Application Visibility and Reporting
Symptoms:
CPU spikes may occur every 5 minutes
Conditions:
Occurs all the time
Impact:
High CPU usage may be observed every 5 minutes
Workaround:
For versions based on 11.5.4 and 11.6.0 take the following steps:
1. Edit the entry 'AggregationMode' under the /etc/avr/monpd/monpd.cfg file and set it to be 'low' instead of 'medium' or 'high'.
2.Restart Monpd afterwards.
For 12.0.0 and on:

575170-3 : Analytics reports may not identify virtual servers correctly
Component: Application Visibility and Reporting
Symptoms:
In certain configurations, Analytics statistics on virtual server activity may not be reported correctly.
Conditions:
This occurs for virtual servers that are configured in one of these ways:
1. Two virtual servers have the same IP-Port-RouteDomain setting, but they use different protocols (such as TCP for one and UDP for the other) or different sources.
2. A virtual server is defined with a masked IP address rather than an explicit address (for example, 10.10.10.0/24).
Impact:
As a result, Analytics reports show an Aggregated Virtual Server or an incorrect one instead of displaying the correct virtual servers.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Correct identification of the virtual server and the activity reported in the charts is displaying to the right virtual server.
575027-2 : Tagged VLAN configurations with a cmp-hash setting for the VLAN, might result in performance issues.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Tagged VLAN configurations with a cmp-hash setting for the VLAN, might result in performance issues.
Conditions:
This occurs when the following conditions are met:
1. Use of tagged VLANs in the configuration.
2. Change cmp-hash of the tagged VLAN.
Impact:
Throughput is lower than expected. Packets are not being hashed using the hash set in config. (This can be verified by looking at 'tmm/flow_redir_stat'.)
Workaround:
Use untagged VLANs and hypervisor side tagging.
Fix:
You can now use tagged VLAN configurations along with a cmp-hash setting for the VLAN, without compromising performance.

Fix:
ASM chassis blades are now synchronized correctly after every policy creation.
574153-2 : If an SSL client disconnects while data is being sent to SSL client, the connection may stall until TCP timeout.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
If an SSL connection gracefully begins to disconnect at the same time as data is being encrypted by SSL acceleration hardware, the connection will remain open until the TCP profile timeout occurs instead of being closed immediately. This can cause unwanted higher memory usage, possibly causing crashes elsewhere.
Conditions:
* A virtual server with ClientSSL or ServerSSL profile.
* BIG-IP SSL acceleration hardware.
* While an SSL record is being encrypted by SSL accelerator hardware, the SSL connection begins to close by client TCP FIN or by any iRule command that closes the connection.
Impact:
There is a potential for higher memory usage, which in turn may cause TMM crash due to memory exhaustion resulting in service disruption.
Workaround:
If the affected SSL traffic does not include any long idle periods, memory consumption can be mitigated by reducing the idle timeout of the TCP or SCTP profile.
Fix:
SSL connections now disconnect normally if a disconnect attempt occurs while data is being encrypted by SSL acceleration hardware.
574116-2 : MCP may crash when syncing configuration between device groups
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
mcpd on the sync target crashes when syncing configuration.
Conditions:
This can occur when a local non-synced object references an object that is synced (such as a local-only virtual server referencing a synced iRule), and a non-synced object on the target machine happens to be referencing the same synced object. In this condition, mcpd could crash if objects in a sync group are deleted and synced.
Impact:
Outage due to mcp crash which causes tmm to restart.
Workaround:
When you have devices with local-only resources that are referencing objects contained in a sync/failover group, avoid deleting any objects (such as iRules) that might be referenced by other local-only resources on other devices. Instead of a "this object is in use error", mcpd on the target machine will crash.
Fix:
Verify existence of rule objects when validating configuration.
574055-3 : TMM crash after changing raccoon log level
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
TMM crashes after changing the raccoon log level to debug2
Conditions:

Impact:
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Workaround:
set debug level to INFO
Fix:
A tmm crash related to changing the debug level while passing traffic has been fixed.
574052-2 : GTM autoconf can cause high CPU usage for gtmd
Component: Global Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
The autoconf feature of GTM can cause high CPU utilization (~90%) under certain situations.
In large configurations of LTM vses that contain "." (dot) in the name.
Conditions:
Large configuration of LTM VS that contain "." in the name have the name converted ("." is replaced by "_") and the LTM VS name is saved to the config.
This causes the matching algorithm in autoconf to spend many CPU cycles walking the list of VS to find a match.
This problem is caused by large numbers of VSes on a GTM Server. (10k VSes on 10k Server is less of an issue
than 10k VSes on 1 GTM Server)
Impact:
CPU usage is high, which may impact monitoring and LB decisions.
Workaround:
There are some mitigations. The preferable (for performance
and stability) are listed first.
1. Rename the virtual servers on the LTM to remove the "."
This would require deleting the GTM configuration and
rediscovering it and recreating pools.
2. Turn off autoconf.
Run autoconf once to populate the config, then turn it
off.
3. Reduce the frequency of autoconf. It will still cause
a high CPU usage scenario, but it will be less frequent.
Versions 12.0.0 and higher do not convert the "." to "_". So that problem is eliminated for new configurations.
If a customer upgrades to 12.0.0 and the config still contains VS names that were previously converted, they still may run into high CPU usage.
Upgrading to 12.0.0 alone does not fix this issue, a reconfig would be necessary.
Fix:
Change algorithm used to match LTM VS names to GTM VS to reduce linear walk of all VSes on a server.
574045-2 : BGP may not accept attributes using extended length
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:

