My issue:

i have a lot of vhost but two specific with :

server_name 007.lan;

and another with :

server_name proxy01.007.lan proxy02.007.lan localhost;

After upgrade, go to proxy01.007.lan match the 007.lan vhost instead of proxy01.007.lan vhost

How I encountered the problem:

By upgrading to 1.27.2 to 1.27.4

Solutions I’ve tried:

Disable 007.lan vhost solve the problem for proxy01.007.lan and proxy02.007.lan.

Rollback to 1.27.2 solves issue too but expose to the CVE

My config:

Debian Bookwork
Nginx 1.27.4

I had no issues running this on 1.27.4 albeit on Ubuntu. Its a simplistic setup on my end but I was able to test locally and remotely to Nginx.

Are requests using the appropriate host header? If you have some verbose access logs you can see if the the correct header is being presented at request.

root@nginx03:/etc/nginx/conf.d# nginx -v
nginx version: nginx/1.27.4

root@nginx03:/etc/nginx/conf.d# cat 007.lan.conf proxy01.007.lan.conf
server {
    server_name .007.lan;
    listen 80;

    location / {
        return 200 "\n007.lan domain\n";
        add_header Content-Type text/plain;
    }
}
server {
    server_name proxy01.007.lan;
    listen 80;

    location / {
        return 200 "\nproxy01.007.lan domain\n";
    }
}

Hello

I tried your files, and I continue to investigate

When I try to go on proxy01.007.lan on the nginx machine named in network proxy01.007.lan, I finish to 007.lan vhost

I double checked my conf and I have no default server in https, and if I create default server, I finish on _ server instead of vhost

This happen only for the vhost with same name as machine, I made a little php to return host header and host header is proxy01.007.lan

Let make sure I understand this correctly.

You have a vhost that is named proxy01.007.lan that hosts the domain proxy01.007.lan? The same goes for 007.lan as well?

5

I have 40 vhosts

And one named 007.lan and another with two names proxy01.007.lan proxy02.007.lan

But they names match server host name too, two nginx reverses proxies named proxy01 and proxy02 and dns suffix 007.lan

And when I go on proxy01.007.lan I finish on the first vhost aka 007.lan (or default server if I activate this) instead of vhost
