On BIG-IP versions 16.x before 16.1.0, 15.1.x before 15.1.4.1, and 14.1.2.6-14.1.4.4, when a Client SSL profile is configured on a virtual server with Client Certificate Authentication set to request/require and Session Ticket enabled and configured, processing SSL traffic can cause an increase in memory resource utilization. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
