Impact

This module aims to identify any misconfigurations or vulnerabilities in the Apache Flink login panel. If any issues are detected, it could potentially lead to unauthorized access to the system or sensitive information.

How the module works?

The "Apache Flink Login Panel - Detect" module works by sending HTTP requests to the target system and analyzing the responses based on predefined matching conditions. It checks for the presence of specific HTML elements, such as the title tag containing the text "Apache Flink Web Dashboard". If the matching conditions are met, the module reports a potential misconfiguration or vulnerability related to the login panel.

Here is an example of an HTTP request that may be sent by this module:

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
User-Agent: Vidoc-Scanner

The module uses matching conditions, such as the presence of the title tag, to determine if the target system exhibits the expected behavior. These conditions are defined in the module's JSON definition and are used to identify potential issues related to the Apache Flink login panel.
