&lt;strong&gt;Classification:&lt;/strong&gt; Opt-in hardening plus a documentation defect, &lt;strong&gt;not a vulnerability and not a regression&lt;/strong&gt;; no CVE assigned. The underlying weakness is inherited from upstream and its default behaviour is unchanged here
&lt;strong&gt;Affected scope:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;code&gt;aws:SourceIp&lt;/code&gt; policy conditions, the audit log &lt;code&gt;remotehost&lt;/code&gt; field, S3 event notification &lt;code&gt;Host&lt;/code&gt;, and the client shown by &lt;code&gt;mc admin trace&lt;/code&gt; — on any deployment whose S3 API port is reachable without passing through a header-sanitising proxy
&lt;strong&gt;Upstream:&lt;/strong&gt; nothing to file — &lt;code&gt;minio/minio&lt;/code&gt; is archived. Prior art there: &lt;a href="https://github.com/minio/minio/pull/4736"&gt;PR #4736&lt;/a&gt; (2017, the concern raised and half-addressed), &lt;a href="https://github.com/minio/minio/discussions/17878"&gt;discussion #17878&lt;/a&gt; (2023, maintainer marks it working as intended), &lt;a href="https://github.com/minio/minio/pull/20977"&gt;PR #20977&lt;/a&gt; (2025, the partial switch)&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
