The vCenter VAMI service must have resource mappings set to disable the serving of certain file types.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

Resource mapping is the process of tying a particular file type to a process in the web server that can serve that type of file to a requesting client and to identify which file types are not to be delivered to a client. By not specifying which files can and which files cannot be served to a user, VAMI could deliver sensitive files.
