"According to its Server response header, the installed version of nginx
is 1.1.x, greater than or equal to 1.1.4, or 1.2.x prior to 1.2.9. It
is, therefore, affected by a memory disclosure vulnerability in
'ngx_http_proxy_module.c' when 'proxy_pass' to untrusted upstream
servers is used. 

By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker may be able to gain
access to worker process memory or trigger a denial of service
condition.");
