Guys,

We've had a pen test done on one of the apps we look after and they an issue which I'd
like a little guidance on ...

(Accept that these guys are specifically sending iffy requests to cause the system to 
break or detail
what versions of the code is being used to provide ways of hacking in ..)

If you have a page that does
request.getParameter("paramName")
and you specify

page.jsp?paramName=%

The result is an exception report that details what version of tomcat you are running
(I've tried this with 4.1.29 and it does make a wonderful exception report!)

Anyone seen this before ?
Anyone got a fix ?


Thanks

David
