On BIG-IP version 16.x before 16.1.0, 15.1.x before 15.1.4.1, 14.1.x before 14.1.4.4, and all versions of 13.1.x, 12.1.x, and 11.6.x, when a FastL4 profile is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed traffic can cause an increase in memory resource utilization. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
Weakness
The product checks the state of a resource before using that resource, but the resource’s state can change between the check and the use in a way that invalidates the results of the check.
