Protect your subdirectoriesWithout an index.php or index.htm in your subdirectories, a user would be able to see all the files in your directory which can be a big security flaw. The way I plug this hole is to have index.php as my directory index. Then I make sure every directory on my site that doesn't already have an index.php has the file index.php with the following code:
<?php
header("Location: http://www.redirecturl.com/");
?>
|
Obviously I use the domain of my site in the place of redirecturl.com. This has the effect of redirecting anyone to the website homepage if they try peeking in my subdirectories.
