+<overview>
+<p>An original client IP address is retrieved from an http header (<code>X-Forwarded-For</code> or <code>X-Real-IP</code> or <code>Proxy-Client-IP</code> 
+etc.), which is used to ensure security. Attackers can forge the value of these identifiers to
+bypass a ban-list, for example.</p>
+
+</overview>
+<recommendation>
+
+<p>Do not trust the values of HTTP headers allegedly identifying the originating IP. If you are aware your application will run behind some reverse proxies then the last entry of a <code>X-Forwarded-For</code> header value may be more trustworthy than the rest of it because some reverse proxies append the IP address they observed to the end of any remote-supplied header.</p>
+
+</recommendation>
+<example>
+
+<p>The following examples show the bad case and the good case respectively.
+In <code>bad1</code> method and <code>bad2</code> method, the client ip the <code>X-Forwarded-For</code> is split into comma-separated values, but the less-trustworthy first one is used. Both of these examples could be deceived by providing a forged HTTP header. The method
+<code>good1</code> similarly splits an <code>X-Forwarded-For</code> value, but uses the last, more-trustworthy entry.</p>
