- anonym29 4y agoYou're correct that the resources themselves should be secured and that security through obscurity is a bad practice (and an oxymoron, as obscurity doesn't actually provide security). That said, avoiding security through obscurity doesn't preclude you from giving away less information than is being given away here, nor does it make the act of removing that information entirely pointless. While this isn't the only way that the Drupal version can be identified, it is one, and there's no guarantee your adversary will find it via other avenues. Also keep in mind that with absolutely nothing changing on Tesla's end, this may go from secure to vulnerable, should, for instance, a remotely exploitable vulnerability in the running version of Drupal be discovered and published in the future.
