#20303 closed Bug (duplicate)

HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST can be multi-valued with USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST

Description

Hello! It turns out HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST can be multi-valued and separated with commas. This makes USE_X_FORWARDED_HOST + ALLOWED_HOSTS/get_host() unhappy, as it slurps the whole string into host.

The attached patch (and I'd appreciate any tips on how to do this as I don't really know how to submit patches) looks for a comma in HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST and pulls the first value into host.

Simple patch to request.py. Probably didn't build this properly

Thank you very much! The submitted middleware on the other ticket is very helpful, and I appreciate the insight into what goes into core Django!
