Description:

Issue

Both Mozilla Firefox 49+ and Google Chrome 56+ allow users to manually enable TLS 1.3 support in their browser configurations. When TLS 1.3 support is manually enabled in the browser, connections through the HTTPS proxy will fail if Content Inspection is disabled and the option Allow Only SSL Compliant Traffic is enabled. Firefox displays the error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_UNEXPECTED_APPLICATION_DATAChrome displays the error code: SSL_VERSION_INTERFERENCEConnections will succeed using TLS 1.3 through the HTTPS proxy if Content Inspection is disabled and the option Allow Only SSL Compliant Traffic is disabled.Connections will also succeed, but are downgraded to use TLS 1.2 through the HTTPS proxy if Content Inspection is enabled.

Workaround/Solution

To avoid this issue, you must either disable TLS 1.3 support in your browser, or use an HTTPS proxy with the Allow Only SSL Compliant Traffic option disabled.
