The Frappe Framework is a versatile web application development framework used by developers to build custom business applications. It is widely used by businesses and developers who need a customizable platform for creating dynamic apps. Being an open-source framework, Frappe's flexibility and integration capabilities make it popular in enterprise environments. It powers various products and solutions, including ERPNext, which is an open-source ERP system. The framework supports robust backend capabilities along with modern frontend aesthetics, catering to comprehensive business needs. Widely adopted for its ease of customizability, it empowers developers to streamline and automate business processes efficiently.

The detection capability of this scanner revolves around identifying the presence of Frappe Framework installations across web assets. This technology detection can help organizations ensure their Frappe Framework installations are correctly configured. Identifying the use of this framework is crucial for maintaining the security posture of digital assets. Detecting Frappe Framework helps administrate patches and security updates promptly. The timely identification allows for the evaluation of security compliance against industry standards. Early detection provides the opportunity for organizations to assess security risks associated with using the framework.

The scanner achieves detection by sending HTTP GET requests to the target URLs, looking for specific indicators in the response which suggest the presence of Frappe Framework. These indicators can be specific strings like "frappe.csrf_token", "frappe.boot", or "frappe-web.bundle" within the webpage content. A positive match confirms the existence of a Frappe Framework instance on the examined URL. The scan stops once the first positive match is found to ensure efficient scanning. Multiple URLs may be checked as part of the detection process to comprehensively cover potential digital assets. Detailed checks help ascertain the framework's use without false positives by examining server responses thoroughly.

When Frappe Framework is detected on an asset, there could be potential exposures if not correctly secured. Unpatched framework installations might be vulnerable to known exploits. Lack of configuration hardening could lead to unauthorized access or data leaks. Developers must ensure secure setups to prevent unauthorized actions and data modifications. Routine security assessments and patch updates are necessary to mitigate risks. Detecting the framework allows administrators to prioritize security measures commensurate with the potential exposure risks identified.
