Impact

If misconfigurations or vulnerabilities are found in the Apache YARN ResourceManager panel, it could potentially lead to unauthorized access, data exposure, or other security risks. It is important to address any detected issues promptly to prevent potential exploitation.

How does the module work?

The module works by sending HTTP requests to the targeted Apache YARN ResourceManager panel and analyzing the responses. It uses specific matching conditions to identify if the panel is exposed or misconfigured.

For example, one of the matching conditions used in this module is to check if the response contains the words "hadoop", "resourcemanager", and "logged in as: dr.who". If all these words are present, it indicates that the panel is accessible and potentially misconfigured.

The module also provides additional metadata, such as the maximum number of requests allowed for this detection.
