SquirrelMail Login Panel - Detect

What is the "SquirrelMail Login Panel - Detect?" module?

The "SquirrelMail Login Panel - Detect" module is designed to detect the presence of the SquirrelMail login panel. SquirrelMail is a popular web-based email client that allows users to access their email accounts through a web browser. This module focuses on identifying instances of the SquirrelMail login panel, which can help in identifying potential misconfigurations or vulnerabilities.

This module has an informative severity level, meaning it provides valuable information but does not indicate a critical security issue. The original authors of this module are dhiyaneshDk and ritikchaddha.

Impact

The impact of detecting the SquirrelMail login panel is primarily related to identifying the presence of this specific software. It does not directly indicate any security vulnerabilities or misconfigurations. However, further analysis may be required to assess the security posture of the detected SquirrelMail login panel.

How does the module work?

The module works by sending HTTP requests to specific paths associated with the SquirrelMail login panel, such as "/src/login.php", "/webmail/src/login.php", and "/squirrelmail/src/login.php". It then applies matching conditions to determine if the response contains the keyword "SquirrelMail" in the body and if the HTTP status code is 200 (OK).

Here is an example of an HTTP request sent by the module:

GET /src/login.php

The matching conditions used by the module are:

- The response body must contain the word "SquirrelMail". - The HTTP status code must be 200 (OK).

These conditions are applied together using the "and" logical operator.
