Apache 1.3.4 configuration for cgi-bin/script directory specification

Apache 1.3.4 configuration for cgi-bin/script directory specification

Post by Prit » Thu, 25 Mar 1999 04:00:00



I would like to configure  my Apache 1.3.4 server,  such that the cgi-bin
under UserDir ( ie ~username/public_html) are script directories.
Does any one have inputs on how this can be achieved.

Thanks

Priti

Following the instructions in the documentation is usually efficacious.

Enabling user CGI scripts is a serious step to take.  If you aren't
ready to follow the documentation, nor even to show how far you got and
at what point you had a problem, then maybe you aren't serious enough?

 
 
 

1. /cgi-bin/phf /cgi-bin/test-cgi /cgi-bin/handler

I've been seeing a number of attacks of this sort recently
from various sites in the http logs.  The time correlation
between the logs on various hosts suggests that the attacker
was scanning sequentially upward in IP addresses.  Since all
tcp and udp packets to ports below 1024 except for http,
smtp, and ident are filtered out for most, including the
attacking, sites, I'm not seeing anything else in the logs.

209.61.73.47 - - [04/Jul/1998:07:19:27 -0500] "GET /cgi-bin/phf" 404 -
209.61.73.47 - - [04/Jul/1998:07:19:28 -0500] "GET /cgi-bin/test-cgi" 404 -
209.61.73.47 - - [04/Jul/1998:07:19:28 -0500] "GET /cgi-bin/handler" 404 -

Is this a signature of some known attackware?  If so, what
other attacks accompany these http probes?
