Web Proxy Filtering and Caching / "SSL no bump sites" doesn't work for Win Updates
« on: September 21, 2019, 03:25:02 pm »
Hi,
Goal
Get Windows Updates working over transparent HTTPS Squid Proxy.
Problem
Some entries in the "SSL no bump sites" list seem to be inactive.
Version
19.7.4_1
Description
For example, one of the sites used for windows updates seems to be settings-win.data.microsoft.com. No matter what I tried, I could not get this site to not be intercepted. The reason I know it is not intercepted is because I can see the full path in the logs. I tried the following no-bump configurations:
.microsoft.com -> Log shows https://settings-win.data.microsoft.com/settings/v2.0/WSD/WaaSAssessment? is being accessed.
settings-win.data.microsoft.com -> Log shows https://settings-win.data.microsoft.com/settings/v2.0/FlightSettings/FSService? is being accessed.
.data.microsoft.com -> Log shows https://settings-win.data.microsoft.com/settings/v2.0/wsd/muse? is being accessed.
So does it work at all? Yes it does. For example with a bank site:
.db.com -> Log shows 160.83.8.143:443 is being accessed. No path visible which means no-bump entry works.
Removed the .db.com entry again -> Log shows https://www.db.com/company/img/favicon.ico is being accessed.
In between I checked the content of the config file, looked good to me:
Any hints will be greatly appreciated.

I get my internal IP address as usual but default gateway is just empty. When I set a static IP and static default gateway on my client the connection works again. So in order to fix this I went to Services > DHCP > Server and in the "Gateway" field, which was empty, I did set the firewall IP (for example 192.168.1.1). And now after ipconfig /renew on the client, everything works again. I am not sure about the config of this field before my upgrade though... if this got deleted or the mechanics changed?
