Apache Spark Panel - Detect

What is the "Apache Spark Panel - Detect?"

The "Apache Spark Panel - Detect" module is designed to detect the presence of the Apache Spark panel. Apache Spark is a powerful open-source data processing engine that provides high-speed data analytics and processing capabilities. This module focuses on identifying instances of the Apache Spark panel, which can help in assessing the security posture of the target system.

This module has an informative severity level, meaning it provides valuable information without indicating any immediate vulnerabilities or misconfigurations.

Impact

The detection of the Apache Spark panel does not directly imply any specific impact or vulnerability. However, it can indicate the presence of a potentially powerful data processing engine, which may require additional security measures to protect sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access.

How does the module work?

The "Apache Spark Panel - Detect" module utilizes HTTP request templates and matching conditions to identify instances of the Apache Spark panel. It performs the following checks:

- It searches for the presence of the string "url=servlet/hype" in the response body. - It verifies that the HTTP response status is 200 (OK).

If both conditions are met, the module considers the presence of the Apache Spark panel as detected.

Here is an example of an HTTP request that the module may send:

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com

The module then analyzes the response to determine if it matches the specified conditions.

It's important to note that this module only detects the presence of the Apache Spark panel and does not perform any further analysis or exploitation.
