Bug ID: 69672
Summary: mod_remoteip rejecting valid IPv4-mapped IPv6
addresses
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.4.63
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: mod_remoteip
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
I'm having a haproxy, which uses the proxy protocol to report the client IP
addresses to the backend server, which is Apache with mod_remoteip and
"RemoteIPProxyProtocol on". IPv4 connections are by default and intentionally
IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses. mod_remoteip however refuses those IPs and all
those connections fail:

[client 192.168.4.1:36328] AH03500: RemoteIPProxyProtocol: invalid

::ffff:123.168.110.148 ::ffff:99.243.150.199 31875 443'
