"""Describe why *hostname* is a destination we refuse to fetch, or None to allow it.
Camera URLs are user-supplied and reach the network — over aiohttp for the
HTTP types, and as an ``ffmpeg -i`` argument for RTSP — so this is where the
SSRF boundary sits. LAN addresses are deliberately allowed: cameras live on
the same network as Bambuddy, and blocking RFC-1918 would remove the feature
rather than protect it. What is left to refuse is the host talking to
itself, the unspecified address, link-local (which is where the cloud
metadata endpoint lives), and the metadata hostnames.
IP literals are classified with ``ipaddress`` rather than compared against a
list of spellings, because 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 2130706433, 0177.0.0.1,
127.1 and ::ffff:127.0.0.1 all arrive at loopback and a list of strings only
ever catches whichever one someone thought to write down. ``inet_aton``
comes first because it accepts the legacy octal, decimal and short forms
that ``ip_address`` rejects — the C resolvers behind aiohttp and ffmpeg
accept them, so refusing to understand them here would only mean not seeing
where the request is actually going.

"""The RTSP camera paths must not become a request generator for arbitrary hosts.
`_sanitize_camera_url` is the SSRF boundary for user-configured camera URLs. It
was applied to the MJPEG and snapshot paths but not to the two RTSP ones, which
handed the URL to `ffmpeg -i` unchecked — and ffmpeg's `-i` speaks http, tcp,
file and everything else it was built with, so `camera_type=rtsp` was a way to
name any destination and any protocol.
Wiring the guard in is only half of it. The guard rebuilt URLs from
`parsed.hostname`, which drops credentials and unbrackets IPv6 literals, and it
recognised loopback by comparing against four spellings of it. So these tests
pin three things at once: the RTSP paths refuse what they should, the guard
recognises a destination however it is written, and a real camera — which
usually means an authenticated one — still works.
