Summary
--listen-addressCLI option to the dashboard BFFLISTEN_ADDRESSenvironment variablenet.JoinHostPortto construct the server address safelyWhy
The BFF currently always listens on all interfaces because it constructs its address as
:<port>. Local single-user deployments need to bind explicitly to loopback so an unauthenticated development dashboard is not exposed to the LAN.The default remains unchanged: an unset listen address still binds on all interfaces. Existing deployments therefore keep their current behavior, while local deployments can use
--listen-address 127.0.0.1orLISTEN_ADDRESS=127.0.0.1.Validation
