This module has a severity level of high, indicating that the identified vulnerabilities can have a significant impact on the security and functionality of the affected websites.

Impact

If a Tilda website is found to be vulnerable to a takeover, it can result in unauthorized individuals gaining control over the website. This can lead to various malicious activities, such as defacement, data theft, or spreading malware. It is crucial to address any identified vulnerabilities promptly to prevent potential damage to the website and its users.

How the module works?

The "tilda takeover detection" module utilizes HTTP request templates and matching conditions to identify potential takeover vulnerabilities. It analyzes the website's response to specific requests and checks for indicators of misconfiguration or vulnerability.

For example, one of the matching conditions used by this module is to check if the website's response contains the phrase "<title>Please renew your subscription</title>". If this phrase is found, it indicates a potential vulnerability related to subscription management.

The module also checks for other conditions, such as the absence of specific phrases or the presence of certain DSL (Domain Specific Language) rules. These conditions help identify various types of misconfigurations or vulnerabilities that could be exploited for a takeover.

By running this module as part of a scanning process, website owners can proactively detect and address potential takeover vulnerabilities in their Tilda websites, enhancing their overall security posture.
