can access django admin through nginx port 80 but not other ports-CodePudding

I can access Django admin by redirecting traffic from nginx port 80 to django port 8000. However, when I change nginx listen port to 81 I received, after signing in Django admin

Forbidden (403)
CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.

nginx.conf

server {
  listen 81;
  server_name localhost;

  location = /favicon.ico {access_log off;log_not_found off;}

  location /static/ {
    include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    alias /static/;
  }

  location / {
    proxy_pass http://backend:8000;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
  }
}

docker-compose file

  backend:

I have changed BACKEND_DJANGO_PORT=81. I tried adding CORS_ALLOW_ALL_ORIGINS=True and CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=["http://backend_nginx:81"] but it doesn't help

Edit: I tried chaning ports of backend_nginx to different values and I realized that the host port must be on port 80, nginx port doesn't matter.

CodePudding user response：

Since Django 4.0, origin checking is added in CSRF middleware as mentioned here https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/ref/csrf/.

So, if the request generated from a specific domain doesn't match with any trusted origins, it raises Forbidden (403) CSRF verification failed.

In your case, you need to set following in settings.py (I assume you are running this locally)

CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS = ["http://localhost:81"]

Now the question arises why it works for 80 port without setting CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS, I assume the default 80 port is always trusted, however I can't find any documentation of it.
