ChurchCRM is used by church groups and organizations worldwide to manage church records and interactions. It provides functionalities to track members, manage groups, schedule events, and provide assistance through volunteer assessments. The service is accessed via a web interface and can be deployed on premises or in the cloud. Churches use ChurchCRM to maintain an effective community engagement strategy. It is often chosen by churches due to its open source nature and customizable features. ChurchCRM is designed to support seamless integration and ease of use for users at every level of technical expertise.
The panel detection vulnerability allows users to identify the presence of ChurchCRM on a server. Detection of a ChurchCRM panel can be a preliminary indication of the setup, aiding further reconnaissance. The objective of panel detection is to determine if the ChurchCRM login interface is accessible. Uncontrolled exposure of administrative panels may lead to unauthorized access. Detection is necessary to evaluate system defense boundaries. Through this process, administrators can gauge the exposure of their ChurchCRM configuration publicly.
The detection relies on identifying specific HTML elements and response codes from the ChurchCRM login page. The GET request to the "/session/begin" URL of the deployment site returns a response, which is checked for page titles and keywords specific to ChurchCRM. HTTP status codes play a crucial role in confirming successful communication. Matchers look for elements within the response body, assuring these elements align with a legitimate ChurchCRM page. This technique enables the identification of exposed ChurchCRM login panels.
If a ChurchCRM panel is widely accessible without restrictions, it might lead to potential data exposure. Unauthorized users could find administrative entry points at risk of attempts to login using default or brute-force methods. Moreover, it might reveal information critical for targeted attacks on the infrastructure. Such exposure facilitates internal reconnaissance attempts by adversaries. Detecting and mitigating such exposed panels is essential to safeguard sensitive data managed within the ChurchCRM instance.
