Audit required: Exposure of sensitive headers RS-A1004

Security

cwe-201 owasp top 10

Use of headers such as "Server", "X-Powered-By" and "X-AspNet-Version" can leak sensitive information of your application and server. Avoid using these headers if possible.

The following possible response headers should be avoided for security reasons:

  • Server - Specifies web server version.
  • X-Powered-By - Indicates that the website is "powered by ASP.NET."
  • X-AspNet-Version - Specifies the version of ASP.NET used.

Bad practice

use http::header::{HeaderMap, SERVER};

let mut map = HeaderMap::new();
map.insert(SERVER, "Apache/2.4.1 (Unix)".parse().unwrap());
