Hi Support
Thanks for a very nice product!

At the latest I have a lot of security exceptions on a site that I'm the administrator of. I have receved 244 exceptions with the folowing ending after the sites domain name: ?format=feed&type=rss
(https://domainname.dk/?format=feed&type=rss)

Do you hav any idea on what this is?

Best regards
Jens Riishede

That's a known issue that will be fixed in the next version that should be released next week.
Please get inside the Configure WAF page and safe it (there's no need to change anything).
There's a problem with default values, by forcing the save of the page you will fix this issue.
Sorry for the trouble.
