The following content describes a known issue in Guardian. This issue is now working as expected.
| Created | Found in Release | Fixed in Release | Last Updated | Reference ID | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3rd September 2024 | V3.47.3 | V3.47.3, V3.48.0 | 21st November 2024 | KI.GWB.6014 | Working as Expected |
| Problem |
When attempting to access a node's scan results, or a difference report for two scans, Guardian was taking excessively long to load the request. |
| Cause |
The Ignore List for the selected nodes contained various wildcards ('*') to filter the results. Guardian was incorrectly processing each item on the Ignore List as a regular expression (RegEx), even if it didn't contain a wildcard. Due to the complexity of running RegExes against each item in the Ignore List, the requests were processing extremely slowly. |
| Solution |
This issue was resolved in V3.47.3 and V3.48.0 of Guardian. Now, Guardian runs a preliminary check for wildcards before processing an item on the Ignore List as a RegEx. When accessing a node's scan results, or a difference report for two scans, Guardian processes the request in a timely manner. Upgrade to V3.47.3 or V3.48.0 of Guardian (or later) to resolve this issue. |
