Drupal Version Check
An exposed Drupal version allows attackers to identify specific vulnerabilities. Learn how to hide this information and keep your site updated.
What this test checks
This test detects the Drupal version installed on your site via HTTP headers or meta tags. An exposed version enables attackers to search for specific vulnerabilities and exploit them. Outdated Drupal versions are a major cause of intrusions.
Our recommendation
Hide the Drupal version in headers and meta tags using a security module (e.g., Security Kit). Ensure Drupal and its modules are updated with the latest security patches. Enable automatic updates for minor versions.
