in reply to How can I stop webdav exploits from hitting my server?

If you're not using DAV, you should try something like this in your apache config. I have not tested this.

<Limit SEARCH> Order Deny,Allow Deny from all </Limit>

    From the Apache docs for the <Limit> Directive:

    The method names listed can be one or more of: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, CONNECT, OPTIONS, PATCH, PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, MKCOL, COPY, MOVE, LOCK, and UNLOCK. The method name is case-sensitive. If GET is used it will also restrict HEAD requests. The TRACE method cannot be limited.
