Hi all,
we are using Apache 2.4.x with ModSec 2.9.2 proxying Outlook Web Access
2016.
I ran for a while in DetectionOnly, so whitelisting every necessary rule.
When I switched to "On" (block), I started getting issues.
During the first request the backend system answers with 401, and providing
3 WWW-Authenticate headers:
WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="myhostname.mydomain"
WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate
WWW-Authenticate: NTLM
During the following request Apache directly answers 403 without proxying
the request to the backend... nor logging anything useful.
I don't understand how the switching from "DetectionOnly" to "On" could
interfere with the processing without logging anything.
I ask you what are the undocumented settings that are changed under the
hood together with that configuration switch...
Thank you in advance
Marco
