How TheSiteFuse checks "Server/PHP version hidden"

Some servers display their exact version in HTTP headers (e.g., "Apache/2.4.51" or "PHP/8.1.2"). This check verifies whether the precise server or PHP version is publicly exposed.

Real-world impact of "Server/PHP version hidden"

Displaying the exact software version helps attackers look for known vulnerabilities for that specific version. Hiding it doesn't fully secure but complicates automated attack tooling.
