Synopsis

DotNetNuke Administration Panel Login Form Detected

Description

DotNetNuke Administration Panel login has been detected on the target web application. This may present an attacker with an exploit vector which could be leveraged using other techniques, such as a Brute-Force or Dictionary Attack, allowing an attacker to gain access to administrative functionality.

Solution

Review if the site requires the login functionality to be exposed for correct operation, and if possible restrict access to the administrative functionality, limiting access to known IP Addresses.
