HTTP server used as proxy ?

Hi all,

While doing some pen-testing I noticed that if the IP
address of the web server was used as a proxy from
outside then I would see all the traffic on the inside
of the network (all HTTP request coming from the IP
outside the network) My questions is could this be
used as a blind attack of some sort ? Or any other
attack ?

Just a thought...

Thanks
