Another Security Issue? Well I hope not, so maybe someone can clarify this for me.
I had trouble yesterday with a fresh install of 6.1.4 (posted about here: http://www.boonex.com/unity/forums/topic/Installation-can-t-register-Ray.htm )
While looking for a cause, I found that the htaccess file in /ray directory contains:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine off
</IfModule>
I am struggling to see why this would be done - as a host we implement mod_security for a reason, yet this htaccess file seems to me to turn it off - potentially lowering security on the server, even if only for this directory. If there is a need to turn mod_security off for this folder (connected to RMS maybe?) please can someone explain it?
Thank
