Reported here: https://caddy.community/t/copy-header-copying-empty-headers-with-authelia/25885, but I think it has been mentioned elsewhere before as well. Fixes #6610
Basically, because we use
ReplaceKnown
in therequest_header
handler for placeholders, thecopy_header
shortcut forforward_auth
would cause the request headers to be set to the placeholder string itself instead of skipping, when the response was missing that header.The fix is to use a
not vars
matcher to check that the response header placeholder has a non-empty value first.Unfortunately this produces some super verbose JSON config, but the behaviour will be more correct.
