A large client has a secure website where they assemble and create presentations consisting of a single Table of Contents page with many pdf's attached to it. They use the site to make presentations. This is a big client, a rich client, and they needed a way to guarantee they would be able to access the site. So I got this request:

Can you make an offline version of the Page that is always updated and available for download so we can download the offline version and present using that in case the website is down or more often, in case Internet Access is unavailable?

Update: I used COOKIE based authentication to secure this clients site, so that only logged in users can see anything at all, so how do I enable the curl requests to authenticate as well using the COOKIE of the requesting user in each request made by curl? Just add the users HTTP_COOKIE to the headers array used by curl like so:

array(
...
"Cookie: {$_SERVER['HTTP_COOKIE']}"
)

That now means the scraped version of the page is an exact duplicate that the user is looking at. Very sweet!

I can GET anything

So, here's what I hacked together last night, that is being used today. It's essentially 2 files.

1. A php file that scrapes uses curl to scrape all the urls for the page (favicon, css, images, pdfs, etc..)
2. A simple bash shell script acting as a cgi that creates a zip file of all the urls, and a self-extracting exe file for those without a winzip tool

The PHP File

This is a simple script that is given 2 parameters:

1. The url to scrape
2. The type of download to return

scrapeit.php

Creating SFX Archives

The best way is 7z, but I couldn't get p7zip's sfx module to work and didn't have time to compile it. Instead I just used the stub available here: curl -O -L ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/win32/unz552xn.exe which works great but no customization like password, icons, etc.. oh well.

Implementation

Simple, just create a link to the php file with the url and type parameters. /cgi-bin/php/scrapeit.php?url=http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/htaccess.html&type=exe or if you integrate into wordpress like I did you can add this to your header or admin_bar and use the get_permalink() for the url arg.

Lock It Down

This was used on a private site so what I did was add some code to the scrapeit.php file that just copied the HTTP_COOKIE value sent by the requesting user and sent that as part of the request in the fsockopen request. That means only logged in users can do this, and furthermore, if a user doesn't have access to a page and tries to use this to circumvent, they can't. And also htaccess was used to limit the scripts to only allow the ip's running the server to make connections.

Conclusion

What can't be done with linux, bash, http, php, and a little server-side finesse? My clients are very happy, and I had some fun!

Creating an Offline Version of Page originally appeared on AskApache.com

I was going through some backups from years ago, and ran:

locate .htaccess | xargs -I'{}' cat '{}' >> master-htaccesser.txt

My site is named after reading source code because that is what helps me the most when I'm trying to learn something unusually difficult. Just like functions and aliases, it is very helpful to have cheatsheets for common commands.. not much is better than real-world examples. Unfortunately because this was compiled from hundreds of htaccess files on multiple hosts and platforms, and due to the concatenation, it's not organized.

Normally I would not publish something like this, who knows how much unreleased tricks I forgot about.. but in order to say thanks to all those working for open-source, the FSF, and to all those who don't steal content, and to all the incredible authors who shared with me (I twitter most of what I find, and follow my favs), here ya go..

ATTN: Please let me know if this is total junk or not, this is around 1/500th of my master-htaccesser.txt file.. and I'd be happy to post more if it helps..

# Action lets you define media types that will execute a script whenever

# Format: Action media/type /cgi-script/location
# Format: Action handler-name /cgi-script/location

# AddHandler allows you to map certain file extensions to "handlers":
# actions unrelated to filetype. These can be either built into the server

# To use CGI scripts outside of ScriptAliased directories:

# DefaultType: the default MIME type the server will use for a document
# if it cannot otherwise determine one, such as from filename extensions.
# If your server contains mostly text or HTML documents, "text/plain" is
# a good value.  If most of your content is binary, such as applications

# Pass: Allows request to continue, further filters could still halt request.
# Allow: Allows matching requests through, will not be tested against other filters.
# Deny: Stops the request outright, returns a HTTP 500 error code by default.
# Status: Used to specify an alternate HTTP error code.
# Redirect: Matching requests are redirected to the provided URL.
# Exec: Allows execution of a local system binary or script.
# Log: Logs request only.
# Nolog: Does not log request.
# Chain: Allows you to create list of filters for more granulated security. All filters must be cleared before action is taken with the final filter.

