In versions prior to
[v1.49.0](https://github.com/pglombardo/PasswordPusher/releases/tag/v1.49.0),

bad actors to send unlimited traffic to the site potentially causing
a denial of service.

It is highly suggested to upgrade to at least [v1.49.0] to mitigate this risk.
If for some reason you cannot immediately upgrade, the alternative
is that you can add rules to your proxy and/or firewall to not
accept external proxy headers such as `X-Forwarded-*` from clients.
