Get Started with Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules for AWS WAF
Note
Applicable rules:
Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules for AWS WAF -HighSecurity OWASP Set-
Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules for AWS WAF -API Gateway/Serverless-
In the managed rules listed above, Continue is selected for the oversize handling instructions of rules that inspect Body and JSON Body.
This means that the rules will inspect the first 8KB (8,192 bytes) of the request, but the rest of the strings that exceed the limit will be excluded from the inspection without taking actions Count/Block, allowing the request to pass the rules.
Therefore, if you would like to block a request that may include attacks after the first 8KB (8,192 bytes), you will need to create a rule that will block any HTTP request that exceeds 8 KB (8,192 bytes).
