Impact

The presence of an Acunetix login panel indicates that the target web application is using Acunetix for vulnerability scanning. This information can be useful for security researchers and penetration testers to understand the security measures in place and potentially identify any misconfigurations or vulnerabilities associated with the Acunetix scanner itself.

How does the module work?

The Acunetix Login Panel module sends a GET request to the "/#/login" path of the target web application. It then applies two matching conditions to determine if an Acunetix login panel is present:

- The module checks the response body for the presence of the following HTML elements: "<title>Acunetix</title>" and "<acx-root></acx-root>". If both elements are found, it indicates the presence of an Acunetix login panel. - The module also checks the response status code, ensuring it is 200 (OK).

If both matching conditions are met, the module reports the detection of an Acunetix login panel.
