Server information disclosure explained
What it is
Server information disclosure means response headers (e.g. Server, X-Powered-By) or error pages reveal the server type, version, or framework. Attackers use this to target known vulnerabilities.
Why it matters
Leaking server/version info makes it easier for attackers to choose exploits. Best practice is to suppress or genericize these headers in production. Monitoring catches disclosure so you can harden.
How Barrion checks it
Barrion inspects response headers for Server, X-Powered-By, X-AspNet-Version, and similar. We report when server or platform details are exposed and suggest removing or genericizing them. Passive header inspection only.
