Impact
the default .htaccess file has some restrictions in the access to PHP files to only allow specific PHP files to be executed in the root of the application.
This logic isn't correct, as the regex in the second FilesMatch only checks the filename, not the full path.
Patches
Please upgrade to 3.3.5 or 4.2.0
