What is x-flash-version in a HTTP header?

0

I am analysing a PCAP file and it contains a field "x-flash-version: 10,0,32,18". What is this field? Does it refer to the flash version on the PC? Where can I find more info about this field?

Prior to the deprecation of the "X-" format (see RFC 6648) any X- prefixed header is an eXperimental or non-standard additional header. In this case it would seem that some application is reporting the version of flash in use.
