I am working on this pet project of mine, and I had an HTTP service built with akka-http on-line. The other day I found out it was unavailable, and when I checked in the logs it appears I was a victim of this attack:
http://www.skepticism.us/2015/05/13/ I lost the error message, but it was pretty clear that the described request dropped my server, and the problem was the absence of the `Host` header. Now, isn't this something akka-http, or any HTTP server or framework, should be robust to? Is there anything I should or could have done as a user to prevent this problem, or should I be filing a bug report? Also, what is a proper way to keep the service running? I was just calling sbt from the command line, really experimental, I know there are better ways out there but I don't know where to start.
