VCLD-80-000033 - The vCenter VAMI service must have resource mappings set to disable the serving of certain file types.
Information
Resource mapping is the process of tying a particular file type to a process in the web server that can serve that type of file to a requesting client and to identify which file types are not to be delivered to a client.By not specifying which files can and which files cannot be served to a user, VAMI could deliver sensitive files.
Solution
Navigate to and open:/var/lib/vmware/cap-lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
Add or reconfigure the following value:
url.access-deny = ( "~", ".inc" )
Restart the service with the following command:
# systemctl restart cap-lighttpd
