With IPv6 addressing localhost is resolved as 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 so it should be fine to access my local portal as http://[0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1]:8080 (this is translated as http://[::1]:8080) but I get HTTP Status 500 as ValidHostNameFilter throws:
The root cause is that ValidHostNameFilter uses Validator.isHostName(serverName) and isHostName validates hostnames that contains only digits, characters, dash or period but not colon nor open and close bracket.
