Microsoft InTune WUDO has a similar bug costing my department 40000 € internal charging per month for firewall log traffic of blocked tcp 7680 requests. 86000 requests per day per client, 160 million per day total. MS confirmed the bug but did nothing to fix it.

They are building features right now. There are a lot of bugs which Microsoft will never fix, or it fixes them after years. (Double click registered on mouse single clicks, clicking "x" to close the window, closes also the window underneat, GUI elements rendered as black due to monitor not recognized etc).

how? Do you investigate each blocked packet as separate alert?

Yes, all packets get logged (metadata only). Otherwise we wouldn’t know there is an issue.

Those packets consume bandwidth and device utilization, too but this is flat fee, whereas log traffic is measured per GB so we investigated where an unexpected growth came from.
