Error Stack Traces Exposed

Error responses may be exposing detailed stack traces or debug information. This reveals internal code structure and file paths to potential attackers.

Why This Matters

Stack traces can reveal framework versions, internal file paths, database structure, and code logic. Attackers can use this information to identify vulnerabilities and plan targeted attacks.

How to Fix

Framework-specific solutions and general best practices

Disable debug mode in production. Configure your application to show generic error pages to users while logging detailed errors server-side.
