Looks like your installation is vulnerable to CVE-2016-1247
(bug #605008) because nginx user is able to create files in

Also ensure that no other log directory used by any of your

used by nginx can be abused to escalate privileges!

This nginx installation comes with a mitigation for the HTTPoxy
vulnerability for FastCGI, SCGI and uWSGI applications by setting
the HTTP_PROXY parameter to an empty string per default when you
are sourcing one of the default

  - 'fastcgi_params' or 'fastcgi.conf'
  - 'scgi_params'
  - 'uwsgi_params'

files in your server block(s).

If this is causing any problems for you make sure that you are sourcing the
default parameters _before_ you set your own values.
If you are relying on user-supplied proxy values you have to remove the
correlating lines from the file(s) mentioned above.
