Title:
Apache2 mod_remoteip+rewrite allows client to forge IP address
Status in apache2 package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in apache2 source package in Xenial:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Apache bug #60251 describes this problem:
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60251
mod_remoteip allows us to set the client's IP address using a trusted
proxy's X-Forwarded-For header. However, in a location which uses a
RewriteRule, the last IP address in the chain is incorrectly stripped
while redirecting to the new location, allowing a caller to forge
whatever IP address they like by including it in an X-Forwarded-For
header.
Version 2.4.18-2ubuntu3.8 is vulnerable to this in Xenial. This is
fixed upstream in 2.4.24, can the fix be backported to xenial-updates?
