Resolved now !
This issue was due to incorrect configuration of nginx reverse proxy.
nginx was not forwarding the http\_host and scheme(http/https) related headers due to which the CMS server was perceiving the host as _ **xibodocker200\_cms-web\_1** _ and scheme as http which led to this malformed/internal URL for file download.
Adding the following settings in nginx revers proxy and a restart after clearing the cache resolved the issue.
```
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
```
