Mitigation checklist
- To mitigate this flaw, block direct HTTP requests to the internal WebDAV state directory, or disable the mod_dav_fs module if WebDAV functionality is not required. 1. Block access to the .DAV directory: Create or edit a configuration snippet, such as `/etc/httpd/conf.d/block-dav-state.conf`, with the following directive: <LocationMatch "(^|/)\.DAV"> Require all denied </LocationMatch> 2. Alternatively, disable the module if WebDAV is not used: Comment out the following line in `/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-dav.conf`: # LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so 3. Apply changes: Verify the configuration syntax: # apachectl configtest Reload the service: # systemctl reload httpd Warning: Reloading or restarting httpd will impact active network connections. Ensure configuration syntax is validated before reloading to avoid service interruption. Disabling mod_dav_fs will stop all WebDAV filesystem storage operations.
