hmmm, one more time, the 404 detection is working poorly... it seems
that in your case the response is not being detected as a 404, so it's
analyzed:
# Check if it's a Fronpage Info file
if not is_404( response ):
fuzzable_return_value.extend(
self._createFuzzableRequests( response ) )
self._analyze_response( response )
return fuzzable_return_value
The analysis result is a "fake FrontPage Configuration..." because the
code is trying to parse the 404 and fails...
This is not a bug in the discovery.front_page plugin, it's a much
serious bug in the 404 detection in the framework. I'll work with this
over the evening.
Thanks for reporting, and please keep doing it =)
Cheers,
