Fix SSRF via DNS resolution in URL validation
Modified `validate_folder_url` in `main.py` to resolve domain names using `socket.getaddrinfo`. This prevents SSRF attacks where a malicious domain resolves to a private or restricted IP address. Key changes: - Added `socket` import and DNS resolution logic. - Validates resolved IPs against private, loopback, link-local, reserved, and multicast ranges. - Implemented secure fail-closed behavior for DNS resolution errors (`socket.gaierror`, `OSError`). - Added handling for IPv6 zone identifiers. - Added code comment acknowledging TOCTOU limitations (DNS rebinding). - Updated security journal.

## 2025-01-24 - [SSRF via DNS Resolution]
4444
**Vulnerability:** The `validate_folder_url` function blocked private IP literals but failed to resolve domain names to check their underlying IPs. An attacker could use a domain (e.g., `local.test`) that resolves to a private IP (e.g., `127.0.0.1`) to bypass the SSRF protection and access internal services.

**Learning:** Blocking IP literals is insufficient for SSRF protection. DNS resolution must be performed to verify that a domain does not resolve to a restricted IP address.
