Web Protection makes non-blocked domain time out

I'm having an odd issue with Web Protection causing a website to time out and never load.

The Web Protection log shows it passing the website.

 

Yet the website won't load. However, if I disable the Web Protection module, the website then loads. So it seems Web Protection is still interfering somehow.

Here's a packet capture of a session when I tried to load the site.

I tried whitelisting the domain in Web Protection, but the issue remains.

EDIT: I'm running UTM version 9.509-3.

  • In my observation, most major websites have embedded components from unrelated sources.   I would check the web filtering logs for something getting blocked by category, and the intrusion protection logs for something getting blocked by IPS.   IPS blocks should also produce a webfilter log entry of timeout (502 if I remember correctly), but only after a delay of up to two minutes.   I don't think I have ever seen a timeout where the only statuscode is 200.
