Impact

This module aims to identify sensitive directories within the 1-flash-gallery plugin for WordPress. By detecting these directories, it helps website administrators ensure that proper security measures are in place to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access. The module does not directly exploit any vulnerabilities but provides insights into potential security risks.

How does the module work?

The "WordPress 1 flash gallery listing" module utilizes HTTP request templates and matching conditions to perform its scan. It sends GET requests to specific paths associated with the 1-flash-gallery plugin, such as "/wp-content/plugins/1-flash-gallery/" and "/blog/wp-content/plugins/1-flash-gallery/". The module then applies matching conditions to the responses received from these requests.

For this module, the matching conditions include:

- Checking if the response contains the phrase "Index of" and "/wp-content/plugins/1-flash-gallery". - Verifying that the response status is 200 (indicating a successful request).

If both matching conditions are met, the module considers the directory as potentially sensitive. The module can perform multiple requests, but the maximum number of requests for this module is set to 2.

By analyzing the responses and matching conditions, the module provides insights into the presence of sensitive directories within the 1-flash-gallery plugin.
