iTools 7 : Security : How does apple's 2004-12-02 security update affect me?

Question:

How does apple's security update for HFS+ with apache affect me?

Answer:

If you are running iTools 7.3.3 or older you will need to make the following change to your httpd.conf file:

iTools 7 uses Apple's Apache for 1.3, however if you are running 1.3 and if the Apple security update installer replaced the link to our config file with their default config file you may need to make these changes to your httpd-1.3.conf configuration file and re-link it to /etc/httpd/httpd.conf.

If you are running Apache 2 (the default) with iTools 7 then you will need to make the following change to your httpd.conf file.

In the file "/Library/Tenon/WebServer/Configuration/httpd.conf", replace:

Code:


<Files ~ "^.ht">

   Order allow,deny

   Deny from all

</Files>

with:

Code:


<Files ~ "^.([Hh][Tt]|[Dd][Ss]_[Ss])">

   Order allow,deny

   Deny from all

   Satisfy All

</Files>

<Files "rsrc">

   Order allow,deny

   Deny from all

   Satisfy All

</Files>

<DirectoryMatch ".*..namedfork">

   Order allow,deny

   Deny from all

   Satisfy All

</DirectoryMatch>
