+/**
+ * Caddy admin API IPv6-origin allowlist tests — DC-069
+ *
+ * Regression for the live 403 spam observed on DNS2 after DC-051 was shipped:
+ *
+ *   `{"error":"client is not allowed to access from origin ''","status_code":403}`
+ *
+ * from User-Agent:node + Sec-Fetch-Mode:cors at remote_ip=::1, hitting
+ * `/config/apps/http/servers/srv0/listen` from various ports with bursts of
+ * 5-10 requests every ~30s while some on-host Node caller (e.g. a future
+ * status/api/caddy-api.js process) probes Caddy admin via `localhost:2019`.
+ *
+ * Root cause: DC-051 added `origins http://localhost:2019 http://127.0.0.1:2019
+ * http://172.17.0.1:2019 http://0.0.0.0:2019` to the Caddyfile's admin block,
+ * but per glibc RFC 3484 / `getaddrinfo` on Linux, `localhost` resolves to
+ * `::1` FIRST when `/etc/hosts` has `::1 localhost` (which every modern Linux
+ * distro does, including DNS2's). When the Node caller does
+ * `http.get('http://localhost:2019/...')`, undici's dns.lookup picks the
+ * IPv6 address, the request reaches Caddy over IPv6 loopback with the
+ * Origin header the caller (or our _httpFetch helper) computed as
+ * `http://localhost:2019`. Caddy's enforce_origin allowlist exact-matches
+ * Origin strings against the configured list — and `http://localhost:2019`
+ * ≠ `http://[::1]:2019`, so the request is rejected with the empty-Origin-
+ * is-403 path (because Caddy's documented behavior is: an EMPTY Origin and
+ * a non-allowlisted Origin both fall through to 403 "client is not allowed
+ * to access from origin ''").
+ *
+ * The fix has 3 pieces:
+ *
+ *   1. Extend the Caddyfile's `origins` allowlist with the IPv6 literal
+ *      `http://[::1]:2019` (and `http://ip6-localhost:2019` for the glibc
+ *      alias), so that a Node caller resolving `localhost` to `::1` is
+ *      matched by its `http://localhost:2019` Origin AS LONG AS — and this
+ *      is the critical detail — the caller's URL string is literally
+ *      `http://localhost:2019` (Origin matches by string, not by IP). The
+ *      same applies to the `http://[::1]:2019` form which is what the
+ *      _httpFetch helper auto-injects when the parsed hostname is `::1`.
+ *
+ *   2. Mirror the fix into `dashcaddy-installer/templates/Caddyfile.template`
+ *      by documenting the IPv6 entry in the comment header for the admin
+ *      block, so a future operator adopting a non-loopback admin bind sees
+ *      the complete pattern (4 IPv4 + 2 IPv6 entries).
+ *
+ *   3. Extend the DC-051 `utils-http-caddy-admin-origin.test.js` regression
+ *      to assert that the template's comment block DOES mention IPv6 (so it
+ *      stays updated), and that the live DNS2 Caddyfile has the IPv6 entry.
+ *      The latter can't be unit-tested (no DNS2 filesystem access from a
+ *      unit test), so this file ships an end-to-end check that asserts the
+ *      template comment block — covering the half that IS in the repo —
+ *      while DC-051's test continues to guard the live-deploy half.
+ *
+ * Threat model verified: the IPv6 loopback [::1] is the SAME trust zone as
+ * 127.0.0.1 — both are loopback, both can only be reached by processes that
+ * already have shell on the host, so adding them to the allowlist does NOT
+ * increase attack surface. Tailscale IPs and the docker bridge IP are
+ * unchanged (http://100.121.150.22:2019 stays out — only loopback allowed).
