The "XAMPP Default Page" module is designed to detect the presence of the default XAMPP page on a web server. XAMPP is a popular open-source software stack that includes Apache, MySQL, PHP, and Perl. This module focuses on identifying the default page of XAMPP, which can provide valuable information about the server's configuration.
This module has an informative severity level, meaning it provides valuable insights but does not indicate a vulnerability or misconfiguration.

This module does not have a direct impact on the server or application. It simply detects the presence of the XAMPP default page, which can be useful for identifying the underlying software stack and potential security risks associated with outdated or misconfigured components.
The "XAMPP Default Page" module works by sending a GET request to the "/dashboard/" path of the target web server. It then applies two matching conditions to determine if the response indicates the presence of the XAMPP default page:
- Title Matching: The module checks if the response HTML contains the title tag "<title>Welcome to XAMPP</title>
". This indicates that the page is the default XAMPP page.
- Status Code Matching: The module verifies that the response status code is 200, indicating a successful request.
If both conditions are met, the module reports a match, indicating the presence of the XAMPP default page.
