Impact

This module does not have a direct impact on the system being scanned. It simply detects the presence of the SaltGUI login panel, providing information about its existence.

How does the module work?

The "SaltGUI Login Panel - Detect" module works by sending HTTP requests to the target system and analyzing the responses. It uses specific matching conditions to determine if the SaltGUI login panel is present.

One of the matching conditions is a check for the presence of the "<title>SaltGUI</title>" tag in the body of the response. This indicates that the page being analyzed is the SaltGUI login panel.

Another matching condition checks the HTTP status code of the response, specifically for a status code of 200, which indicates a successful request.

By combining these matching conditions, the module can accurately detect the SaltGUI login panel.

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

GET /login HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
User-Agent: Vidoc-Scanner

The module then evaluates the response based on the matching conditions to determine if the SaltGUI login panel is present.
