Validate remote host
Set the property to true to prevent bad actors from using internal port scanning in your network.
If the glide.update_set.remote.check_host system property is not set to the recommended value of true, then the Team Development Remote Instance test feature will allow an internal network port scan by providing positive/negative error messages.
Ensure that the property glide.update_set.remote.check_host is set to true.
Warning: This is a safe harbor property, meaning the value can't be altered once it's changed. It is non-revertible.
