Running Nginx on Ubuntu, using the nginx config supplied here: https://github.com/matomo-org/matomo-nginx and no changes to the default matomo config.

After upgrading to 4.0.3, I am unable to log in to matomo receiving the error:

Error: Form security failed. Please reload the form and check that your cookies are enabled. If you use a proxy server, you must configure Matomo to accept the proxy header that forwards the Host header. Also, check that your Referrer header is sent correctly.

It seems a number of users are experiencing this bug after visiting the bugs section of the user forums.
