SameSite setting for ROUTERID-cookies

We seem to have some trouble with the SameSite setting missing in the ROUTERID-cookies used by the Webserver protection session stickiness. Since the introduction of Chrome 80 we see an increase of users not returning to the same real servers. This only seems to happen when the user returns to our domain via a POST-request from an external site and seems to has all to do with the defaulting to 'lax' by Chrome >80.

Does anybody also seen this or know how to work around this (other then hacking the httpd.conf files)?

  • Hello M.D

    Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community.

    I asked a senior Support Engineer, but they requested if you have any example so we can ask DEV about this, it might just be an issue with Chrome 80.

    Do you have any log that you can share?

    Regards,

  • Hi Emmanuel,

    As a temporary fix we've done the following on our UTM's:

    sed -i.old 's/secure" env=BALANCER_ROUTE_CHANGED/secure; SameSite=None" env=BALANCER_ROUTE_CHANGED/' /var/storage/chroot-reverseproxy/usr/apache/conf/reverseproxy.conf
    /var/mdw/scripts/reverseproxy restart

    The problem manifests itself when we send users to external payment/transaction pages from which they return with an HTTP-POST request:

    Regards,

     

    Marcel

     

    P.S. Do not forget that any changes in 'webserver protection' done in the GUI will revert these changes, as will an HA-switch-over!

  • Hello M.D

    Thank you for the follow-up and the workaround.

    I will ask the Senior Engineer about this, now that you have provided the example to see if we can bring up as a question to DEV for them to tell what would be the path to follow.

    Regards,

  • Hello M.D,

    The Senior Engineer is asking if you could provide the Config file before the sed command and after the sed command.

    Please send this via PM.

    And also do you have multiple real servers for the virtual server or is it just one and one?
