Matti Paksula commented on CB-1494:
-----------------------------------
_> Whether or not you submit a CCLA, YOU WILL ALSO NEED TO SUBMIT AN ICLA._
Yes, both ICLA (5x from all of us at AppGyver) and CCLA are being submitted to
ASF ~tomorrow.
_> Also note that it wasn't immediately clear to me that the XFF header can
actually be a set of IP addresses, not just one._
You are right, I did not look into XFF in detail. I've updated the pull request
to take the last ip or host from the string (the last is set by the proxy and I
verified that it actually works in Heroku):
{quote}
$ curl --header "X-Forwarded-For: gooby.plz.dolan.io"
"http://limitless-shelf-9248.herokuapp.com"
trololololo.dolan.io, 88.112.131.21
{quote}
... so actual host/ip gets set even if spoofing is attempted. So there should
not be any security implications.
I've updated the pull-request with a new commit to support a set of addresses.
Testable pre-built NPM of that is here:
https://github.com/downloads/AppGyver/incubator-cordova-weinre/apache-cordova-weinre-2.0.0-pre-H78XI5TK-incubating-bin.tar.gz
We could also add an option to turn support for XFF on, but I think it should
be the default behaviour and used if set (like you would expect when you deploy
Weinre to Heroku or other proxied environment)
_> Although, I'm wondering about places we dump the ip address into HTML to
being with - like in the remote panel. Can someone check that?_
Yes it gets dumped, but should this be fixed?
_> Should we add something to the doc? I'm thinking a quick mention that we
support XFF should be good enough._
Yes, adding a bullet in MultiUser.html notes section?
(are there any plans to write some tests for weinre?)
(what about the state of documentation?)
