Alex Shnitman 7082858237 fix: judge the IPv4 tunnelled inside IPv6 transition addresses
The SSRF guard classified addresses with ipaddress.is_global, which looks only
at the outer address. An IPv6 form that carries an IPv4 address at a fixed
offset therefore passed a check the bare address would have failed: the NAT64
well-known prefix 64:ff9b::/96 sits in the 2000::/3 global unicast range, so
64:ff9b::a9fe:a9fe was accepted while 169.254.169.254 was refused. The
deprecated IPv4-compatible form ::/96 has the same property. Both the ingress
validator and the connect-time socket guard classified through the same helper,
so both were affected.

Judge every address a verdict has to account for: the outer address plus any
IPv4 it tunnels, allowed only when all of them are global. Unwrapping this way
can only tighten the verdict, which matters for 6to4 and Teredo — Python
already rejects 2002::/16 and 2001::/32 wholesale, and replacing the outer
address with its payload would have turned 2002:0808:0808:: from blocked into
allowed. Reaching an internal service this way additionally requires NAT64
routing on the host network, which the attacker does not control.
