title: Password Pusher rate limiter can be bypassed by forging proxy headers | ||
date: 2024-11-20 | ||
description: | | ||
### Impact | ||
Password Pusher comes with a configurable rate limiter. | ||
In versions prior to [v1.49.0], the rate limiter could be bypassed by forging | ||
proxy headers allowing bad actors to send unlimited traffic to the site | ||
potentially causing a denial of service. | ||
### Patches | ||
In [v1.49.0], a fix was implemented to only authorize proxies on local IPs which | ||
resolves this issue. | ||
If you are running a remote proxy, please see | ||
[this documentation](https://docs.pwpush.com/docs/proxies/#trusted-proxies) | ||
on how to authorize the IP address of your remote proxy. | ||
### Workarounds | ||
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. | ||
### References | ||
The new settings are [configurable to authorize remote proxies][1]. | ||
