Netscape FastTrack 'get' |

'get / ' gives a directory listing Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment When the remote web server is issued a request with a lower-case 'get', it will return a directory listing even if a default page such as index.html is present. Example : get / HTTP/1.0 Will return a listing of the root directory. This permits a possible hacker to gain valuable information about the directory structure of the remote host and could reveal the existence of files which are not intended to be visible. Solution : Upgrade your server to the latest version.
