Usage & background information

Purpose

Webmasters might be willing to allow people to use server-side-includes which execute ScriptAliased cgi-scripts, but at the same time, they cannot allow server-side includes which can call any program/script.

This patch adds a new configuration Option for conf/access.conf called IncludesYesCGInoCMD which permits the desired behaviour.

New behaviour

If IncludesYesCGInoCMD is used, cgi-scripts can be included in server-side includes, but the less secure cmd variety of includes are rejected.

Configuration
file: access.conf

Add to the Options directive IncludesYesCGInoCMD e.g.
