Checklist

  • Have you pulled and found the error with jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:latest docker image?
    • Yes
  • Are you sure you're not using someone else's docker image?
    • Yes
  • Have you searched for similar issues (both open and closed)?
    • Yes

Describe the bug
Synology NAS sitting behind NPM. Basic Auth is enabled and works for main root protection, but logs show external IP's issuing a successful static GET request and accessing images using this call:

[server address]/webapi/entry.cgi?api=SYNO.Core.Synohdpack&version=1&method=getHDIcon&res=24&retina=false&path=webman/3rdparty/DownloadStation/images/download_station_{0}.png

Also:
webman/3rdparty/FileBrowser/images/icon/FileStation_{0}.png
webman/3rdparty/Virtualization/images/VirtualManagement_{0}.png
webman/3rdparty/SynologyPhotos/images/icon/photos_{0}.png

This skips straight past the auth and shows the file, allowing the person sending this to know a Synology NAS is present.

Issuing just [server address]/webapi correctly asks for auth.

Nginx Proxy Manager Version
2.9.18

To Reproduce
Can provide the URL to my server for @jc21 or similar to assess how to resolve.

Expected behavior
Expect auth to be required for any access to the server including this. How to block "SYNO.Core.Synohdpack" request?

Operating System
n/a - But tested on Windows client, Mac client and iOS client and all show the same.

For the moment I've added this to my Advanced "Custom NGINX Config":

location = /webapi {
allow 192.168.1.1/24;
allow 127.0.0.1;
deny all;
}
