>             Project: James Server
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: webadmin
>            Reporter: Benoit Tellier
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 3.7.0
>
>          Time Spent: 10m
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> By default the WebAdmin server is activated, listens on all addresses without 
> JWT security activated by default. This of course represents an open door for 
> unaware users, failing to setup decent firewalling.
> There is a `host` option, set to localhost by default, that can provide a 
> false sens of safety - however this is not applied.
> The proposal here is:
>  - To use the host option to limit interfaces the webadmin server listens on
>  - Ship a sample configuration listening on localhost thus preventing 
> external use
>  - Ship 0.0.0.0 for docker as port exposure is required (we can expect the 
> admin to know what he is doing)
