Impact

If the Mautic Installer Exposure module detects a misconfiguration, it means that the Mautic installation process is not properly secured. This can result in various security risks, such as unauthorized access to the Mautic installer, potential exposure of sensitive information during the installation process, or the ability for attackers to manipulate the installation environment.

How does the module work?

The Mautic Installer Exposure module works by sending HTTP requests to the target Mautic installation and analyzing the responses based on predefined matching conditions. It checks for specific patterns in the response body, headers, and status codes to determine if the Mautic installer is exposed or if there are any misconfigurations.

For example, one of the matching conditions may involve checking if the response body contains the phrases "Mautic Installation - Environment Check" and "Ready to Install!". Additionally, it verifies that the response header includes the content type "text/html" and that the HTTP status code is 200 (OK).

By evaluating these conditions, the module can identify potential misconfigurations in the Mautic installation process and report them as vulnerabilities.
