Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.99%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Envoy before 1.16.1 logs an incorrect downstream address because it considers only the directly connected peer, not the information in the proxy protocol header. This affects situations with tcp-proxy as the network filter (not HTTP filters).
