proxy: inject X-Forwarded-For/Proto/Host into upstream requests - #133
Merged
Conversation
Implements upstream_request_filter so origin servers see the real client IP, connection scheme, and requested host instead of the proxy's own address and always-plain-HTTP view. Any X-Forwarded-* sent by the client is overwritten rather than trusted, since TLS terminates at this proxy and it is the authoritative source for those values. Fixes NullNet-ai#127
