Remediation

Vendor Workaround

Use HTTPS on the platform ingress if possible. Since this is a problem in edge-terminated AAP deployments where requests have TLS terminated right before the platform ingress, enforce trusted origins before requests reach the gateway. A tool such as a Web-application firewall should be able to manage this issue.
