PH_Rule_Threats_BIGIP_1
Enabled
This indicates an attack attempt to exploit a Buffer Overflow Vulnerability in F5 BIG-IP Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM). The vulnerability is due to an input validation error when normalizing invalid IPv6 hostnames. A remote attacker may be able to exploit this to execute arbitrary code or lead to a denial of service condition within the context of the application, via a crafted HTTP request.

Correlation
Check if the source is patched for the CVE associated with the event. If yes then remove the host from the network and patch immediately. If host is not scanned then determine if the host is running the affected version of the application. If yes then patch immediately, else it is likely a false positive.
If the following pattern or patterns match an ingested event within the given time window in seconds, trigger an incident.
300 seconds
If the following defined pattern/s occur within a 300 second time window.
F5
This is the named definition of the event query, this is important if multiple subpatterns are defined to distinguish them.
This is the query logic that matches incoming events
eventType CONTAIN "FortiGate-ips-signature-" AND ipsSignatureId IN (49979,50002,49976) AND eventAction = 0
This defines how matching events are aggregated, only events with the same matching attribute values are grouped into one unique incident ID
destIpPort,usrMsg,ipsSignatureId,srcIpAddr,destIpAddr
This is most typically a numerical constraint that defines when the rule should trigger an incident
COUNT(*) >= 1
This section defines which fields in matching raw events should be mapped to the incident attributes in the resulting incident.
The available raw event attributes to map are limited to the group by attributes and the aggregate event constraint fields for each subpattern
srcIpAddr=F5.srcIpAddr,
destIpAddr=F5.destIpAddr,
ipsSignatureId=F5.ipsSignatureId,
destIpPort=F5.destIpPort,
usrMsg=F5.usrMsg
