2.4.2

Description

Varnish never hits cache, because controller.php is never included.
I have to include file manually in wp-config.php to make Varnish cache work.
After some digging, the auto_prepend_file directive added in vhost seems to be ignored, because Wordfence create a .user.ini file with auto_prepend_file directive.
Any idea to have compatibility?

How to reproduce

Use Wordpress site with Wordfence enabled, and enable Varnish in CloudPanel

Possible Solution

Use another directive?
Add this to nginx config :

location ~ ^/\.user\.ini {
  deny all;
}

Additional Context

No response
