Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to spoof the client ip used in security decisions.

The vulnerability exists due to reliance on untrusted inputs in a security decision in X-Forwarded-For header parsing when processing requests forwarded by trusted proxies that append or preserve header values. A remote attacker can supply a crafted X-Forwarded-For header to spoof the client ip used in security decisions.

The issue affects deployments behind trusted proxies with non-recommended forwarding behavior.
