Extended Description

ASP .NET applications can be configured to produce debug binaries. These binaries give detailed debugging messages and should not be used in production environments. Debug binaries are meant to be used in a development or testing environment and can pose a security risk if they are deployed to production.

Example Vulnerable Codes

Example - 1

The file web.config contains the debug mode setting. Setting debug to "true" will let the browser display debugging information.



<compilationdefaultLanguage="c#"debug="true"/>...<system.web></system.web><?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><configuration></configuration>

Change the debug mode to false when the application is deployed into production.
