Security Test: Frontend Software Component Leak¶

Scanner(s) Support¶

Description¶

Default Severity: low

Software component leaks happen when a system accidentally reveals details about the software it uses, giving attackers clues about potential weaknesses. This typically occurs when default settings aren’t changed or when error and debug messages aren’t properly hidden, making it easier for attackers to identify outdated or vulnerable components. If these leaks go unaddressed, they can significantly increase the risk of compromise, as attackers know exactly where to look for security flaws within your system.
