Display the OS version installed on a hosting
This guide explains how to find out the operating system version of the server for your Web Hosting.
Preamble
- Even if Debian or a package seems outdated, the displayed versions do not present any vulnerabilities:
- Infomaniak keeps them up to date via regular internal patches on all components and systems used.
- The versions are chosen for their stability and then strengthened by security measures that standard tests do not detect.
- If you or your clients identify a vulnerability in an Infomaniak product, please submit a POC. Although rare, these cases are handled quickly.
- Data security is the responsibility of the user: Infomaniak cannot be held responsible for poor management or use of access credentials.