Passing Parameters to CGI through HTTP Headers

This deserves a note.. this trick lets you bypass so many hosting environment restrictions it's not even funny... like you can run bash as your webserver instead of apache! (kinda...)

### Section 1: Global Environment
#
# The directives in this section affect the overall operation of Apache,
# such as the number of concurrent requests it can handle or where it
# can find its configuration files.
#
#
# TZ: Your address, where problems with the server should be
# e-mailed.  This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
# as error documents.  e.g. admin@your-domain.com
#
SetEnv TZ America/Indianapolis
 
#
# ServerAdmin: Your address, where problems with the server should be
# e-mailed.  This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
# as error documents.  e.g. admin@your-domain.com
#
SetEnv SERVER_ADMIN webmaster@askapache.com
 
#
# Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
# or any combination of:
#   Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
#
# The Options directive is both complicated and important.  Please see
# http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#options
# for more information.
#
Options  +FollowSymLinks -ExecCGI -Indexes -Includes -MultiViews
 
#
# DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory
# is requested.
#
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php /index.php
 
#
# The following lines prevent .htaccess and .htpasswd files from being
# viewed by Web clients.
#
<filesMatch "^\.ht">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
  Satisfy All
</filesMatch>
 
#
# DefaultType: the default MIME type the server will use for a document
# if it cannot otherwise determine one, such as from filename extensions.
# If your server contains mostly text or HTML documents, "text/plain" is
# a good value.  If most of your content is binary, such as applications
# or images, you may want to use "application/octet-stream" instead to
# keep browsers from trying to display binary files as though they are
# text.
#
DefaultType text/html
 
#
# Optionally add a line containing the server version and virtual host
# name to server-generated pages (internal error documents, FTP directory
# listings, mod_status and mod_info output etc., but not CGI generated
# documents or custom error documents).
# Set to "EMail" to also include a mailto: link to the ServerAdmin.
# Set to one of:  On | Off | EMail
#
ServerSignature Off

Actual Htaccess Files from My Server originally appeared on AskApache.com

So my blog as been rather quiet for almost a year now, and very few updates if any have been released for my Password Protection PLugin, my Google 404 Plugin, and definately not for my AskApache CrazyCache plugin, which I will be releasing last... So for all of you who've helped me out by sending me suggestions and notifying me of errors and sticking with it... Just wanted to say sorry about that, and thanks for all the great ideas.. Well, I've been sticking with it as well believe it our not. I manage to get free days once in a while, and then its time to jam.

I've used just about every CMS/Blog/Forum/Trac/Gallery/etc) and really didn't like a lot of the way they coded... I could use php but I didn't KNOW php.. so I've had to learn php also, and it was tough to learn the advanced class usage and all the other language specific (but similar) constructs for php. It was especially difficult (but fun and challenging) to program so as to be compatible with php4 and php5 (Such is WordPress). But I kept at it, and soon you can decide for yourself what to make of it.

I can code in plenty of languages (bash, lua, windows .bat and vbs, ocaml, big fan of all things shell) and can work my way through C and even sorta somewhat with assembly. Assembly is the hardest, by far, I'm into easy and powerful languages like Python, Javascript, perl, php, ruby, and CGI. I've used PHP for a long time to do various things, but never to build software projects like this. Once I noticed WordPress's core .php files and the excellent programming I wanted to try and learn hot to do it. The WordPress code is some of the best I've seen. It appears the way they built it was planned, and not just dreamt up while typing that I can't help but do. Every time I read through the core code I learn a new trick or very nice way to do something. Those guys are really good, and I think WordPress is going to dominate for a long long time.

The Strategy

The Password Protection (passpro) plugin has a lot of complex stuff going on, especially for a newbie to PHP and WordPress like me, so after refactoring the whole thing at least 5 times I decided to modify my approach, and wrote the AskApache Google 404 Plugin as a way to practice on a simpler piece of code, while at the same time providing a plugin of value. Eventually I stopped thinking I could just code the whole thing in one sit-down with a stream-of-consciousness, and had to instead modularize the code and focus in on each part before moving to the next (I go without a plan because its fun, just not the most productive, but again, I'm not a programmer in the scientific sense.).

