Résumé
Password Pusher's rate limiter can be bypassed by forging proxy headers
Description d'origine
La description telle que publiée par la source (souvent en anglais).
Password Pusher, an open source application to communicate sensitive information over the web, comes with a configurable rate limiter. In versions prior to v1.49.0, the rate limiter could be bypassed by forging proxy headers allowing bad actors to send unlimited traffic to the site potentially causing a denial of service. In v1.49.0, a fix was implemented to only authorize proxies on local IPs which resolves this issue. As a workaround, one may add rules to one's proxy and/or firewall to not accept external proxy headers such as X-Forwarded-* from clients.
