SV-79131r1_rule The OHS htdocs directory must not contain any default files.

Vulnerability discussion

Default files from the OHS installation should not be part of the htdocs directory. These files are not always patched or supported and may become an attacker vector in the future.

Check content

1. cd $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS/instances/ohs1/htdocs 2. Check for the existence of the OracleHTTPServer12c_files directory (e.g., ls). 3. If there is an OracleHTTPServer12c_files directory exists, this is a finding.

Fix text

1. cd $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/components/OHS/instances/ohs1/htdocs 2. rm –rf OracleHTTPServer12c_files.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
