Supervisor Unauth Dashboard Scanner

This scanner is designed to detect the presence of an unauthorized Supervisor Dashboard. Supervisor Dashboard is a web-based interface commonly used for managing and monitoring systems in real-time. It is typically deployed by IT administrators and system managers to streamline operations and maintain system performance. The dashboard offers features like status monitoring, action execution, and system state visibility, thereby aiding in efficient system management. However, if not configured correctly, such platforms can expose sensitive system information and control capabilities to unauthorized users. Ensuring that default credentials are changed and access control measures are implemented is vital for securing these systems.

This scanner identifies the vulnerability of an unauthenticated Supervisor Dashboard access. Unauthorized access to such dashboards can potentially expose critical information about the system's status and allow an attacker to execute various actions. A lack of proper authentication mechanisms can lead to this exposure, making it crucial to verify and secure access to such interfaces. The scanner searches for specific indicators of a dashboard being accessed without authentication, such as the presence of dashboard-related text and a 200 status code to confirm access.

The vulnerability targeted by this scanner generally involves accessing URLs of the Supervisor Dashboard without any authentication requirements. The detection relies on checking the HTTP response for specific keywords such as "Supervisor Status," "State," and "Action" and ensuring the response status is 200. This implies the dashboard is accessible and displays its content freely to any visitor who reaches the base URL. The lack of authentication and security configurations can lead to significant exposure concerns.

If this vulnerability is left unchecked, malicious actors can manipulate the system or cause disruptions. They might monitor system status, observe critical operational information, or execute actions that could hamper performance or security. In worst-case scenarios, attackers could manipulate system functions to achieve undesirable outcomes or access sensitive system data. This highlights the importance of enforcing stringent access controls and continuous monitoring.
