Hello everyone,

I finally understand what's going on here...

http://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/us/threat-encyclopedia/vulnerability/10236/python-http-proxy-header-injection-vulnerability-cve20161000110

I have been a victim of this attack, nginx is also affected, is there 
any patch for this new vulnerability?

Thank you,
Hamza
