Please make sure you set the correct public facing hostname in `OPENPROJECT_HOST__NAME`. If you don't have a load-balancing or proxying web server in front of your docker container,
you will otherwise be vulnerable to [HOST header injections](https://portswigger.net/web-security/host-header), as the internal server has no way of identifying the correct host name.
you will otherwise be vulnerable to [HOST header injections](https://portswigger.net/web-security/host-header), as the internal server has no way of identifying the correct host name. We strongly recommend you use an external load-balancing or proxying web server for termination of TLS/SSL and general security hardening.

**Note**: Make sure to replace `secret` with a random string. One way to generate one is to run `head /dev/urandom | tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 | head -c 32 ; echo ''` if you are on Linux.
