Http X Aspnet Mvc Version Leak

Description

Detects when an ASP.NET MVC application exposes its framework version through the X-AspNetMvc-Version HTTP response header. Disclosing framework versions helps attackers identify potentially vulnerable versions to target for exploitation.

Weakness:

235 - Technical information leak - Headers

Category: Information Collection

Detection Strategy

    Examines HTTP response headers for presence of X-AspNetMvc-Version header

    Reports a vulnerability if the X-AspNetMvc-Version header is found in the response

    The header value containing the version number is captured as evidence
