Impact

This module aims to identify potential security risks or misconfigurations in the Opencast Admin panel. By detecting these issues, administrators can take appropriate actions to secure their Opencast installations and prevent unauthorized access or data breaches.

How does the module work?

The "Opencast Admin Panel Discovery" module utilizes HTTP request templates and matching conditions to identify the presence of the Opencast Admin panel. It sends a GET request to the "/admin-ng/login.html" path and applies the following matching conditions:

- The response body must contain the HTML tag "<title>Opencast</title>" - The response status code must be 200 (OK)

If both conditions are met, the module considers the Opencast Admin panel to be present.

Example HTTP request:

GET /admin-ng/login.html

Matching conditions:

- Response body must contain the HTML tag "<title>Opencast</title>" - Response status code must be 200 (OK)

By analyzing the response of the HTTP request, the module determines whether the Opencast Admin panel is accessible and functioning properly.