Conditions:
Neighbor sends path attributes using extended length.
Impact:
The BGP adacency will repeatedly bounce and the RIB will never converge.
Fix:
Received BGP attributes using extended length are no longer rejected.
574020-4 : Safenet HSM installation script fails to install successfully if partition password contains special metacharacters (!#{}')
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Safenet HSM installation script fails to install successfully if partition password contains special metacharacters (!#{}').
Conditions:
This issue occurs when the following conditions are met:
-- Safenet HSM installation.
-- Password contains special metacharacters (!#{}').
Impact:
Script fails to work properly, and fails to properly install/configure the HSMs, requiring manual intervention. Performing the operation manually is very complex, because the user must account for both tmsh and shell quoting, which the some user environments might not have.
Workaround:
Change password, or manually run tmsh command to define the /sys crypto fips external-hsm object (using proper shell quoting).
Fix:
Safenet HSM installation script install now completes successfully if partition password contains special metacharacters (!#{}').
Note: When using passwords with non-alphanumeric characters, make sure that they are escaped correctly, so that bash does not attempt to reinterpret or expand the password.

573075-2 : ADAPT recursive loop when handling successive iRule events
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
After the first iRule resumes from being parked, ADAPT attempts to process the second iRule event repeatedly.
The connection is aborted with RST cause "ADAPT unexpected state transition".
The adapt profile statistic "records adapted" reaches a very high number as it counts every attempt.
Conditions:
A requestadapt or responseadapt profile is configured.
An iRule is triggered on the ADAPT_REQUEST_RESULT or ADAPT_RESPONSE_RESULT event, that parks.
The modified headers (from an ICAP server) arrive at the ADAPT filter while the first event is parked.
Any iRule on the ADAPT_REQUEST_HEADERS or ADAPT_RESPONSE_HEADERS event does not park.
Impact:
The connection is aborted with RST cause "ADAPT unexpected state transition".
The statistic "records adapted" reaches a very high number.
Eventually the TMM crashes and the Big-IP fails over.
Workaround:
If possible, arrange the iRules to avoid the conditions above.
In particular, if there is no better way, it is possible to avoid this if there is an iRule on the ADAPT_REQUEST_HEADERS or ADAPT_RESPONSE_HEADERS event that parks.
Fix:
ADAPT correctly processes successive iRule events exactly once for each adaptation, and the "records adapted" statistic reports the correct number.

572563-3 : PWS session does not launch on Internet Explorer
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Internet Explorer (IE) gets stuck entering Protected Work Space (PWS).
Conditions:
One of the DLLs provided by APM, vdeskctrl.dll, provides COM services. Internet Explorer (IE), consumes the COM services. The DLL is loaded by IE during upgrade of PWS components. For some reason (especially on slow systems), IE does not unload the the old DLL promptly after upgrading PWS. When COM services are invoked to initialize PWS after upgrade, old DLL provides the service. Due to the recent renewal of our signing certificate, old DLL can't certify the integrity of the new PWS components. We have researched the issue, but we have not found a way to instruct IE to unload the old DLL after upgrade.
Impact:
PWS session does not launch.
Workaround:
After upgrade, if Internet Explorer(IE) does not enter into PWS within 60 seconds, close IE and start a new session. This is an one time event.
Fix:
Internet Explorer can now launch a Protected Workspace session.

Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
Attempting to load a large config with large objects may result in the following error message:
err mcpd[7366]: 01070710:3: Database error (52), Can't write blob data, attribute:implementation status:52 - EdbBlobData.cpp, line 57
Attempting to synchronize a large change may result in the following error messages and a crash of the MCPD process:
err mcpd[8210]: 01071693:3: Incremental sync: Caught an exception while adding a transaction to the incremental config sync cache: unexpected exception.
err mcpd[8210]: 01070734:3: Configuration error: MCPProcessor::processRequestNow: Can't write blob data, attribute:msgs status:52
err mcpd[8210]: 01070596:3: An unexpected failure has occurred, request_group destroyed while processing, exiting...
Conditions:
The config must be approximately 19.75 MB (slightly less) prior to processing a large object in the config that exceeds 256 KB.
Or, once config exceeds 19.75 MB and 2 MB of additional memory has been allocated, processing config objects that exceed 256 KB (the larger, the more likely to occur) lead to the error.
Impact:
Upgrade, load config, or sync might fail, and a system crash and restart might occur.
Workaround:
Stagger the load, or reduce the size of particularly large objects within a config.
Fix:
Memory handling is improved so that large configs with large objects now successfully complete upon upgrade, load config, or sync.

