Discussion

ServerMask Improper Header Anonymization Weakness

It is reported that ServerMask contains a weakness that allows servers to be identified as IIS, even when the product is functioning as advertised.

Unique traits of IIS servers are not properly filtered or altered in any way. This allows an attacker to remotely discern the type of web server, even in the presence of the ServerMask software.

ServerMask versions 2.2 and prior are reported to contain this weakness.
