Summary
Ghost through 5.85.1 allows remote attackers to bypass an authentication rate-limit protection mechanism by using many X-Forwarded-For headers with different values. NOTE: the vendor's position is that Ghost should be installed with a reverse proxy that allows only trusted X-Forwarded-For headers.
