Description

In hosts/rp1.nix, three reverse proxy locations disable TLS certificate verification:

  • unifi.in.reinitialized.net -> proxy_ssl_verify off
  • pgadmin.in.reinitialized.net -> proxy_ssl_verify off
  • redisadmin.in.reinitialized.net -> proxy_ssl_verify off

Impact

Man-in-the-middle attacks between rp1 and upstream services on the mesh network.

  1. Generate an internal CA for the mesh network
  2. Issue proper TLS certs for internal services
  3. Configure nginx to verify upstream certificates