So I decided I had to really learn how WordPress Plugins work, filters, hooks, actions, and basically comfortability at reverse-engineering code, (Im a beginner for the last time), and so with the upcoming release of the AskApache Google 404 Plugin I have succeeded in making an incredibly stable plugin. That way I only have to worry about what the aapasspro plugin is doing, instead of trying to fit it into a framework.

AskApache Google 404 Upgrade

I think its rather unusual to develop a nice plugin like this 404 handler merely for the purpose of improving upon another plugin, but hey it worked. As of 08/03/2009 14:06PM EST I have about 1 hour left of finishing touches to release this upgrade. But as you cantell by my badly edited posts, I don't have a lot of time to myself. An hour here and there is about it. So it could be up to 2 weeks before I actually have the time to commit the release to the repo. On a sidenote, have you checked out Windows 7 News? I've been contracted to do some technical work for them and thought they had an excellent site.

But keep in mind, the 404 PLugin is just where I practice for the passpro plugin, which truly does have features that no other software like it has ever had. I understand the technology behind this plugin, and know it would really have a great impact on improving the Web (esp. WordPress) for all of us, I've just had to learn how to make it.

AskApache Password Protection

Probably still a couple weeks away, this plugin is the ultimate culmination of apache hackers dreams, at least those on shared servers (who may be interested in learning how to bypass security of said servers).. So this is something I have much too fun with doing what I like to do.. network/protocol-level security. I've examined the source code for many software packages that I use or have used to audit a server's security, and this simple php plugin in most instances can enumerate with accuraccy most of the server's setup in about a minute. The catch (and the file permission problems I had to find a workaround too) is that this software is launched on the server, not remotely against the server.

Some of the software I examined was whiskers, nessus, nmap, hping, mozilla source, wireshark, ncftp, netcat, etc.. The closest comparison to the socket-level class I've hacked together to those is wireshark. Except that wireshark only interprets (captures) the data passing over the wire, while this class does that and in fact sends and receives the data like netcat or nmap. Its really more similar to metasploit, and can easily be used to send hex, binary, ascii, or any type of payload to the remote or local host.

The Upgrades Begin

Well I started working on them a long time ago. Both the Password Protection plugin and the Google 404 plugin needed serious work. And I finally have it all figured out. Essentially I would work on one and finish an upgrade, but I just wasn't happy with it and I wold start all over again, refactoring the code. So as I put the finishing touches on those 2 plugins keep an eye out. They are major upgrades. I was able to meet all the goals I had for them, and came up with a lot of more improvements during the process.One of the main things I needed was a socket-level class to perform all kinds of checks and tests on. I need this also for my crazy cache plugin, which my blog is currently using , and I have a 2 more really nice pplugins I use that also needed access to a network class. I wrote about what I was doing with fsockopen, and I've been improving on that example ever since. I use this class to do some really powerful and exciting stuff, but you'll see it soon enough. As an indication of 'getting it right' for the Password Protection plugin, the plugin will now work on Windows, Apache, IIS, Lighthttpd, and will even work running on a blackberry web server. So now everyone using wordpress can at least get some security()

Many of the the other improvements focus on using the fsockopen class and .htaccess tricks to basically enumerate and discover all the different capabilities of your particular server; That way you can learn about all the features and security that are possible for your specific server, and the securty modules wi8ll be geared for that as well. FINALLY this plugin is going to be stable, and I just cant wait to see how people react when they learn all great capability their Apache-based Server has that they didn't have a clue about. Its amazing in that sense, and hackers will love theh way it works.. but your server admins will love it even more because its entirely 100% focused on helping you to set your site up (if you have Apache) to keep spammers out, to keep virii-serving robots and their log-hogging exploit requests and CPU/Mem robiing 404 errors off of your servers for real. This will have a noticeable affect to whoever is running the server. As you can tell.. I am pumped!

