    varnishncsa: Add -j to format for JSON · 300ede26
    madhavi.dintakurthy authored
    The new -j flag for varnishncsa allows writing JSON logs in combination
    with -f or -F to specify a custom format. Without -j, the format
    specifiers could be replaced with strings that would make the JSON
    invalid.
    
    One example is headers: without -j, some headers may be replaced with
    C-style \xXX escape sequences, which are not valid JSON. Since request
    headers are controlled by users on the internet, it would be easy for an
    attacker to make a log entry impossible to parse, which might cause it
    to be missed by administrators. Another example is numbers. Without -j,
    format specifiers are replaced with - if the value is empty. A bare - is
    not valid in JSON, so numbers are replaced with null with the -j flag.
    
    In general, -j makes the replacements JSON-compatible for all inputs.
