I have an NGINX server with PHP (let's assume a hostname of http://myserver.com). I have a PHP script that I'm accessing via XHR from a web page on my localhost. I'm using it as a GeoIP server similar to freegeoip.net.
I'm trying to lock down XHR to specific domains.
Here's my config setup:
location ~ \.php$ { try_files $uri =404; fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE $geoip2_data_country_code; fastcgi_param GEOIP_COUNTRY_NAME $geoip2_data_country_name; fastcgi_param GEOIP_COUNTRY_GEONAME_ID $geoip2_data_country_geoname_id; fastcgi_param GEOIP_CITY_NAME $geoip2_data_city_name; fastcgi_param GEOIP_CITY_GEONAME_ID $geoip2_data_city_geoname_id; fastcgi_param GEOIP_CONTINENT_CODE $geoip2_data_city_continent_code; fastcgi_param GEOIP_CONTINENT_GEONAME_ID $geoip2_data_city_continent_geoname_id; fastcgi_param GEOIP_LATITUDE $geoip2_data_city_location_latitude; fastcgi_param GEOIP_LONGITUDE $geoip2_data_city_location_longitude; fastcgi_param GEOIP_TIME_ZONE $geoip2_data_city_location_timezone; fastcgi_param GEOIP_ISP $geoip2_data_city_traits_isp; fastcgi_param GEOIP_IP_ADDRESS $geoip2_data_city_traits_ip_address; set $cors ""; if ($http_origin ~* 'https?://(www\.domain1\.com|www\.domain2\.com)') { set $cors "true"; } if ($cors = 'true') { add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' "$http_origin"; add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials' 'true'; add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' 'GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS'; add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' 'Accept,Authorization,Cache-Control,Content-Type,Pragma,DNT,If-Modified-Since,Keep-Alive,Origin,User-Agent,X-Mx-ReqToken,X-Requested-With'; } if ($request_method = 'OPTIONS') { return 204; } }
The issue I'm having is that when I execute the XHR request, I get the following error:
XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://myserver.com/. The 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header contains multiple values '*, http://localhost', but only one is allowed. Origin 'http://localhost' is therefore not allowed access.
I have only one call to add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' "$http_origin";
in the config file, so why do I have the multiple values? Is there a way I can disable the first call i.e. *
?
