From APACHE 2.2 SERVER for Windows Security Technical Implementation Guide
Part of WA00560
The ScriptAlias directive controls which directories the Apache server "sees" as containing scripts. If the directive uses a URL-path name that is different than the actual file system path, the potential exists to expose the script source code.
Locate the Apache httpd.conf file. Open the httpd.conf file with an editor such as Notepad, and search for the following uncommented directive: ScriptAlias If any enabled ScriptAlias directive does not have matching URL-path and file-path/directory-path entries, this is a finding. Example: Not a finding: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ “[Drive Letter]:/[directory path]/cgi-bin/ A finding: ScriptAlias /script-cgi-bin/ “[Drive Letter]:/[directory path]/cgi-bin/
Modify the ScriptAlias directive so the URL-path and file-path/directory-path entries match.
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
.
