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.

Liveness Probe Endpoint

What an attacker could do

A liveness probe endpoint left public confirms the application is running and may leak framework defaults, aiding fingerprinting and availability-targeting reconnaissance.

How to defend it

Restrict liveness endpoints to the orchestrator's internal network, return a bare status with no version or component detail, and exclude them from public routing.
