Problem

Fixes #504. PR #503's numeric-final-label check in the lab-ops-hub container validator (pkgs/lab-ops-hub/container/app.py) used 0[xX][0-9a-fA-F]+, requiring at least one hex digit after the prefix. A bare 0x/0X final label therefore fell through to 'a public DNS name' and was ALLOWed, while the Worker validator refuses every spelling: WHATWG's IPv4-number parser returns 0 for a bare prefix, and the single-label 0x normalises to 0.0.0.0 (non-public).

Reproduced on main d4809cf: example.0x, example.0X, example.0x., 0x, 0X all ALLOW in Python vs BLOCK in TS.

Solution

Allow zero hex digits: 0[xX][0-9a-fA-F]*. A trailing non-hex character (0xg, 0x7fg) still fails the full match and stays a DNS name, matching WHATWG on both sides. Redirect targets inherit via the same function.

Verification

  • New regression test test_refuses_bare_0x_final_label covers the five refused spellings plus the two non-hex controls as accepted.
  • npm test in pkgs/lab-ops-hub: TS 18/18, Python 12/12 pass.
  • Ablation: with only app.py reverted, the new test fails (1 failure); restored, all pass.
  • TS/Python differential probe over 12 inputs (bare-0x class + controls + 0x7f/08) shows full parity post-fix.

Single-repo: lab-ops-hub exists only in developing-today/code.

The numeric-final-label pattern from #502 required at least one hex
digit after a 0x prefix, so a bare 0x/0X final label fell through to
'public DNS name'. WHATWG's IPv4-number parser returns 0 for a bare
prefix (0x alone normalises to 0.0.0.0), and the Worker validator
refuses every spelling. Allow zero hex digits in the pattern; a
trailing non-hex character (0xg, 0x7fg) still fails the full match
and stays a DNS name on both sides.

Fixes #504

P2 Badge Preserve valid public IPv4 forms ending in bare 0x

When a redirect uses an all-numeric host such as http://8.8.8.0x/, WHATWG parses the bare final component as zero and the Worker normalizes and accepts it as public 8.8.8.0. Python's socket.inet_aton does not recognize that spelling, so this new unconditional final-label match instead rejects it, causing the container crawl to return 502 and unnecessarily fall back to the Worker. Distinguish malformed names such as example.0x from valid numeric IPv4 components before rejecting the host.
