files likes of README.md is public
Unknown
Vulnerability Details
A readme (or read me) file contains information about other files in a directory or archive and is commonly distributed with computersoftware. Such a file is usually a text file called README.TXT, README.md, README.1ST, READ.ME, or simply README, although someMicrosoft Windows software may occasionally include a README.WRI, README.RTF, or README.DOC. The name is chosen so that users unaware of the existence of this type of file would be drawn to read it. It is traditionally written in upper case so that on case-preserving environments using an ASCIIbetical ordering, the name will appear near the beginning of a directory listing (since upper-case letters sort before lower-case letters in ASCIIbetical ordering)..

You don't have permission to access /.htaccess on this server.
The error is generated when there is no index file in the requested
directory and the server or application is not configured to reveal
the directory contents. This, however, indicates that the directory
exists.

If the server is unable to find a file with any of the names listed in
its configuration, it may either return an error (generally 404 Not
Found) or generate its own index page listing the files in the
directory. It may also return a 403 Index Listing Forbidden. Usually
this option is also configurable
solution:-

Please clean the file and add the following code
RewriteEngine on
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
