[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Security question - Better description

Chris,

I'm sorry, I really didn't explain the problem well enough.

It is true that if I go to:  http://servername:8090 I see the Solr dashboard with no problem.

However, if I add a subdirectory name at the end ( http://servername:8090/css/ ) or any of the other subdirectory names in the list below (except for WEB-INF or META-INF) I see the directory listing in the browser.  If I try to list the WEB-INF or META-INF subdirectories to the end of the url I get an:  HTTP ERROR 404, Problem accessing /WEB-INF/. Reason:  Not Found

[root at servername webapp]# pwd
/usr/local/as/data/tmp/jetty-0.0.0.0-8090-solr.war-_-any-/webapp

[root at servername webapp]# ls -altr
total 44
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1146 Sep 22  2012 favicon.ico
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4930 Sep 22  2012 admin.html
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jun  1 04:05 WEB-INF
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun  1 04:05 css
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Jun  1 04:05 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jun  1 04:05 img
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jun  1 04:05 js
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun  1 04:05 tpl
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun  1 04:05 META-INF
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun  1 04:05 ..


My goal is to get the browser to stop listing the directory(s).

Thanks again for your help with this.

Rick

Hi Rick,



I think this would be a false positive, since it's the Solr index that runs on port 8090.



However, its strongly recommend that Solr be firewalled off so that the only clients accessing it are your own. That means only allowing access from whatever host your backend, frontend, public, and indexer are running on.

Hello All,



I am running a security scan on our Archivesspace test server and received a notice that I have a 'Browsable web directory'.



I have removed 'Indexes' from the httpd.conf file but the directory is still browsable on http://servername:8090.



Any thoughts on how to stop this from occurring would be appreciated.



Thanks,



Rick
