What changes did you make? (Give an overview)
Added better parsing of the
X-Forwarded-For
header whentrustProxy
is enabled.The
X-Forwarded-For
header can contain a comma-separated list of IP addresses, the first being the client IP and the rest being the addresses of the proxies that the request passed through.https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Forwarded-For#syntax
There was no handling for this in the server code, so if a list was passed in the header the IP regex test would fail and the peer doing the announce would not be added to the tracker.
This PR adds handling for when the header contains a comma-separated list, by splitting the header on
,
and setting theip
property to only the first value.Which issue (if any) does this pull request address?
None
Is there anything you'd like reviewers to focus on?
I was unable to run the tests on an M1 macbook due to an arch error, so please check tests are passing.
