Private IPv4 Address Disclosure

Impact: Informational

Description

Private IP addresses are used in private networks like local area networks (LANs). A private IP address can reveal information about the IP planning scheme used in the private network. This information does not create any direct impact on the target, though it can help attackers develop their attack.

Recommendation

This information is usually the result of an exception unless it is displayed intentionally. Consider removing it.
