[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-5028) ability to removethe response-header Server:Apache-Coyote/1.1

nimo stephan created AS7-5028: --------------------------------- Summary: ability to removethe response-header Server:Apache-Coyote/1.1 Key: AS7-5028 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5028 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Feature Request Affects Versions: 7.1.1.Final Reporter: nimo stephan Jboss AS 7 includes the following HTTP-Header for every response: Server:Apache-Coyote/1.1 For security issues, it is good to hide this header so attackers cannot easily derivate its underlying technology (which, in this case, indicates that Java-Technology/Tomcat is used). Possible solutions is: Invent a new system-property "org.jboss.as.sendServerHeader" which can be set, for example, in standalone.xml: <system-properties> <property name="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol.SERVER" value=""/> <property name="org.jboss.as.sendServerHeader" value="false"/> </system-properties> Note: - leaving the value of "org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol.SERVER" results in printing the Server-Header also, instead of to go away. However, with that value I can rename the Server-Header, but not deleting it. - At first, I have thought this is a JSF-Rendering-Issue, so I created that issue here http://java.net/jira/browse/JAVASERVERFACES-2445, but it stated out that printing the Server-Header is a "application server level concern". -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
