Impact

How does the module work?

The "Movable Type Pro Login Panel - Detect" module works by sending HTTP requests to specific paths associated with the Movable Type Pro login panel, such as "/mt/admin" and "/mt.cgi". It then applies matching conditions to determine if the login panel is present.

One example of a matching condition is checking the response body for the presence of the phrase "Movable Type Pro". Additionally, the module verifies that the HTTP response status is 200, indicating a successful request.

By combining these matching conditions, the module can accurately detect the Movable Type Pro login panel.

For example, the module may send a GET request to "/mt/admin" or "/mt.cgi" and expect to find the phrase "Movable Type Pro" in the response body with a status code of 200.

The module also includes metadata such as the maximum number of requests (2) and a Shodan query for further exploration.
