Has anybody encountered a situation where a rule was configured for one application but matched other applications?

L1 Bithead

I have the following rule

I used 'any' as the service because we have web servers running on multiple ports and not just on the default.

While it does match ssl and web-browsing traffic as expected,  it also matches unexpected application traffic like the following

I don't understand why it would match oracle traffic.  Any ideas?

Yup that doesn't make any sense. I suggest you open a case if you haven't. As a test, you can put a deny all rule at the bottom  and see if oracle is still being allowed but make sure you've allowed EVERYTHING that you need because you'll see a lot of blocked traffic which will cause issues with your users. Probably do that after hours. Hope that helps.
