OS detection through cPanel

Vulnerability Tests

Hi, I think we can detect Linux hosts through cPanel HTTP server banner:

Banner: Server: cPanel
Identified from: HTTP Server banner on port 2077/tcp

Banner: Server: cPanel
Identified from: HTTP Server banner on port 2078/tcp

Banner: Server: cPanel
Identified from: HTTP Server banner on port 2079/tcp

Banner: Server: cPanel
Identified from: HTTP Server banner on port 2080/tcp

The Installation | cPanel & WHM Documentation page only has a guide to install the application on Linux.

Thanks a lot for your posting and the suggestion.

A detection from the provided banner as well as a similar one for cPanel has been added and OS detection improvements should be included in the feed today or the day after.
