Security covered
This module integrates with the consumers contrib-module to provide a way to map the value of a given HTTP-Header to the X-Forwarded-For HTTP-Header value for the incoming request.
This is useful to make the integrated flood handling work when e.g. the request comes from a serverless function which passes the client's ip address in e.g. the X-Client-IP header.
Features
If enabled for the request's negotiated consumer, takes the value of the configured HTTP-Header (e.g. X-Client-IP) and sets it as the value of the X-Forwarded-For for the incoming request.
This effectively means that $request->getClientIp() returns the value of the configured HTTP header instead of the default X-Forwarded-For value.
