So I need to make sure that the url-path is set to the file path from a httpd.conf file directive path.



So I have a stig and It states If the directive uses a URL-path name that is different than the actual file system path, the potential exists to expose the script source code.



The path in the conf file is shown through the ScriptAlias directive:



ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/"


So theres a /cgi-bin/ and then there is a "/var/www/cgi-bin/"



How would I set the url-path to the file path or directory path?



I was thinking maybe theres a bash script that can extract both the /cgi-bin/ and the "/var/www/cgi-bin/" and set them equal to ensure that the url-path is set to the file or directory path.



Or is there another way of doing this through shell or ansible?






bash shell apache-httpd ansible

    I'm not quite sure what it is you're talking about. What URL path and what file path? The ScriptAlias directive says that when a client accesses something as /cgi-bin/, the server will access the corresponding CGI program under its /var/www/cgi-bin directory.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
