🛡️ Sentinel: [HIGH] Fix SSRF in integrations connection test

Adds validation using `is_private_ip()` for user-provided hosts in `_test_imap_connection` and `_test_s3_connection` to prevent Server-Side Request Forgery vulnerabilities.

**Vulnerability:** The `is_private_ip` function in `app/utils/network.py` failed open (returned `False`) when a hostname could not be resolved (`socket.gaierror`).
**Learning:** This fail-open pattern was originally added to allow external domains in tests, but in production, it created a severe SSRF risk. An attacker could bypass SSRF protections by providing a URL that fails to resolve during the security check but resolves later (DNS rebinding), or by exploiting internal routing behaviors via unresolvable addresses.
**Prevention:** Always fail securely in network authorization functions. If a domain cannot be resolved to verify its safety, the request must be blocked (`return True` / default-deny). Tests should mock DNS resolution correctly instead of compromising production security logic.
## 2026-03-26 - SSRF in Integration Connection Tests
**Vulnerability:** The `_test_imap_connection` and `_test_s3_connection` functions in `app/api/integrations.py` did not validate user-provided `host` and `endpoint_url` variables against `is_private_ip()`. This allowed an attacker to test the presence of internal IMAP servers or direct S3 SDK API calls to internal infrastructure via SSRF.
**Learning:** Any time a new generic connection or integration test is added, SSRF validation may be forgotten if the core network utility (`is_private_ip`) is not systematically applied to all outbound network operations, regardless of the protocol (e.g., IMAP, S3).
**Prevention:** Establish a pattern where any user-configurable host or endpoint URL is immediately passed through the centralized `is_private_ip` validation function before any network call or third-party client initialization.