Apache can only be influenced by the main server configs and by .htaccess files. Not by php, not by perl, and the main configs are almost never accessible to the masses. But .htaccess files are. And many hosting providers allow and enable .htaccess files, a configuration file for your web server. The advanced features and capabilities of Apache were out of reach for most of us, it just wasn't possible to enumerate or access, and most hosting providers are infamous for their lack of .htaccess (customer) support. This plugin goes around those problems to give the power back to the people.

Here are a few examples of the capabilities of this plugin, some of which I believe no other software can do.. (Open source free to copy!).

1. Current Version of Apache (Down to the API Version)
2. List of ALL Modules currently enabled by Apache (Such as Mod_Rewrite)
3. List of ALL Directives enabled by EACH enabled Module.
4. Enumerate .htaccess Overrides, Context Permissions
5. Test for any builtin Handlers (like the status handler screenshot)
6. Configure SSI (http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/advanced-htaccess-ssi.html#htaccess-ssi-security)

March 1, 2009
I would focus on the method that WordPress uses. The code they have now (2.8 bleeding-edge) still isn't where it needs to be, but this is some difficult stuff and they have a brilliant start, it'll work.. just a question of when.

The main issue with the password protection plugin working for some people and not others is due to file permission configurations. The plugin attempts to write/modify files in your blog's root directory.

November 05, 2008
To make a long story short, I downloaded each major release of the apache httpd source code starting at version 1.3.0 and finishing with version 2.2.11, I then compiled each version and built a HTTPD from source for all these apache versions.

• 1.3.0
• 1.3.1
• 1.3.11
• 1.3.12
• 1.3.14
• 1.3.17
• 1.3.19
• 1.3.2
• 1.3.20
• 1.3.22
• 1.3.23
• 1.3.24
• 1.3.27
• 1.3.28

• 1.3.29
• 1.3.3
• 1.3.31
• 1.3.32
• 1.3.33
• 1.3.34
• 1.3.35
• 1.3.36
• 1.3.37
• 1.3.39
• 1.3.4
• 1.3.41
• 1.3.6
• 1.3.9

• 2.0.35
• 2.0.36
• 2.0.39
• 2.0.40
• 2.0.42
• 2.0.43
• 2.0.44
• 2.0.45
• 2.0.46
• 2.0.47
• 2.0.48
• 2.0.49
• 2.0.50
• 2.0.51

• 2.0.52
• 2.0.53
• 2.0.54
• 2.0.55
• 2.0.58
• 2.0.59
• 2.0.61
• 2.0.63
• 2.1.3-beta
• 2.1.6-alpha
• 2.1.7-beta
• 2.1.8-beta
• 2.1.9-beta

• 2.2.0
• 2.2.10
• 2.2.2
• 2.2.3
• 2.2.4
• 2.2.6
• 2.2.8
• 2.2.9
• 2.2.10
• 2.2.11

Then I went through each version and determined the compatible modules for that version, and I'm pretty confident that I was also able to find each and every directive allowed by the compatible modules for that version (including core directives). See .htaccess directive list. Basically I can now test a server using a variety of methods and determine almost 100% accurately what version of Apache (down to the API) is running, what modules (and versions) are enabled, and each and every directive that is allowed or disallowed for that version. So this is so awesome because now we can enable all sorts of additional security features.

Htaccess enabled Modules

Here are most of the modules that come with Apache. Each one can have new commands that can be used in .htaccess file scopes.

mod_actions, mod_alias, mod_asis, mod_auth_basic, mod_auth_digest, mod_authn_anon, mod_authn_dbd, mod_authn_dbm, mod_authn_default, mod_authn_file, mod_authz_dbm, mod_authz_default, mod_authz_groupfile, mod_authz_host, mod_authz_owner, mod_authz_user, mod_autoindex, mod_cache, mod_cern_meta, mod_cgi, mod_dav, mod_dav_fs, mod_dbd, mod_deflate, mod_dir, mod_disk_cache, mod_dumpio, mod_env, mod_expires, mod_ext_filter, mod_file_cache, mod_filter, mod_headers, mod_ident, mod_imagemap, mod_include, mod_info, mod_log_config, mod_log_forensic, mod_logio, mod_mem_cache, mod_mime, mod_mime_magic, mod_negotiation, mod_proxy, mod_proxy_ajp, mod_proxy_balancer, mod_proxy_connect, mod_proxy_ftp, mod_proxy_http, mod_rewrite, mod_setenvif, mod_speling, mod_ssl, mod_status, mod_substitute, mod_unique_id, mod_userdir, mod_usertrack, mod_version, mod_vhost_alias

