It seems like Civetweb listens on 0.0.0.0 by default and that doesn't 
seem safe to me.

In most deployments you'll put Apache, Nginx or Varnish in front of RGW 
to do the proper HTTP handling.

I'd say that Civetweb should listen on 127.0.0.1:7480/[::1]:7480 by default.

And make sure it listens on IPv6 by default :-)
