Steps to reproduce
  1. running NC 32 via Docker Compose, using official NC FPM containers and a Redis container (with password) for caching and notify_push, specifying redis port and password in NC config.php.
  2. configured nginx container's nginx.conf for push notifications via
  3. ran ./occ notify_push:set up https://hub.magnificent.nz/push
Expected behaviour

I expect to see:

  • redis is configured
  • connected to push server
    ... other positive messages.
Actual behaviour

I see:

  • redis is configured
  • x can't connect to push server: Server error: GET https://hub.magnificent.nz/push/test/cookie resulted in a 502 Bad Gateway

In the Redis container log, I see the following message:

"Possible SECURITY ATTACK detected. It looks like somebody is sending POST or Host: commands to Redis. This is likely due to an attacker attempting to use Cross Protocol Scripting to compromise your Redis instance. Connection from 172.20.0.1:60848 aborted."

Could this be due to the notify_push:setup script not sending the Redis password? It is set correctly in the relevant part of config.php (and redis works for caching)

Server configuration

Web server: Nginx (container and reverse proxy)

Database: MariaDB

PHP version: 8.3.30

Research direction

Start with the ./occ notify_push:set command, config.php Redis settings, nginx.conf, and the Redis container log described in the report. Reproduce the Docker Compose setup and trace the push-server test request; done means the command connects to the push server without Redis reporting a cross-protocol request.
