Description

In BIG-IP Versions 17.0.x before 17.0.0.1 and 16.1.x before 16.1.3.1, when source-port preserve-strict is configured on an HTTP Message Routing Framework (MRF) virtual server, undisclosed traffic may cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to produce a core file and the connection to terminate. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
