SSRF Localhost Service Probe

Detects SSRF attempts targeting localhost (127.0.0.1, ::1, 0.0.0.0) and common loopback aliases. Localhost-targeted SSRF probes services running on the agent's host that are bound only to the loopback interface: database admin interfaces (Redis 6379, MongoDB 27017, Elasticsearch 9200), internal API gateways, debug endpoints, or developer tooling. These services typically have no authentication because they assume only local access. Also catches IPv6 loopback (::1) and decimal/hex-encoded variants.

攻擊範例（規則會觸發）

以上為真實攻擊 payload 脫敏版本。用於 regression testing。

正常樣本（規則不會觸發）

1. Normal external health check

2. Public domain request

3. Reference to localhost concept without URL scheme
