Impact

The impact of detecting the WampServer panel is primarily informational. It helps users identify if WampServer is being used on a target system. This information can be useful for security assessments and understanding the technology stack of a web application.

How does the module work?

The "WampServer 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 WampServer panel is present.

One of the matching conditions used by this module is to check if the response body contains the HTML title tag "<title>WAMPSERVER Homepage</title>". Additionally, it verifies that the HTTP response status is 200, indicating a successful request.

By combining these matching conditions, the module can accurately detect the presence of the WampServer panel.

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

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com

The module then analyzes the response to determine if it matches the specified conditions.
