Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Apache: Exposure of protected directories

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment
The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200409-33

require that certain conditions (client host, client authentication, etc)
be met before access to a certain directory is granted, could permit the
exposure of protected directories to unauthorized clients.

Impact

Directories containing protected data could be exposed to all visitors to
the webserver.

Workaround
