OVPN Config Download

What is the "OVPN Config Download" module?

The "OVPN Config Download" module is a test case designed to detect misconfigurations related to the OVPN (OpenVPN) configuration download feature. It targets websites that have an exposed OVPN configuration file, which can potentially lead to security vulnerabilities.

This module has a severity level of low.

Impact

If the OVPN configuration file is exposed, it can provide unauthorized access to sensitive information, such as server credentials and network configurations. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to gain unauthorized access to the network and potentially compromise the security of the system.

How the module works?

The "OVPN Config Download" module works by sending HTTP requests to the target website and checking for specific conditions. It uses matching conditions to identify websites that have the keywords "OVPN Config Download" or "Config List" in the body of the response. Additionally, it verifies that the HTTP response status is 200 (OK).

By detecting these conditions, the module can identify websites that have an exposed OVPN configuration file. This information can then be used to report the vulnerability and take appropriate actions to secure the system.

Here is an example of an HTTP request that the module may send:

GET /ovpn-config-download HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
User-Agent: Vidoc-Scanner/1.0

The module matches the response against the following conditions:

- The response body contains the keywords "OVPN Config Download" or "Config List". - The HTTP response status is 200 (OK).

If both conditions are met, the module considers the website vulnerable to OVPN configuration exposure.
