[Modsecurity] Incomplete check in id:390080

Hi all!

Today I noticed critical modsecurity errors in my apache log from rule id
390080 ("Checking for valid X-Forwarded header", jitp.conf), caused by our own
web proxy.

It looks like the regexp in this rule checks only for one entry in
X-Forwarded-For, but I use proxy chaining where each web proxy in the chain
attaches its own entry to this header field, eg.

   X-Forwarded-For: unknown, 1.2.3.4


Regards,
Peter
