Package: apache2 Version: 2.4.61-1~deb12u1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I recently upgraded from Bullseye to Bookworm. Afterwards, I noticed that CGI scripts were active on the default host. I investigated it and found that the upgrade seemed to have re-enabled config-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf which I had intentionally disabled previously, because I didn't want to have CGI enabled globally, but rather enable it on a virtual host basis. This created a risk because now CGI scripts could be invoked thru the default host with no access restrictions. I believe there should be a mechanism that allows admins to permanently block certain config fragments, without Debian package config/upgrade mechanism interfering and re-enabling it. (I hope I'm not missing anything, I re-checked all default config files before posting this report. I chose not to include my modified config files, as they contain confidential info.) Thank you.
