+Remote Host Validation
+----------------------
+
+Nextcloud can help validating a remote host so that no internal infrastructure is contacted by user-provided host names or IPs. The validator ``\OCP\Security\IRemoteHostValidator`` can be :ref:`injected<dependency-injection>` into any app class:
+
+.. code-block:: php
+
+    <?php
+
+    use OCP\Security\IRemoteHostValidator;
+
+    class MyRemoteServerIntegration {
+        private IRemoteHostValidator $hostValidator;
+
+        public function __construct(IRemoteHostValidator $hostValidator) {
+            $this->hostValidator = $hostValidator;
+        }
+
+        public function contactRemoteServer(string $hostname): void {
+            if (!$this->hostValidator->isValid($hostname)) {
+                // ABORT
+            }
+
+            // Contact the server
+        }
+    }
+
+.. note:: Nextcloud's HTTP clients obtained from ``\OCP\Http\Client\IClientService`` have this validation built in so you don't have to check hosts of HTTP requests as long as you use this provided abstraction.
