"Upload to Paperless" action failed when "allow_local_remote_servers" not set

[XobrekX]

Steps to reproduce

1. Install Paperless-NGX behind Reverse Proxy
2. Install Nextcloud behind Reverse Proxy
3. Install Paperless_Integration App and configure it to use paperless url, e.g. https://paperless.my-domain.com

Expected behaviour

I would expect the file to be uploaded to paperless.

Actual behaviour

After clicking on "Upload to paperless" I get an Error with: "Upload to Paperless" action failed.
There is another bigger error in the network console, that might help a little more:

Server configuration

Web server: Nginx

Database: MySQL

PHP version: 8.3

Nextcloud version: 31.01 (also tested with 30.x)

Other information

When setting the value allow_local_remote_servers the upload works just fine, but as I do not want to enable another security risk for my Nextcloud-Instance, I'd prefer to not set this option. I also tried to set the allow_local_remote_servers just for the paperless app, but that did not solve my problem.

I am absolutely sure that nextcloud is able to communicate with my paperless reverse proxy and is able to resolve the DNS-Name.

There is no log entry in the nextcloud.log File, just the things I posted above.
