How it was found

#Hello Team, Hope you all are well.

So, I have found a 403 bypass on nginx_status/, this endpoint doesn't give that much info but it had 403, so I was able to bypass to see 200 and see the content.

#Steps To Reproduce:

  1. First try to access https://branded-us4-cloud.acronis.com/nginx_status/, you'll see 403
  2. Now add a header, X-Forwarded-For: 127.0.0.1:80, you'll see 200 response code and you'll see the content
