• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Petr Cerny [:hrosik] 2022-03-30 22:37:22 UTC]

The NAXSI plugin seems to be broken, emerging www-servers/nginx-1.12.6-r1[nginx_modules_http_naxsi] ends with the following error:

looks like upstream issue with naxsi

https://github.com/nbs-system/naxsi/issues/580
https://github.com/nginx/nginx/commit/d5f1f169bc71d32b96960266d54e189c69af00ba

[Comment 8 John Tate 2022-06-18 15:50:21 UTC]

It's certainly broken, I found this patch that Arch is using to fix the problem...

https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/blob/packages/nginx-mod-naxsi/trunk/587-pcre2.patch

This could be used to fix the ebuild.
