What is the "Apache Mesos - Panel Detect" module?

The "Apache Mesos - Panel Detect" module is designed to detect the presence of the Apache Mesos panel. Apache Mesos is a distributed systems kernel that enables the efficient sharing of resources across multiple applications or frameworks. This module focuses on identifying the panel, which can provide valuable insights into the configuration and potential vulnerabilities of the Apache Mesos installation.

This module has an informative severity level, meaning it provides valuable information but does not indicate an immediate security risk.

Impact

The detection of the Apache Mesos panel does not directly imply any impact or vulnerability. However, it can serve as a starting point for further analysis and assessment of the Apache Mesos installation. By identifying the panel, administrators can gain insights into the configuration and potential security risks associated with the Apache Mesos deployment.

How does the module work?

The "Apache Mesos - Panel Detect" module works by sending an HTTP GET request to the target host on port 5050. It then applies two matching conditions to determine if the Apache Mesos panel is present:

- The module checks the response body for the presence of the "<title>Mesos</title>" and "Apache" keywords. If both keywords are found, it indicates the presence of the Apache Mesos panel. - The module also verifies that the HTTP response status code is 200, indicating a successful request. This condition further confirms the presence of the Apache Mesos panel.

By combining these matching conditions, the module can accurately detect the Apache Mesos panel.
