directory listing

A Directory Listing vulnerability occurs when a web server is misconfigured, allowing users to view a list of files and directories on the server without authorization. This usually happens when the "directory listing" feature is activated accidentally. The impact of this vulnerability can be very serious because it allows an attacker to:
- View sensitive files such as configuration files, databases, backups, and files containing credentials.
- Maps a website's directory structure which can be used for further attacks such as looking for weak spots or exploitable files.
Remediation of this vulnerability includes:
- Disable directory listing via web server configuration (for example .htaccess on Apache).
- Set proper permission rules on directories and files, so that only authorized users can access them.
- Check server configuration regularly to ensure directory listings are not active without your knowledge.
