:~# About Server :
-- Web Server = IIS-7.5
-- Server Type = Windows Server

:~# About Vulnerability :
The __VIEWSTATE parameter is not encrypted. To reduce the chance of someone intercepting the 
information stored in the ViewState, it is good design to encrypt the ViewState. 
To do this, set the machineKey validation type to AES. This instructs ASP.NET to encrypt the 
ViewState value using the Advanced Encryption Standard.

:~# Patch and Fix this Vulnerability :
For patching this vulnerability on Server, you must first open web.config file and add this line 
under the <system.web> element :
<machineKey validation="AES"/>
