Security Researcher Detected: You might have ended up here because your site vulnerability scanner found something interesting. Hi! I'm a security engineer and I'm having a good time interacting with the people and bots that are interested in information security.
You will hopefully find this site is well-secured and I'm not interested in being hacked. I'm interested in learning about how people try to hack me, though.
What is this endpoint?
WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml
Jetty
What an attacker could do
This Jetty deployment descriptor reveals JNDI datasource definitions, including database connection strings and credentials, plus internal resource bindings, enabling direct backend database access. WEB-INF should never be served, so its exposure indicates a path-traversal or misconfiguration flaw.
How to defend it
Ensure the servlet container enforces the WEB-INF access restriction so its contents are never served over HTTP, and patch any path-traversal or alias misconfiguration that allows reading WEB-INF resources.