Debugging HTTP protocol

Check this out! I'm particularly happy about this feature, which outputs an exact trace of any requests made by the plugin (such as during the testing phase) by saving the actual raw data sent out on the wire using fsockopen, RX and TX. This is useful for a number of reasons, viewing your headers, finding Redirect Loops, testing RewriteRules, and following the request hop-by-hop for debugging. The below example shows 2 requests for 2 URIs. The first URI is protected using Digest Authentication, the 2nd shows Basic.

An AskApache Plugin Upgrade to Rule them All originally appeared on AskApache.com

I wanted to address why the update to the AskApache Password Protection plugin didn't happen pre-2009 as I had hoped.. Mostly due to my job but I thought I could at least fill you in. Oh and this is going to get very boring very fast, unless you're ready to rumble in the zone.

File Permissions!

Here's a detailed look at the Apache Security Model, from ApacheSecurity.net, a blog maintained by Ivan Ristic, the author of ModSecurity.

The problem is happening because when you login to your FTP server with your username and password, the files that you upload are then  owned by that username and password, which is almost always an actual user account on the server system.  But the Apache Server is an executable file itself, and it is not owned by your FTP username, for security reasons.  Apache controls the PHP Interpreter, which parses and executes the WordPress and plugin files as a separate user. ( SuEXEC, Apache Security Tips )

Process Owner vs. File Owner

wp-admin/includes/file.php

Ok so this function get_filesystem_method is a brilliant bit of code that would've been beyond my current PHP skills to come up with. It determines which if any of the following methods can be used to modify files on your server from within WordPress, which is exactly what the new version of the passpro plugin needs to use. The first test simply creates a file from within php using wp_tempnam, a function that attempts to locate and write to a temporary location on your server that has the best chance of having write access. If it is successfully created (this code assumes that it will be, something they need to fix) then the fileowner (uses stat internally) of the temp file just created is compared to the owner of the php script... Normally this works and then the plugin woks too, but on some hosts the script is running as a separate user than that of the file which means you can't directly access the local file system. That is what is occurring for most of you who experience permission problems while testing the plugin. There are thousands of caveats for each little part depending on your php version, php setup, server setup, server version, which Server API you are using, the type of SAPI being used, and on and on..

function get_filesystem_method($args = array()) {
  $method = false;
  if( function_exists('getmyuid') && function_exists('fileowner') ){
    $temp_file = wp_tempnam();
    if ( getmyuid() == fileowner($temp_file) ) $method = 'direct';
    unlink($temp_file);
  }
  if ( ! $method && isset($args['connection_type']) && 'ssh' == $args['connection_type'] && extension_loaded('ssh2') )
          $method = 'ssh2';
  if ( ! $method && extension_loaded('ftp') )
          $method = 'ftpext';
  if ( ! $method && ( extension_loaded('sockets') || function_exists('fsockopen') ) )
          $method = 'ftpsockets'; //Sockets: Socket extension; PHP Mode: FSockopen / fwrite / fread
  return apply_filters('filesystem_method', $method);
}

Enumerating Permissions can be Annoying

This was part of some tests I did to see what kind of access I had with the very helpful posix functions which are very accurate as well since they were designed for a system with file permissions, ie. not Win. Don't ask me how because I won't tell you, but on one of the hosts I was testing on that did not allow direct access I was able to get the Apache server running as dhapache to erroneously write a file into my users blog directory. This is a big security no-no and I now have my .htaccess file written into the blog directory where it should go, but instead of my php script's user having write access to the file so I can modify it, its owned by dhapache! Because the file is owned by dhapache I shouldn't even be allowed to know it exists, but there it is. So the next step was to try and take ownership of the .htaccess file so that I could modify it. I tried and tried but was unsuccessful, I couldn't modify it so that was another dead end. Actually it took me awhile to figure out how to remove the file from my directory. Being that it was owned by dhapache I couldn't delete or modify it using my php process or even through ftp/ssh! Sysadmins regularly run find commands that search the servers for any files owned by dhapache that should not be there as this is a big red flag that someone has found a way to manipulate dhapache which could potentially lead to modifying dhapche-owned server config files.. Luckily I was able to delete it by basically running the hack again to overwrite the file.

