Protecting the WEB-INF Directory - Apachee

Hi all,

There is a security bug reported at:
http://www.westpoint.ltd.uk/advisories/wp-02-0002.txt 

Which encounter the possibility to retrieve configuration files from tomcat
WEB-INF directory,
Through web servers used to route requests to tomcat.

In the IIS the isapi_redirect.dll Protects us by denying all request to a
URL includes the WEB-INF pattern.

I need to know how can I implement it in Apache.

Thanks Asaf
