Description
Discussion Text
Web server documentation, sample code, example applications, and tutorials may be an exploitable threat to a web server because this type of code has not been evaluated and approved. A production web server must only contain components that are operationally necessary (e.g., compiled code, scripts, web-content, etc.).
Any documentation, sample code, example applications, and tutorials must be removed from a production web server. To make certain that the documentation and code are not installed or uninstalled completely; the web server must offer an option as part of the installation process to exclude these packages or to uninstall the packages if necessary.
