Description

Hello,

I have noticed in my logs a following issue:

My nginx.conf allows:

/1/
/_
/ - redirect to /1/404

The sequence that triggers this problem is "%0a." in the url. After that nginx starts to look for files on the filesystem.

Could you please show some minimal config to reproduce the problem?

Resolution: invalid
Status: newclosed

The problem is in this line:

     rewrite     ^.*$ /1/404 permanent;

It doesn't match unencoded URI as the ^.*$ doesn't match the string with an embedded newline. If you really want to return a redirect for all requests, use a regular expression which matches everything:

     rewrite     ^    /1/404 permanent;

Or, better yet, use the return directive:

    return 301 /1/404;
