Thanks for such a detailed explanation, it makes much more sense now. So basically if the attacker is a mitm, then the vulnerability is still exploitable.

Is Dave's proposed solution in comment #27 be enough then ? ( check that the origin is HTTPS, if current connection is HTTPS. ). Does NovaProxyRequestHandlerBase have access to that information ?
