🚨 WordPress Misconfiguration: When 403 Isn’t Enough
🚨 In this video, I demonstrate a real-world WordPress misconfiguration where sensitive data is exposed through backup files.
Even when `wp-config.php` is protected with a 403 error, attackers can still discover:
👉 wp-config.php.save.1
👉 wp-config.php.bak
👉 wp-config.old
🔍 What you'll learn:
How directory brute forcing works
Why backup files are dangerous
How tools like dirsearch & wpscan help
How to secure your WordPress properly
⚠️ Disclaimer:
This video is for educational purposes only. All demonstrations are performed in a controlled lab environment.
🛡️ Fix this issue:
Remove backup files
Block wildcard sensitive files
Harden server configs
