There are more possibilities than just search engines to find files on a server. Out of date copy of wordpress or other 3rd party software that has known exploits and vulnerabilities that lets hack scripts placed in the site and/or let people execute commands from the bad software itself can make things lot s of fun.

I've many times tracked down hacks and trace through logs to track it all on a shared hosting servers, one of them was a "custom cms" that had an uploads directory. Once their admin was compromised, someone figured out that instead of uploading a image/pdf/word file, they could upload a .php file, call it, and woohoo, hack script letting them browse the server. (A very good reason why on shared hosting make sure accounts are locked down to only reading their own directory as much as possible)

This script will do all kinds of fun things, include one click find a list of all Apache writeable directories, so they can copy the script off to other sited hosted on the server...

After this was found, .htaccess was mosified for the uploads directory to make .php and other "executable" (as far as apache sees) to feed out as just a .txt file.

There are probably sites out there that tell how to do it, or people that lack morals who have learned how servers work.

How does that differ in

C0ldf1re — Sun, 29 May 2011 06:52:04 +0000

How does that differ in effect from just never allowing the public to know that the private directory is there, by telling the search engines to noindex any webpages that reference that directory?

Access Control benefit.

Access Control benefit. Simply put, you can deny visitors from accessing certain parts of your site. You might have a directory that contains scripts. Your server runs the scripts, but you do not want outsiders to have access to them.
