How it was found

This information might help an attacker gain a greater understanding of the systems in use and potentially develop further attacks targeted at the specific version of Nginx.

Impact: An attacker might use the disclosed information to harvest specific security vulnerabilities for the version identified.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to https://engineeringblog.yelp.com/images/previews/
  2. Now the nginx version: nginx/1.11.3 shows in bottom of the error page.

I hope this will fixed soon :))

Have a nice day guys, ~Ry