Fsockopen Payload Class

Here's what I had several versions ago.. Just sticking it up here in case anyone is curious, one cool thing this version starts to incorporate is being able to send direct data payloads across the socket so it can be used like the metasploit framework to send payloads of exploits, but of course we're using it to mimick other protocols like ftp, which can be setup by feeding hex into the socket direct from a real ftp client, and piping the output. Keep in mind that this is my first time using php classes, so the learning curve has been incredible...

SetEnvIf and SetEnvIfNoCase are really useful directives supplied by the mod_setenvif module that allow you to conditionally set environment variables accessible by scripts and apache based on the value of HTTP Headers, Other Variables, and Request information.

For debugging, you may want to use my server environment variable debugging script

• Unique mod_setenvif Variables
• Populates HTTP_MY_ Variables with mod_setenvif variable values
• Set REMOTE_HOST to HTTP_HOST
• Allows only if HOST Header is present in request
• Add values from HTTP Headers
• Set the REDIRECT_STATUS for Interpreter Security

Unique mod_setenvif Variables

These can be used for attribute.

Remote_Host

the hostname (if available) of the client making the request - crawl-66-249-70-24.googlebot.com

Remote_Addr

IP address of the client making the request - 66.249.70.24

Server_Addr

IP address of the server on which the request was received - 208.113.183.103

Request_Method

name of the method being used - GET

Request_Protocol

name and version of the protocol with which the request was made - HTTP/1.1

Request_URI

the resource requested on the HTTP request line -- generally the portion of the URL following the scheme and host portion without the query string - /robots.txt

Syntax:

SetEnvIf attribute regex [!]env-variable[=value] [[!]env-variable[=value]] ...

Populates HTTP_MY_ Variables with mod_setenvif variable values

SetEnvIfNoCase Remote_Host "(.*)" HTTP_MY_REMOTE_HOST=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase Remote_Addr "(.*)" HTTP_MY_REMOTE_ADDR=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase Server_Addr "(.*)" HTTP_MY_SERVER_ADDR=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_Method "(.*)" HTTP_MY_REQUEST_METHOD=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_Protocol "(.*)" HTTP_MY_REQUEST_PROTOCOL=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI "(.*)" HTTP_MY_REQUEST_URI=$1

Set REMOTE_HOST to HTTP_HOST

Sets REMOTE_HOST to www.askapache.com if Remote_Addr=208.113.183.103. This can be useful if your server doesn't automatically do a reverse lookup on a remote address, so this way you can tell if the request was internal/from your server.

SetEnvIf Remote_Addr 208\.113\.183\.103 REMOTE_HOST=www.askapache.com

Allows only if HOST Header is present in request

SetEnvIfNoCase ^HOST$ .+ HTTP_MY_HAS_HOST
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from All
Allow from env=HTTP_MY_HAS_HOST

or

SetEnvIfNoCase Host .+ HTTP_MY_HAS_HOST
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from All
Allow from env=HTTP_MY_HAS_HOST

Add values from HTTP Headers

SetEnvIfNoCase ^If-Modified-Since$ "(.+)" HTTP_IF_MODIFIED_SINCE=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase ^If-None-Match$ "(.+)" HTTP_IF_NONE_MATCH=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase ^Cache-Control$ "(.+)" HTTP_CACHE_CONTROL=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase ^Connection$ "(.+)" HTTP_CONNECTION=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase ^Keep-Alive$ "(.+)" HTTP_KEEP_ALIVE=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase ^Authorization$ "(.+)" HTTP_AUTHORIZATION=$1
SetEnvIfNoCase ^Cookie$ "(.+)" HTTP_MY_COOKIE=$1

Set the REDIRECT_STATUS for Interpreter Security

This is useful in disallowing direct access to interpreters like shell scripts, cgi scripts, and other interpreters. Only works this way if you have a static IP for your server. So the only way to access these files is by instructing the server itself to request the file, using an Action directive or by requesting the file through a .php or other script using curl or wget, or something like fsockopen.