Fix:
The memory leak issue has been fixed.
570640-2 : APM Cannot create symbolic link to sandbox. Error: No such file or directory
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
The user may encounter the following configuration error when adding a new APM sandbox-contained object in a non-default partition (other than /Common) if the user has ever attempted (but failed) to delete this partition (for example, couldn't delete it because it was not empty).
01070734:3: Configuration error: Cannot create symbolic link to sandbox. Error: No such file or directory. If you have access to bash shell, try to run command: ln -s /config/filestore/files_d/p1_d/sandbox_file_d /var/sam/www/webtop/sandbox/files_d/p1_d/sandbox_file_d. Then try to upload file again.

After creating the directors sync to active unit.
570617-4 : HTTP parses fragmented response versions incorrectly
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When a fragmented response is parsed by HTTP, the version field may be incorrectly bounded. HTTP correctly determines the version of the response. However, other filters that re-scan the version field might see a truncated value. The filters then miss-parse the HTTP version.
Conditions:
A fragmented response where the HTTP version field appears in multiple packets. Another filter, for example VDI, re-scans the HTTP version field.
Impact:
The detected version of HTTP may be incorrect. Typically, the response is detected as a HTTP/0.9 response rather than the 1.0 or 1.1 response it actually uses.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
HTTP correctly bounds the response version for other filters to parse.
570563-2 : CRL is not being imported/exported properly
Solution Article: K35470551
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
CRL assigned as part of Machine Cert Auth is not being imported/exported properly.
Conditions:
This occurs when importing SSL Certificates and Keys using the CRL type. Or when adding the Machine Cert Check agent to import an Access Profile in when creating a New Certificate Authority Profile.
Impact:
Prevents CRL from being exported. Might also impact the import/export of Certificate Authority Profiles.
Workaround:
1. Copy and install the CRL to the other BIG-IP system separately.
2. Modify the exported configuration to use CRL from step 1
Fix:
Import and export of CRL is fully supported.

570419-2 : Use of session DB on multi-process appliances and blades may core.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
On selected devices and blades, tmm runs multiple processes. When running multiple processes, the session DB may occasionally attempt an operation that will cause a tmm segfault.
Conditions:
In order to experience this failure, tmm must be running in multiple processes on the appliance or on the blade, and session DB usage is required with mirroring.
Impact:
Outage and restart of tmm. This applies when bringing up blades as well as bringing peers online.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Use of session DB on multi-process appliances and blades no longer cores when bringing up blades as well as bringing peers online.
570363-2 : Potential segfault when MRF messages cross from one TMM to another.
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
Potential segfault when Message Routing Framework (MRF) messages cross from one TMM to another.
Conditions:
This issue occurs when MRF messages travel from one TMM to another, and an asynchronous operation also occurs (like persistence).
Impact:
It is possible for the message object to be removed before the asynchronous operation completes. If this occurs, a segfault may occur and the system might restart.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
This release corrects the issue of potential segfault occurring when MRF messages cross from one TMM to another.
570064-3 : IE gives a security warning asking: "Do you want to run ... InstallerControll.cab"
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
When logging into a VPN connection using Internet Explorer, Internet Explorer may prompt "Do you want to run ... InstallerControll.cab"
Conditions:
BIG-IP APM configured and is accessed by Internet Explorer. This can happen after an upgrade of BIG-IP.
Impact:
The prompt should not occur.
Fix:
Internet Explorer will no longer prompt to run InstallerControll.cab
570057-3 : Can't install more than 16 SafeNet HSMs in its HA group
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
With installation script on the BIG-IP, you can't install more than 16 SafeNet HSMs in its high availability group with versions 5.2 and 5.4.
Conditions:
Attempt to install more than 16 SafeNet HSMs.
Impact:
Installer script failure.
Workaround:
The limit is set by SafeNet. Currently, with F5-supported 5.2 and 5.4 client software, SafeNet doesn't allow more than 16 HSMs in one high availability configuration.
Fix:
Updated SafeNet installation scripts by replacing "vtl" to "lunacm" for high availability group creation and member adding operations for version 6.2.
570053-2 : HA peer's certkeychain of clientssl profile is unexpectedly either removed or re-named after config sync.
Solution Article: K78448635
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
HA peer's certkeychain of clientssl profile is unexpectedly either removed or re-named after config sync.
Conditions:
The issue is seen when all the below conditions are met.
1. When more than one certkeychains are configured in the clientSSL profile.
2. When the content of a certkeychain of the clientSSL profile is modified. For example, "modify ltm profile client-ssl a4 cert-key-chain modify { default { cert rsa.crt key rsa.key } }".
3. Performs config sync in HA setup.
Impact:
Missing certkeychain of a clientSSL profile can result in its inability to handle some kind of SSL traffic. For example, if the clientSSL originally has EC key/cert but loses it, then it is no longer able to handle SSL connection using EC cipher suites.
Workaround:
Basically reconfigure certkeychain but avoid modifying the content.
1. On any BIG-IP system, leave only the RSA certkeychain in the clientSSL profile, just like the default configuration.
2. Config sync, so that both systems have only the RSA certkeychain.
3. In any BIG-IP system, add certkeychains for other types (EC or DSA) you need. You can "add" or "delete" but do not "modify" any existing certkeychain.
4. Do config sync, so that both systems have the same certkeychains in the clientSSL profile.
569972-2 : Unable to create gtm topology records using iControl REST
Component: Global Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
The user is unable to create gtm topology records using iControl REST.
Conditions:
This occurs when a user issues an iControl REST POST command for a gtm topology record.
Impact:
The iControl REST POST command fails with the following error: 'Topologies must specify both regions: ldns: server:'.
Workaround:
Use TMSH, iControl SOAP, or the GUI to create gtm topology records.
Fix:
You can now create gtm topology records using iControl REST.
Please be sure to format the gtm topology oid string using the following rules:
1) Use only a single space between each item in the topology string.
2) Use a fully-pathed name for datacenter, isp, region, and pool objects.
For example:
"ldns: subnet 11.11.11.0/24 server: datacenter /Common/DC".
569958-2 : Upgrade for application security anomalies

