This scanner detects the presence of the Teradici PCoIP Zero Client login panel on web-facing systems. Panel Detection involves identifying publicly accessible login portals that might be vulnerable or improperly configured. It is crucial to ensure that such panels are secured to prevent unauthorized access and potential information disclosure. The detection process checks for specific HTML elements and stylesheets in the login page to confirm its presence. By identifying these panels, security teams can take necessary actions to restrict access or reinforce security controls. Detecting such panels is a proactive step in protecting enterprise networks from unauthorized intrusions.

The detection focuses on web elements and status codes indicative of the PCoIP Zero Client login panel. It verifies the presence of distinct text and stylesheets like "

PCoIP® Zero Client

" and "terastyle.css" on the login page. This meticulous checking ensures that the detection is accurate and minimizes false positives. The scanner also ensures the HTTP response status is 200, confirming the accessibility of the login panel. Aligning with these parameters, the template provides a reliable means to detect potentially exposed login panels. This technical methodology enhances the ability of security teams to monitor and secure remote client interfaces.

Exposing login panels can lead to unauthorized access if not properly secured. Attackers may exploit these vulnerabilities to gain entry into the system and compromise sensitive data. An open Teradici PCoIP Zero Client login panel could be a target for brute force attacks, where malicious actors attempt multiple password combinations. Additionally, information displayed on the login panel could be leveraged for social engineering attacks. Preventing unauthorized access to these panels is critical in maintaining the security posture of the organization. Regular monitoring and timely remediation can mitigate these risks effectively.
