P1: validate_redirect_uri accepts http:// for any host, not just loopback. The docstring promises RFC 9700 HTTPS enforcement with loopback exception, but only non-HTTP(S) schemes are rejected — http://evil.com/cb passes. This exposes authorization codes to interception over plain HTTP for non-loopback redirect URIs.
