Asbjørn Ulsberg<p>Nothing being properly specified, the cardinality of the different `X-Forwarded-*` headers when used in combination, is also entirely undefined. Which values go with which when several `X-Forwarded-Host` and `X-Forwarded-Proto` are specified, for instance? How do you pair them up? Who knows! 🤷🏽‍♂️</p><p>However, the most important problem is that these headers impose a large security and privacy risk. Not having a common, evolving specification in which these security and privacy risks are discussed, and mitigated, is a major threat to the security of server infrastructure and the privacy of the users of that infrastructure.</p><p><a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Forwarded-For#security_and_privacy_concerns" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">developer.mozilla.org/en-US/do</span><span class="invisible">cs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Forwarded-For#security_and_privacy_concerns</span></a></p><p><a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/Microsoft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Microsoft</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/Azure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Azure</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/HTTP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HTTP</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/Forwarded" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Forwarded</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/Header" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Header</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/Standard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Standard</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/Standards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Standards</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/Standardization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Standardization</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/Standardisation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Standardisation</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/RFC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RFC</span></a> <a href="https://icosahedron.website/tags/IETF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IETF</span></a></p>
Asbjørn Ulsberg<p>It’s sad to see Microsoft Azure reenforcing the entrenchment of the non-standard, unspecified, buggy and insecure `X-Forwarded-*` headers:</p><p><a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/app-service-ip-restrictions?tabs=azurecli#filter-by-http-header" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azur</span><span class="invisible">e/app-service/app-service-ip-restrictions?tabs=azurecli#filter-by-http-header</span></a></p><p>…instead of the standard `Forwarded` header specified in RFC 7239:</p><p><a href="https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7239.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7239.htm</span><span class="invisible">l</span></a></p><p>What's the problem with the `X-Forwarded-*` headers, you may ask? Well, for starters, there isn’t a specification in existence that tells implementers what to expect of their contents.</p><p>There's sort of a least common multiple of allowed values adhering to a sort of familiar HTTP header syntax, but no specification laying out "this is supported, period" exists. This is an interoperability nightmare in itself. Should the headers support one or multiple values?

Gurre Vildskägg<p>From the replies I get:<br>Harmonizing the electrification of railways in Europe wouldn't be bad, but is not a priority at all. Locos &amp; EMUs are often built today to handle more than one system, and that's how it'll be handled mostly. <br>But maybe smaller networks with odd power settings could be worth changing? </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/electrification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>electrification</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/railways" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>railways</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/rail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rail</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/railroad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>railroad</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/trains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trains</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/infrastructure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>infrastructure</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/standardisation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>standardisation</span></a></p>
