Software versions could be stronger

Your website reveals exact software versions. This is a possible exposure, not a confirmed vulnerability.

What is version disclosure?

Some servers and website platforms announce which software and version they run, like "Apache/2.4.41" or "WordPress 6.2".This isn't a vulnerability by itself. It's a possible exposure: if that version has known problems, it tells attackers exactly what to try. Hiding it is quick, but keeping the software updated matters most.