569642-4 : Deleting all routes on a unit with a mirroring fastL4 Virtual may cause TMM to core
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
In certain circumstances TMM may core if an HA pair configured with mirroring has all the routes to the server pool removed.
Conditions:
- HA pair.
- FastL4 VIP with mirroring.
- default route to pool via an intermediate router.
- The active unit is handling traffic.
- Active unit fails over and loses its mirroring connection.
- Prior active unit comes back and HA connection is reestablished.
- During the loss of HA and its recovery the now active unit loses its only route to the pool member.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Workaround:
Do not remove all routes to poolmembers. If this is needed please create other backup routes prior to the deletion.
Fix:
TMM no longer cores on deleting all routes on a unit with a mirroring fastL4 Virtual during HA connection loss and recovery.
569634 : Aced process is not able to listen to port 6000
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
When Aced process cannot listen to the port, it aborts and causes core dump to be produced.
Conditions:
In certain scenarios, an exiting instance of aced process does not perform a proper cleanup of the socket(listening of port 6000) and does not exit completely and the new instance of aced wont be able to listen to it.
Impact:
Aced process keeps crashing repeatedly.
Fix:
Aced process is fixed in order to explicitly close the socket file descriptor during exit. The new instance will be able to listen to that port.
569583-1 : Secondary Blade Rejects All Traffic after being added to the chassis★
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
After an upgrade ends in errors, the device may be left in a state that it erroneously believes to still be in the middle of the upgrade.
Conditions:
A second blade is installed into a chassis and there are errors as it comes up.
System configuration is never successfully loaded. This can occur during upgrades to versions prior to 12.0.0.
Impact:
Secondary blade blocks all ASM traffic.
Workaround:
1) Delete the /var/ts/var/install/ucs_install.pid file on all blades
2) Push a fresh sync from a good device.
Fix:
The system correctly detects that it is no longer in the middle of an upgrade.
569521-4 : Invalid WideIP name without dots crashes gtmd.
Component: Global Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
If a user creates a WideIP or WideIP Alias with a name that does not contain a dot, gtmd crashes.
The symptom is a crash and core dump from gtmd.
Conditions:
This occurs when the following conditions are met:
-- FQDN validation is suppressed by the following setting: gtm global-settings general domain-name-check == 'none'.
-- User attempts to create a WideIP with a name that does not contain a dot.
Impact:
gtmd crashes and WideIPs do not function.
Workaround:
When creating a WideIP or WideIP Alias while FQDN validation has been disabled (by setting gtm global-settings general domain-name-check == 'none'), make sure that the WideIP or WideIP Alias name contains at least one dot, and follows these rules:
-- The name must not end with a dot.
-- The name must not begin with a dot, unless '.' is the entire name.
-- The name contains no consecutive dots.
Fix:
FQDN now validates to confirm that a WideIP or WideIP Alias name has at least one dot in an appropriate position, and has no consecutive dots, so there is no crash and core dump from gtmd. This validation occurs even when other FQDN validation has been suppressed by setting
gtm globlal-settings general domain name check == 'none'.

Impact:
tmm cores.
Workaround:
Disable pool-member-selection for load-balancing-decision-log-verbosity.
Fix:
tmm no longer cores when disabling pool-member-selection for load-balancing-decision-log-verbosity.

As a result of this issue, you may encounter one or more of the following symptoms:
The system may randomly send the traffic using the incorrect nexthop.
Conditions:
-- BIG-IP configuration with two or more VLANs configured with IPv6 global addresses.
-- BGP with ECMP is peered with an active IPv6 BGP neighbor. -- BGP is configured with max-paths.
Impact:
The traffic randomly gets sent using the incorrect nexthop.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Routes learned from the peer now have the correct nexthop VLANs.

