Exception Report Disclosure (Tomcat)

An attacker can obtain information such as:

• Tomcat version.
• Physical file path of Tomcat files.
• Information about the generated exception.

This information might help an attacker gain more information and potentially focus on the development of further attacks to the target system.

Apply the following configuration to your web.xml file to prevent information leakage by applying custom error pages.

<error-page>
    <error-code>500</error-code>
    <location>/server_error.html</location>
</error-page>
