If you are running Tomcat behind a reverse proxy like Nginx or Apache
(HTTPD), you should be able to restrict access to the /xmlui/metadata/ path
to localhost only.
For Nginx this would look like:
location /xmlui/metadata {
allow 127.0.0.1;
deny all;
}
I'm not sure if anything in DSpace requires public access to
/xmlui/metadata, so test this in development first...