569349-2 : Packet's vlan priority is not preserved for CMP redirected flows when net cos feature is enabled
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When net cos (class of Service) feature is enabled, vlan priority for those cmp redirected packets are not being preserved from ingress to egress.
Conditions:
1. net cos feature is enabled
2. packet is being cmp redirected from one tmm to another tmm for processing.
Impact:
Egress packets are not being processed according to the ingress vlan priority by BIG-IP and down stream router. Certain packets will be dropped by downstream router due to the wrong mark of vlan priority.
Workaround:
None.
569337-2 : TCP events are logged twice in a HA setup
Component: Advanced Firewall Manager
Symptoms:
TCP log events are logged twice (if enabled in security log profile) with connection mirroring enabled on the virtual server in a HA setup (Active/Standby).
Conditions:
When there's a HA setup (Active/Standby) or both client side and server side connection flow.
Impact:
TCP log events are logged twice (duplicate events from active unit and standby unit or from both client side and server side of the connection flow).
Workaround:
N/A
Fix:
TCP log events are no longer logged twice when enabled in the security log profile with connection mirroring enabled on the virtual server in a HA setup (Active/Standby).
569309-1 : Clientside HTML parser does not recognize HTML event attributes without value
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Assignment of a specific HTML content to tag.innerHTML could lead to a JavaScript error. This happens when one or more of tags in HTML text contain html event attributes without value (such as <div onclick />)
Following or similar error is logged in browser JavaScript console:
Unable to get property 'charAt' of undefined or null reference
Impact:
Web application does not work when accessed through Portal Access.
Workaround:
iRule could be provided for specific application.

569306-3 : Edge client does not use logon credentials even when "Reuse Windows Logon Credentials" is selected
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
User is shown the logon page to connect to VPN after he logs on. Windows logon credentials are not used for VPN automatically.
Conditions:
Connectivity profile has "Reuse Windows Logon Credentials" selected
Impact:
User has to retype his credentials to connect to VPN
Workaround:
Enter the credentials again to connect to VPN
Fix:
Now logged on credentials are used automatically to connect to VPN
569288-2 : Different LACP key may be used in different blades in a chassis system causing trunking failures
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
In rare conditions, different blades in a chassis system may use different LACP keys for the same trunk in the LACP control frames. This will cause some of the LACP trunk members not able to aggregate successfully with peer switch.
Conditions:
This only happens in a chassis based system when certain race condition causes trunk id being modified after initial trunk creation.
Impact:
Non aggregated trunk members won't be able to pass traffic.
Workaround:
Restart lacpd in all the blades in the chassis by running command "clsh bigstart restart lacpd"
569255-3 : Network Access incorrectly manipulates routing table when second adapter being connected if "Allow Local subnet access' is set to ON
Solution Article: K81130213
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
When Network Access is already established and a second network interface is being connected to client system, VPN quickly reconnects, which breaks existing TCP connections. Because reconnect occurs very quickly, it might appear to the user that nothing happened.
Conditions:
-- 'Allow Local subnet access' enabled.
-- Client system is getting second network interface connected.
Impact:
Long-standing TCP connection may break, for example, VPN over Network Access.
Workaround:
Disable 'Allow Local subnet access'.
Fix:
Now Network Access remains stable when a second network interface is being connected, so any long-standing TCP connections (such as VPN over Network Access) continue as expected.
569236-4 : BIG-IP logs INVALID-SPI messages but does not remove the associated SAs.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
The BIG-IP system logs INVALID-SPI messages but does not remove the associated Security Associations (SAs) corresponding to the message. This is the first part of a fix provided for this issue. See fixes for bug 569236 for the second part.
Conditions:
This can occur if an IPsec peer deletes a phase2 (IPsec) SA and does not send a 'notify delete' message to the other peer. The INVALID-SPI message is most likely to be seen when the peer deletes an SA before the SA's agreed lifetime.
Impact:
If the BIG-IP is always the Initator, the Responder will not initiate a new tunnel if the Responder only handles responses to the BIG-IP clients' traffic. The BIG-IP system continues to use the IPsec SA it believes to be still up. When an SA expires prematurely, some IPsec peers will reject an inbound SPI packet with an ISAKMP INVALID-SPI notify message. If the INVALID-SPI message does not cause new SAs to be created, there will be a tunnel outage until the SA lifetime expires on the defunct SA held on the BIG-IP system.
Workaround:
Manually remove the invalid SA on the BIG-IP system.
Fix:
Now, when the BIG-IP system receives INVALID-SPI messages, it deletes the invalid Security Association as well as logging the INVALID-SPI message, so the tunnel can initiate again. This is part one of a two-part fix. Fixes for bug 583285 provide part two of the fix.
569206-2 : After connectivity loss and restoration between HSM and pkcs11d, SSL fails on some blades.

