RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^(TRACE|TRACK)
RewriteRule .* - [F]

These directives disable the TRACE and TRACK methods via the following process:

  • RewriteEngine on — enables Apache’s rewrite module (this directive is not required if already present in your htaccess file)
  • RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^(TRACE|TRACK) — targets all TRACE and TRACK request methods for the following rule
  • RewriteRule .* - [F] — return a 403 Forbidden error response for all matched conditions (i.e., all TRACE and TRACK methods)
