Paparan berkas for Ruby on Rails
critical5 checks
Repositories, environment files, database dumps and backups are the fastest path from reconnaissance to full compromise.
What Ruby on Rails must have
- /.git and /.svn not reachable
- /.env, /.env.local and config backups return 404
- No .sql, .zip or .tar.gz dumps in the web root
- Debug consoles and admin panels not publicly reachable
- Directory listing disabled
How to fix it
- 1Serve nothing from the web root that is not meant to be public
- 2Block dotfiles at the edge and rotate every secret that was exposed
Ruby on Rails context
Ruby MVC framework with convention-over-configuration defaults.
Keep Rails patched (several critical deserialisation CVEs) and never expose /rails/info in production.
