Description
This plugin finds .htaccess misconfigurations in the LIMIT configuration parameter. This plugin is based on a paper written by Frame and madjoker from kernelpanik.org. The paper is called : “htaccess: bilbao method exposed” The idea of the technique (and the plugin) is to exploit common misconfigurations of .htaccess files like this one: <LIMIT GET> require valid-user </LIMIT> The configuration only allows authenticated users to perform GET requests, but POST requests (for example) can be performed by any user.