<filesMatch "\.(cgi|sh|pl)$">
SetEnvIfNoCase Remote_Addr 208\.113\.183\.103 REDIRECT_STATUS
 
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from All
Allow from env=REDIRECT_STATUS
</filesMatch>

Block Bad Bots

Can be useful if your site is getting hammered by spambots. Some nice examples from around the net are at Fight Blog Spam With Apache... Keep in mind the HTTP_USER_AGENT is directly from the client, so its easy to spoof / change. Instead use mod_security for a much better solution.

SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent "^Bandit" bad_bot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent "^Baiduspider" bad_bot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent "^BatchFTP" bad_bot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent "^Bigfoot" bad_bot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent "^Black.Hole" bad_bot
 
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from All
Deny from env=bad_bot

Allow Search robots

This does the opposite of above, allowing ONLY these web robots access. Other than rogue robots, configuring your robots.txt file correctly will keep most robots where you want them.

SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent .*google.* search_robot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent .*yahoo.* search_robot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent .*bot.* search_robot
SetEnvIfNoCase User-Agent .*ask.* search_robot
 
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from All
Allow from env=search_robot

SetEnvIf Directive

The SetEnvIf directive defines environment variables based on attributes of the request. The attribute specified in the first argument can be one of three things:

1. An HTTP request header field (see RFC2616 for more information about these); for example: Host, User-Agent, Referer, and Accept-Language. A regular expression may be used to specify a set of request headers.
2. One of the following aspects of the request:
   • Remote_Host - the hostname (if available) of the client making the request
   • Remote_Addr - the IP address of the client making the request
   • Server_Addr - the IP address of the server on which the request was received (only with versions later than 2.0.43)
   • Request_Method - the name of the method being used (GET, POST, et cetera)
   • Request_Protocol - the name and version of the protocol with which the request was made (e.g., "HTTP/0.9", "HTTP/1.1", etc.)
   • Request_URI - the resource requested on the HTTP request line -- generally the portion of the URL following the scheme and host portion without the query string. See the RewriteCond directive of mod_rewrite for extra information on how to match your query string.
3. The name of an environment variable in the list of those associated with the request. This allows SetEnvIf directives to test against the result of prior matches. Only those environment variables defined by earlier SetEnvIf[NoCase] directives are available for testing in this manner. 'Earlier' means that they were defined at a broader scope (such as server-wide) or previously in the current directive's scope. Environment variables will be considered only if there was no match among request characteristics and a regular expression was not used for the attribute.

The second argument (regex) is a regular expression. If the regex matches against the attribute, then the remainder of the arguments are evaluated.

The rest of the arguments give the names of variables to set, and optionally values to which they should be set. These take the form of

1. varname
2. !varname
3. varname=value

In the first form, the value will be set to "1". The second will remove the given variable if already defined, and the third will set the variable to the literal value given by value. Since version 2.0.51 Apache will recognize occurrences of $1..$9 within value and replace them by parenthesized subexpressions of regex.

SetEnvIf Example:

SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.gif$" object_is_image=gif
SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.jpg$" object_is_image=jpg
SetEnvIf Request_URI "\.xbm$" object_is_image=xbm
SetEnvIf Referer www\.askapache\.com intra_site_referral
SetEnvIf object_is_image xbm XBIT_PROCESSING=1
SetEnvIf ^SETENVIF*  ^[a-z].*  HAS_SETENVIF

The first three will set the environment variable object_is_image if the request was for an image file, and the fourth sets intra_site_referral if the referring page was somewhere on the www.askapache.com Web site.

The last example will set environment variable HAS_SETENVIF if the request contains any headers that begin with "SETENVIF" whose values begins with any character in the set [a-z].