Conditions:
Connectivity loss and restoration between HSM and pkcs11d.
Impact:
Sometimes, one or more blades have SSL failure consistently. Others are working fine after the network restoring.
Workaround:
None. This is an intermittent failure.
Fix:
All blades now recover the working condition after the network is restored.
568889-2 : Some ZebOS daemons do not start on blade transition secondary to primary.
Solution Article: K22989000
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
In some specific cases the standby unit's secondary blade ZebOS daemons might not get started when it becomes active.
Conditions:
If the failover occurs as a result of the primary blade's mcpd restarting
Impact:
The new primary blade does not start some ZebOS daemons resulting in ospf not working as expected on the standby unit.
Workaround:
Run the following tmsh command on the new active unit: bigstart restart tmrouted.
Fix:
The BIG_IP system now correctly starts ZebOS daemons on the standby unit on a new blade that is starting up as a primary.
568743-3 : TMM core when dnssec queries to dns-express zone exceed nethsm capacity
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
tmm crashes, and in /var/log/ltm you see entries indicating "Signature failed":
err tmm1[16816]: 01010216:3: DNSSEC: Signature failed (signature creation) for RRSET (host0530.f5test.net, 1) with key /Common/myZSK2, generation 1.
Conditions:
This can occur when a dns-express zone generates more responses than the Thales can sign. The excess requests are queued and tmm can core.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
TMM no longer core when dnssec queries to dns-express zone exceed nethsm capacity.
568670-2 : ASM fails to start with error - ndefined subroutine &F5::CRC::get_crc32

Fix:
A rare condition in which asm fails to start has been fixed
568543-3 : Syncookie mode is activated on wildcard virtuals
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Syncookie mode can be activated with a wildcard virtual, even in the case where there is no SYN flood.
Conditions:
The default number of connections per second before activating syncookie mode is 1993. This value can be increased to a max of 4093. After this threshold is reached, then syncookie mode is activated. This is an insufficient maximum for wildcard virtuals, since they can have 30k+ connections per second.
Impact:
Syncookie mode is activated with high connection rates to a wildcard virtual.
Workaround:
Break up the wildcard virtual into multiple virtuals to reduce the number of connections per virtual.
Fix:
It is now possible to set the PvaSynCookies.Virtual.MaxSynCache DB variable to 64K (previous max was 4093)
568347-2 : BD Memory corruption
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
An Enforcer crash occurs and UMU errors may appear in the bd.log file.

567862-1 : intermittent SSL traffic failure with Safenet HSM on BIG-IP chassis and appliance
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
BIG-IP intermittently has SSL traffic failures with HSM. This symptom happens on both chassis and appliance. The general error messages are logged with
"FIPS acceleration device failure: fips_poll_completed_reqs: req: 44 status: 0x1 : Cancel"
Conditions:
When Safenet HSM is used with BIG-IP.
Impact:
SSL traffic is failing.
Workaround:
"bigstart restart pkcs11d" might mitigate this issue.
Fix:
Multiple issues are fixed including better sync-up between tmm and pkcs11d. Fixes are also included to deal with key handle changes at HSM.
567774-1 : ca-devices and non-ca-devices addition/deletion has been removed from restart cm trust-domain Root
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
The properties 'ca-devices' and 'non-ca-device' are available in the 'restart' command but are not valid.
Conditions:
None
Impact:
You should not use the restart command with the properties 'ca-devices' and 'non-ca-device'. It has to be used similar to the delete command.
Workaround:
A new tmsh command to reset a device trust was added:
'restart cm trust-domain Root' which operates exactly like 'delete cm trust-domain Root'. The properties 'ca-devices' and 'non-ca-device' are available in the 'restart' command but are not valid. These properties are not available in the 'delete cm trust-domain'. Workaround for customer is to not use these two properties when running the 'restart cm trust-domain' command or to use the 'delete cm trust-domain'
Fix:
The 'ca-devices' and 'non-ca-devices' properties were removed from the tmsh command 'restart cm trust-domain' command because they are not valid.
567660-2 : Disabling global Auto Last Hop setting breaks APM's Remote Desktop Gateway (RDG) feature
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
Existing TCP connection is being sporadically disrupted by BIGIP virtual server sending out a SYN, ACK, causing existing connection to fail.
The client and virtual server setup a good tcp connection, complete SSL handshake and starts to pass application data.
APM virtual then sends SYN, ACK with sequence and ack numbers which do not match existing stream.
The APM then tries three syn-ack's before giving up and sends out a rst-ack which drops the connection attempt, but as it shares the same ip:port number as the existing connection, resets the good connection.
Conditions:
Auto Last Hop setting is disabled
Impact:
APM RDG feature does not work
Workaround:
1. Enable Auto Last Hop
OR
2. Set cmp_enabled to 'NO' on virtual
Fix:
APM RDG feature now works as expected when Auto Last Hop is disabled.
567503-5 : ACCESS::remove can result in confusing ERR_NOT_FOUND logs
Solution Article: K03293396
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
When using the iRule command ACCESS::remove, ERR_NOT_FOUND messages may appear in /var/log/apm. Theses are not real errors. ACCESS is trying to insert a session variable, but it is not able to find the session because the iRule already deleted the session.
The logs in /var/log/apm look something like this:
err tmm1[15932]: 01490514:3: 00000000: Access encountered error: ERR_NOT_FOUND. File: ../modules/hudfilter/access/access.c, Function: access_save_init_req_to_sessiondb, Line: 14823.
Conditions:
An iRule using the command ACCESS::remove, and the end-user does a POST.
Impact:
No functional impact, the iRule correctly deletes the session, and BIG-IP does not send a reset. But the log messages can be alarming or confusing.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
ACCESS::remove no longer results in confusing ERR_NOT_FOUND logs.

