Checking for jboss authentication bypass

[Martin Holst Swende <martin () swende se>]

Hi list,

I threw together a script to check if a server is vulnerable to jboss
authentication bypass. It makes
a get request to /jmx-console first to see if it is a jboss and whether
it requires authentication. If  it is and does,
it tries a head-request. A http 500 response means it is vulnerable.

As I wrote it, I copy-pasted a bit from other http-scripts. I was
wondering; is this the correct way to do it
if I want it to be able to work also against http or http-alt tunneled
over https ?

Regards,
Martin Holst Swende
