Summary

The flaw is in the Client SSL profile handling of F5 BIG-IP (LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, GTM, Link Controller, PEM, PSM), specifically on virtual servers where the non-default Session Tickets option is enabled, which can leak up to 31 bytes of uninitialized memory. A remote attacker can exploit this to obtain SSL session IDs from other sessions, and potentially other uninitialized memory data.
