Quarantine Report uses HTTP links instead of HTTPS

Costas

Hello everyone,

We are using UTM version 9.510-5 on hardware appliances.

After updating to version 9.510-5 on Aug 16, 2018, all users started complaining about not being able to release their rejected emails from the quarantine. When clicking on the Release link within Quarantine Report, the browsers (Chrome and Mozilla) display this page:

Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port.
Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please.

Additionally, a 400 Bad Request error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

The IE11 simply displays a Web page not found (404) message.

I figured out, the Release and Whitelist links within Quarantine Report point to a URL similar to this:

http://firewall:3840/release.plc?proto=pop3&id=233473&secure=39bf55d252ef2ca8e9be4fc5bfa75140

Then, I pasted this link into my browser and changed http to https. It worked just fine, and I got back a normal message from UTM.

Can anybody suggest where in UTM there is a setting to configure the Release and Whitelist links within Quarantine Report sent by email (see image below) to be https instead of http? I seem to have checked everything: Management, Email Protection, and all other sections...

Will appreciate any advice!

    Thank you Heinrich for sharing, but it did not work for me unfortunately.

    I did it two times:
    1. Disabled and re-enabled the quarantine report without Hostname change.
    2. Same WITH hosname change

    For each of these scenarios, changed the schedule when quarantine report delivered and sent myself a spam email. The links still use HTTP...

    Thank you anyway.

    Same problem here checked 5 on machines.

     

    The problem exists also by using new reports. the link is a http not a https link. Already inserted a hostname in advanced option of quarantine report. After inserting hostname i stopped quarantine report and the restarted the report. send a "please buy viagra" :-) mail and wait for the next report: no change - no https link.

     

    Does anyone know what else could help?

     

    Thanks and regards

    To update everyone on the status of my support ticket with Sophos,

    There's been nothing useful during the course of the week of Aug 20th. Sophos eventually escalated the case to their global escalation specialists (GES) level, who is supposed to response within 2 business days, which is the end of Tuesday, Aug 28th.

    Will post the results...

    GES will collect the documentation for sending your problem to development.   You have made it through the hurdles.

    In the more distant past, Sophos would go silent after GES made their bug package.   On my most recent GES case, I was favorably impressed because I received email updates on a regular basis (I think about every 2-3 weeks) until the patch was released in a new version.   Wonder whether your bug will be a hotfix or a future release.

    Unfortunately, my patch is in 9.510 but I have been afraid to upgrade so I am still on 9.506.

    Hello,

     

    we experience the same issue with 9.510-5.

     

    Any news from sophos on how long it is expected to solve this bug?

     

    Thanks,

    The problem is still on and keeps me busy releasing spammed email from quarantine for everyone in the company.

    Sophos informed us last week that they could not replicate the issue in their environment, and requested my consent to install an RPM package to collect more logs.

    Hi Peter,

    Thank you for your reply, however this is not an answer as you suggested.

    If re-read my question, you will see, that the links in version 9.510-5 are formed as http, not https...
