httpd RPM grants exec permissions by default on /var/www directories

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • We installed httpd as an RPM. We note that exec permissions are granted by default for all users on /var/www directories. Is there a reason for this?

Environment

  • JBoss Core Services
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
  • Red Hat Software Collections (RHSCL)
  • Apache httpd 2.4.x
