Impact

The impact of detecting the ColdFusion Administrator login panel is primarily informational. It indicates that the login panel is accessible and can be used to manage the ColdFusion server. However, it does not provide any information about the security posture or potential vulnerabilities of the server.

How the module works?

The "ColdFusion Administrator Login Panel - Detect" module works by sending HTTP requests to the target server and matching the responses against predefined conditions. The module uses two matching conditions:

- Word Matcher: The module checks if the response contains the phrase "ColdFusion Administrator Login". This indicates the presence of the login panel. - Status Matcher: The module verifies that the HTTP response status is 200, indicating a successful request. This ensures that the login panel is accessible.

By combining these matching conditions, the module determines whether the ColdFusion Administrator login panel is present on the target server.

Example HTTP request:

GET /admin/login.cfm HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com

The module sends this request to the target server and checks the response for the matching conditions.
