Description Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-09-23 14:20:20 UTC 
CVE-2009-3287 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-3287):
  lib/thin/connection.rb in Thin web server before 1.2.4 relies on the
  X-Forwarded-For header to determine the IP address of the client,
  which allows remote attackers to spoof the IP address and hide
  activities via a modified X-Forwarded-For header.
