Restrict upload of potentially malicious files into the repository

A Webtop Administrator can restrict the upload of potentially malicious files into the repository, through Webtop, by configuring the wdk/app.xml file.

The Administrator must specify the file formats that are not to be uploaded into the repository, in the <malicious_file_extensions_list>.<extensions_list> element, of the wdk/app.xml file, using a comma as a delimiter.

Example 2.1. Listing file formats in the <malicious_file_extensions_list>.<extensions_list> element

<malicious_file_extensions_list>
	<extensions_list>exe,bat,msi</extensions_list>
</malicious_file_extensions_list>

This feature is applicable only to files that are imported or checked into the repository, from the 6.7 SP1 release onwards.

Note

By default, no file formats are specified in the <malicious_file_extensions_list>.<extensions_list> element. Therefore, this feature is turned off by default.
