    Environment


    • Palo Alto Firewalls
    • Pan-OS below 11.1.0, 11.0.2, 10.2.5, 10.1.11, 9.1.17
    • GlobalProtect clientless VPN Portal


    Cause


    • SSLProxy traffic is dropped when the zone protection profile is enabled either on clientless VPN portal zone of clientless VPN zone. 
    • SSLProxy traffic is dropped when the zone protection profile is enabled for the zone  where clientless VPN portal is hosted  and also under the clientless VPN zone 
    • Check if  the 'strict ip address check' under Zone Protection Profile > Packet based Attack protection is enabled

    Resolution


    1. The issue is addressed under "PAN-210883" under 10.2.510.1.11 and  9.1.17 versions
    2. Upgrade of the the firewall to the fixed releases will address the issue.
    3. As a workaround, uncheck the "Strict IP Address Check" option under GUI: network > network-profiles >zone-protection > packet base attack protection > Strict IP Address Check