567457-3 : TMM may crash when changing the IKE peer config.
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
TMM might crash when changing the IKE peer config. It can happen with either IKEv1 or IKEv2 (TMM config crash).
Conditions:
This occurs when making changes to IPsec tunnels that causes the configuration to become invalid. For example, changing ISAKMP phase1 from SHA-1 to MD5 results in an invalid configuration.
Note: This occurs in the GUI only. The tmsh 'create' command does not cause this core.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Workaround:
You can use tmsh to make the affected configuration changes... this occurs in the GUI only. The tmsh 'create' command does not cause this core.
Fix:
TMM no longer crashes when changing the IKEv1 or IKEv2 peer config, even if the changes are not valid for the configuration.

Local web server is inaccessible if proxy.pac is defined in a way that forwards all traffic over VPN to corporate proxy server.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
Webserver listening on local Wifi or Ethernet IP can be accessed after VPN even if proxy.pac is defined in a way that forwards all web traffic over VPN to corporate proxy server.
566758-2 : Manual changes to policy imported as XML may introduce corruption for Login Pages
Component: Application Security Manager
Symptoms:
Manual changes to policy imported as XML may introduce corruption for Login Pages. If the expiration period is omitted, the Login Page will be inaccessible.
Conditions:
Expiration period is omitted in hand-crafted XML policy file.
Impact:
The Login Page created as a result is inaccessible in GUI and REST.
Workaround:
Ensure that expiration period exists in XML policy file before import.
Fix:
A policy file, with a missing expiration field, imported as XML is now handled correctly.
566646-4 : Portal Access could respond very slowly for large text files when using IE < 11
Component: Access Policy Manager
Symptoms:
When accessing a large 'text/plain' file from server with Internet Explorer versions 7 through 10 client browsers, Portal Access sometimes holds the response until it fetches and processes the entire file contents. This can take several dozen seconds, or even minutes.
Conditions:
Internet Explorer version 7 through 10 with Portal Access
Impact:
Large text files can't be accessed or downloaded through Portal Access.
Workaround:
Irule that does any of following:
a) Preferred: append F5CH=I to request uri in HTTP_REQUEST for affected requests.
b) Call REWRITE::disable for affected requests.
Fix:
Fixed the issue where Portal Access could try to buffer contents of some large files and respond with significant delay.
566576-2 : ICAP/OneConnect reuses connection while previous response is in progress
Component: Service Provider
Symptoms:
ICAP with OneConnect sometimes initiates a new ICAP request (REQMOD or RESPMOD) on the server connection while a previous response on the same connection is still being streamed from the ICAP server. This can cause the server to append the new response after the end of the previous response, in the same packet.
Conditions:
There is a 'oneconnect' profile on the internal virtual server along with the 'icap' profile.
Triggered by a disconnection of the IVS by the parent HTTP virtual server, before the ICAP transaction is complete.
This can happen for a number of reasons, such as an error in detected on the HTTP virtual server, or an HTTP::respond iRule that replaces an IVS response in progress.
Impact:
The connection used by the interrupted transaction is returned to the pool for reuse, potentially resulting in a new ICAP transaction beginning before the end of the interrupted one, and its response may be concatenated to the incomplete tail of the first one. OneConnect is unable to separate the contiguous ICAP responses whose boundary is within a packet. All the packet payload goes to the first ICAP transaction, and any payload after the terminating chunk is discarded. Thus the beginning of the second response is lost and its header parser gets confused. It keeps waiting for more data and rescanning the entire response, resulting in increasing CPU use up to 100% until the connection is aborted.
Workaround:
Remove OneConnect.
Fix:
Big-IP with ICAP and OneConnect never reuses a server connection while a previous ICAP transaction is still in progress. Whenever the IVS disconnects prior to completion of an ICAP transaction, the connection is not pooled for reuse.
566507-2 : Wrong advertised next-hop in BGP for a traffic group in Active-Active deployment
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
The advertised next-hop is a floating-IP of the active traffic-group on a peer BIG-IP system, although it should be the floating-IP of the traffic-group active on the current BIG-IP system.
Conditions:
-- In a BIG-IP high availability (HA) configuration.
-- The HA configuration is Active-Active topology.
-- There are multiple traffic-groups, in which each device is active for one traffic-group.
Impact:
An incorrect next-hop in BGP is advertised for a traffic group in Active-Active deployment. Traffic for relevant advertised routes might go to a standby device.
Workaround:
Configure the floating address of a traffic group as the next-hop in its route-map.
Fix:
The advertised next-hop in BGP is now the smallest floating-IP active on the current BIG-IP system. Note: The ZebOS routing protocol suite available for BIG-IP configurations does not support traffic groups, so this issue might still be seen in certain circumstances.
