+#### Warning: binding inspector to a public IP:port combination is insecure
+
+Binding the inspector to a public IP (including `0.0.0.0`) with an open port is
+insecure, as it allows third-party hosts to connect to the inspector and perform
+a [remote code execution][] attack.
+
+If you specify a host, make sure that at least one of the following is true:
+either the host is not public, or the port is properly firewalled to disallow
+unwanted connections.
+
+**More specifially, `--inspect=0.0.0.0` is insecure if the port (`9229` by
+default) is not firewall-protected.**
+
+See the [debugging security implications][] section for more information.