566361-8 : RAM Cache Key Collision
Solution Article: K11543589
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
Intermittent tmm SIGSEGV when RAM Cache is enabled
Conditions:
This occurs when RAM cache is enabled in certain circumstances.
Impact:
Invalid response format, and/or serving the wrong object from cache, and/or tmm crash, interruption of service.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
The system now avoids RAM Cache Key collisions, the correct object and response format are delivered from the cache, and tmm no longer cores.
566071-1 : network-HSM may not be operational on secondary slots of a standby chassis.
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
pkcs11d may not be running on secondary slots of a chassis.
Conditions:
This might occur when the following conditions are true:
1. Network-HSM installed on BIG-IP chassis.
2. Chassis is in standby state OR Secondary slots do not have management IP configured.
Impact:
If SSL profiles are configured with keys of security-type 'nethsm' when the specified conditions are true, traffic for such profiles will fail when the affected slots process traffic.
Workaround:
Manually install netHSM on each secondary slot.
Fix:
netHSM install no longer depends on management IP of secondary slots and also successfully installs on slots of a standby chassis.
566061-3 : Subscriber info missing in flow report after subscriber has been deleted
Component: Policy Enforcement Manager
Symptoms:
If we have a subscriber flow during which the subscriber gets deleted, then the flow reports begin to report subscriber id as "unknown". It becomes difficult to map the flow to that specific subscriber.
Conditions:
Flow reporting is enabled for a subscriber. And the subscriber gets deleted in the middle of a flow.
Impact:
If the customer is looking for subscriber id to match the flows, then they would miss out on these flows that get reported with unknown subscriber.
Fix:
We now save the subscriber id so that it can be accessed even after the subscriber has been deleted.
565895-4 : Multiple PCRE Vulnerabilities
Solution Article: K17235
565810-2 : OneConnect profile with an idle or strict limit-type might lead to tmm core.
Solution Article: K93065637
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
OneConnect profile with an idle or strict limit-type might lead to tmm core.
Conditions:
OneConnect profile with a limit-type value of idle or strict.
Impact:
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Workaround:
Use a limit-type of 'none'.
Fix:
A OneConnect profile using an idle or strict limit-type no longer causes the tmm to core when attempting to shutdown idle connections.
565799-2 : CPU Usage increases when using masquerade addresses
Component: Local Traffic Manager
Symptoms:
When using masquerade addresses, CPU usage increases. This can ultimately lead to a reduction in device capacity.
Conditions:
This can occur if one or more of your traffic groups is configured to use a MAC Masquerade address.
Impact:
Possible performance degradation or reduction in capacity
Fix:
Performance of masquerade address checks is restored.
565765-3 : Flow reporting does not occur for unclassified flows.
Component: Policy Enforcement Manager
Symptoms:
Flow reports are missing for some of the flows.
Conditions:
Flow reporting action has been configured with no classification filter. This was observed for flows that remained unclassified until the very end.
Impact:
If you are using flow reports to track the data usage of the subscriber, the usage will not be accurate.
Workaround:
None.
Fix:
For flows that do not get classified at all, the system now sends out flow reports at the end of the flow. The FLOW_INIT and FLOW_END reports are sent out in this case (that is, there are no FLOW_INTERIM reports). This is correct behavior
565534-2 : Some failover configuration items may fail to take effect
Solution Article: K40254066
Component: TMOS
Symptoms:
These symptoms apply to version 12.0.0 and later:
When only multicast failover is configured, traffic-groups are active on all devices in the device-group. If unicast failover is also configured, the traffic-group unexpectedly switches to a different device.
These symptoms can occur on all versions:
When the unicast address list is changed at the same time as other device properties, sod (the failover daemon) may fail to recognize one of the other changes.
Conditions:
For version 12.0.0 and later:
Multicast failover is configured and the system loads the configuration from the configuration files. For example during the first boot of a new boot location, or after performing the procedure in K13030: Forcing the mcpd process to reload the BIG-IP configuration https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K13030.
For all versions:
A change is made to the cm device configuration that includes a unicast-address change along with something else.
Impact:
When only multicast failover is configured, traffic-groups may become active on all devices in the device-group. If unicast failover is also configured, the traffic-group might switch to a different device.
Workaround:
Mitigation for v12.0.0 (and later) symptom:
To restore multicast failover, disable and re-enable multicast failover.
To do so, perform the following procedure on the the local device.
1. Determine which interface is being used for multicast failover by running the follo
